With Melissa Ann (September 2014, CA)
Milestones:
I am about 2 weeks from the 5-year anniversary of my first art nude shoot; that was in a London studio with England’s very well known art model Ivory Flame. Since then I’ve worked with over 50 art models, the majority of them multiple times. I started this Tumblr blog in September 2014, have attracted over 5000 followers, and this will be my 859th post. (My sincere appreciation to all of you that reblog my work with credits attached, and shame on those of you who don’t).
Hard to believe, it will also be the 100th post of my work with this very special muse, my friend Melissa Ann. She no longer models but she is visiting this very week, helping me work on my next book project which will be the best from this past 5 years. It’s been quite a journey, developing my artistic eye and technical skills. The best part however is getting to know talented fellow photographers and so many wonderful and fascinating models, all amazing women: confident, independent, savvy, adventurous, passionate about creating art and, obviously, beautiful. I’m most grateful for all that. I still call myself an amateur, but it is in the truest sense of the word – this is truly a labor of love.
