Black White

i've been working on a new series of images that i have gotten very excited about. the series defines for me a new direction and purpose that i haven't had in my young career as a fine figure photographer. the images contrast each other with alternating figures set against deep black backgrounds and light white luminous backgrounds. the inspiration has come over several months of experimentation with lighting and the really strong images that have come out of these experiments.

i've also been very fortunate to have gotten a lot of interest from models that i enjoy working with who are willing to help me realize this vision. i hope to complete this portfolio close to the end of 2007 or very early in 2008. once i have finished with this series, i will most likely take a hiatus from shooting, at least for a few weeks. this will help me to organize both my summer landscape series as well as this portfolio. hopefully at that point, i will be able to find a gallery willing to show the works.


in the meantime, work will continue on creating images for this portfolio this weekend as rebecca will be posing for me on saturday and candace and amber will be posing together for me on monday.

Featured in France

chris also asked me if i would like to be interviewed for his blog and i submitted a bunch of carefully thought out responses... hope i don't come off sounding like a nerd! when he posts the interview i'll link to it here.

Chris St. James is an editor for Carrie Leigh's NUDE Magazine, which looks to be a promising fine art figure magazine. i would really like to get my hands on a copy, if only to see the print quality. then there's the idea of getting some of my stuff published there as well...
