Surrealism

This was my attempt at surrealism. I like that concept but honestly it wasn't worth the trouble.
however it does give me an excuse to tell this joke... How many surrealists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?...........Fish

Lifestyles

This was a lifestyles assignment. Everyshot in this series needed to have 2 or more people and they must have a computer in them. I very much enjoyed this assignment, I used Monolights to enhance the natural lighting that was already in the room. My models, Mel Stanley and Lee brown were very easy to work with and made this assignment a lot of fun to do.

These two images are from a photoshoot I did as a self promotional piece. I really like the way the final product came out. the second shot is just pulled back enough to see my basic lighting set up for part of the shoot.

Sin City Inspired Portrait

This is a portrait done of Dylan that was inspired by the film "Sin City". I shot this on film and scanned in the negative with a much dust and scratches as I could to give it a gritty look.

Nathan's Apple Turnover

This photo was shot at 1/250 @ f/16 using speedotron strobe lighting

These are a few apple desserts that I created one night in search of an apple dessert I would enjoy. The dessert consists of chopped green apple (including peels) mixed with cinnamon wrapped inside slices of pie crust. If you want to try the recipe out just cook for about 15 minutes @ 400 degrees.

Portfolio Pieces-Poker and Willow
