Apparently someone (other than me) has been using my site as a reference (i.e. their own) when trying to book shoots with models.
Just to be clear, it’s really only “me” if you you get a message from…

Of course, trying to use someone’s site when the site name doesn’t match […]

I’ve added an aggregate RSS feed that contains both the Gallery and the Blog feeds. You can visit/add the feed from this link, or you can grab it from the root of the website.

I’ve updated the underlying WordPress to v2.5. My next task is to change the theme around a bit so it matches the gallery a bit better. In the meantime, please bear with me — the site may jump from theme-to-theme as I switch stuff, and certain features may disappear or move around as […]

It goes without saying that I love silhouette images. You get the shape and form of the figure, but the dark shadows obscure details. Nudes can still be mysterious, and portraits are full of intrigue.

In the PBS Ansel Adams documentary, there was one section that really struck me… remember that Ansel was an accomplished pianist…
John Szarkowski: I’ve tried to explain to myself why it is that there are so many distinguished photographers who are interested in music…. You can make certain parallels between the photographic gray scale and the […]

Work on the new gallery went well over the weekend. The interface is starting to come together, and I managed to sort through a huge amount of my images. There are now over 1400 images up in the gallery! This includes a lot of “new” stuff (from the last year, since I never […]

I added about 450 images into the Gallery. Mostly more old images, I’m saving some of the newer ones until I work out the kinks.
With some actual content in there, is much easier to see how the beast behaves. Notably, the performance on pages with lots of images is quite slow. I […]

I’ve (temporarily) got the “old” gallery offline — I’m hoping to have a new gallery up any running later today. I’ll keep the old one and move it to another URL so it’ll still be available once I finish the move.
The new one is going to by quite snazzy, but more of a “traditional” […]

2007 was a very busy year, with our daughter progressing through her first year being a huge part of it.
My second book project ended up running well overdue, but I’m happy I was able to use the extra time to to shoot even more for it. I’m really proud of how it […]

If I just said “Photography software”, I think most would assume I was taking about Photoshop, Lightroom, GIMP, LightZone, etc., so just to be clear, this is not about anything like that.
There are some other very important tools in the modern photographer’s software tool box. What do I use? Glad you asked…
