Dreaming wide awake...
This shoot was done in collaboration with my good friend and talented makeup artist and hairstylist Danielle! My house is filled with all sorts of hippy style and vintage clothing and furniture so it took nothing to put this hippy themed shoot together! The model did a great job and I am really happy with the result!

A concept art portrait called "The Weeper" while creating high-fashion in Milano. PS toning took the creative makeup an extra step by creating a pale desaturated skin while enhancing the makeup effect.
This photo was taken with the awesome Model @jennaasemota. An amown wheat field gives the background in this portrait and makes the necessary contrast.
Sehkmet - Egyptian Goddess
Allie was an incredible model (and an AWESOME personality to shoot for). She totally rocked the camera with her Sehkmet Egyptian Goddess look. We had the absolute MOST fun with her!!
I have many photos of Jennifer, each one is better than the next. Her incredible clear view and the naturalness. The photo really concerns me. I tried to put the feeling into black and white. The result is very impressing. The naturalness ... it means a lot to me.
Thank you, Jennifer!

The Crow...
This photoshoot was done in beautiful Los Cabos Mexico and I was so excited to collaborate with published & well known model Chrissy Santana and the talented hairstylist Lupita Gomez! I'm sure the staff at the hotel I was staying at must have really wondered about all the black feathers floating around my room from constructing the full costume, and winged cape! It was really beautiful to see her floating around the sandy beach in the costume and I am so happy I had the opportunity to work with these beautiful ladies!

A photo from one of my earliest shoots where I was trying to create a portrait of a redhead in nature while focusing on the perfect anatomy of the face and the emotional gaze.
The beautiful model @elinee_vdb lay on the ground of the heath. Surrounded by the wonderful long hair and the freckles created this wonderful expression.
It was a fantastic autumn day. Beautiful light, wonderful colors and a beautiful young woman :-) For another shooting I had already bought several meters of tulle, which I used for this picture as well. We played a bit with it and had a lot of fun.

Phoenix
Little Ellie is a star in front of the camera. We absolutely LOVE shooting with her as she always gives us our fiercest looks! Here, Ellie plays a phoenix, her favorite mythical creature, and we couldn't love it any more!
This photo was taken on a hot summer-afternoon in Graz ( Styria ). My model Jennifer I portrayed for the first time. I really like the meditativeness and the surprises at the shooting. Thereout this portrait accrued with wonderful natural light.
Thank you, Jennifer!

This is a soft-lit portrait of Catalina from Valentino bookings in Montevideo, Uruguay. It was her second photoshoot of her career and at the age of 14 she shows much promise.
This photo was taken in an alley in downtown Exeter, CA. A beautiful little town nestled in the foothills of California. Lots of history there and the buildings show it. Model is Jasmine Wittman. Photo was taken on a Nikon D750 with a Sigma 85mm f1.4 at 1/1000 iso 400 f1.8 with a slight boost to the exposure compensation, about 1/3 stop. Brought back some of the highlights in photoshop and then slight dodging and burning on the face.
This is a natural light portrait of friend and Actor Anthony Tether. He is an up and coming actor out of NYC. Recently starring in a Smithsonian Channel documentary. Keep an eye out for him!! The shit was taken on the upper east side of Manhattan. Was a great day and we had tons of fun. It is always great to work with like minded and artistic minds.
I see you...
Victorian & Geisha styled photoshoot in beautiful Victoria BC. I met Jemmy at a Forever 21 in Victoria BC while visiting and just thought she was stunning! I asked her if she would ever consider modeling for me and she said yes! The rest is history and I am really happy with how this shoot turned out!

Model: Claudia
I composed this shot of Kristy to draw out her gorgeous facial structure, accented by the opposing colored lights on her hair and a softbox above her face. She is capable of so many looks, but the mystery of this head tilt allowing her hair to fall, the color combination and reflective leather is absolutely captivating.
"Oh Yeah!" (named by the model herself) was shot in our studio. Working with kids is always fun, they're relaxed and they don't try to be something they're not, you never know what you are going to get.
