It is always a pleasure to work with Amy She is the consummate professional. She shows up on time ready to go and always delivers an exceptional performance. One of the hardest working Denver area models I know.
I love the playful energy of @andreaxburns and sense of movement brought to this set of images.
A fantastic somewhat impromptu shoot. We were scheduled to shoot with @jonnycreative, but he ended up going to ER this morning. Feel free to send him some love. So we headed to @rawphotographic studios and just played. Someone suggested this set up on the cyc wall and I love the editorial look. This
Behind the scenes from my Creative Exploration Meetup for photographers. We had no real agenda. We just played and tried to put a twist on the ordinary. When Jerry suggested we use gels (those colored pieces of plastic you put over lights to change their color), I said, "Sure! How can we use gels in
I love these images I got of @keileigh_skye. I finally got around to properly editing these to capture the era. She could not have looked any more the part!

I can imagine these images in a Vogue spread. It's more pics from my horse shoot with @strawberry_ravecake.
I wish I trusted my skills as a photographer as much as @laylaherreramx trusted that jacket would keep her covered. Not one nip slip the whole shoot.
My last post from my shoot at @jonnycreative for now. More shots from Atelier Alchimia to come later in the month. These two are a dynamic duo: @tionnabadakai and @csdresstoimpress. Styling by Jonny. As always, a big thanks to @jphsmits and the lovely @michsmitsje for inviting me to the party.
Another set from a shoot at Atelier Alchimia. It's a gorgeous studio owned by my friend @jonnycreative who has been becoming quite the celebrity. Not only is he a talented photographer, but his styling is superb. Thanks to Hans and Michelle for inviting me. Liza @live_lize deliver. And Jonny did the
So many talented artists in Denver! Thanks to Hans and Michelle for inviting me to shoot at Atelier Alchimia. Abby @copper.muse is fabulous. And big thanks to @jonnycreative for the fantastic styling.

Playing with a rainy day concept in a natural light studio. No rain. Just a spray bottle. These images are from a Meetup I hosted earlier in the spring. If you're interested in attending an event, just DM me and I'll make sure you get notifications.

Bodysocks for woman and chair. We got rid of the chair because it wasn't performing well.
Captured at my last Meetup workshop with the incredible @missmagnoliamuse.
Intimate lighting, beautiful textures, and a great creative crew.

Want to join the next one? Follow my Meetup group for upcoming photo events and model shoots. DM me for info.
This is my second time shooting with a horse thanks to my friend @sillvverr506 who invited me to join him. He's been living his dream these past couple summers by shooting regularly with horses. Check him out.

But the horse (Picasso) is really just a prop to showcase the lovely @strawberry_ravecak
The models with the ability to embody a character are the ones who can really take a photograph to another level. Although Nina is relatively young she has a very instinctive . Nina is one who can. She's a bit of a shape shifter. She doesn’t just strike a pose. She slips into a role. Quietly. Fully.
From my bodyscape workshop last week. Normally bodyscapes are dark (low key), but for this one I put Magnolia in front of a large softbox and let the light wrap around her for a high key look. Model: @missmagnoliamuse
One of my favorite bodyscape shots of all time. It took me a while to set up that Z-shape. Thank @latina.star for her patience.

I haven't done bodyscapes in awhile, but I just finished teaching a bodyscape workshop and it got me psyched about them again!
The lovely @laylaherreramx.

I used a reflector instead of flash for this one.
It's hard to go wrong with white on white.

Rachel is one of my favorites. I've hired her for a number of editorial shoots for magazines. She shows up ready to work and delivers. A really nice sense for line and for use of space.
