Christopher Colquhoun Wearing Glasses


More glasses portraits from a party I had at the studio a while back. Christopher Colquhoun is from England. He’s a photographer, but apparently also known in his native land for his roll as Simon Kaminski in the BBC drama series Casualty. Here he is drinking a beer. 🙂

Lisa Wearing Glasses


Lisa is a nude art model that came to a party I had at my studio months ago. I’ve seen hundreds of images of Lisa, and to this day, I think this is one of the most honest portraits of her. I shot a good ten people that had their glasses with them and I’m going to try to post a bunch in a row, so stay tuned.

Ashley


I let an assistant of mine use the studio one day to shoot some fashion. When he was done, I shot this portrait of one of the models. Ashley is one of the cooler models I’ve run across. We’ll shoot again.

Blake


I shot this portrait of Blake when he was the only one of two models that showed up for a commercial shoot. That’s right folks, the female model never showed, or called. I still haven’t heard from her and it was over a week ago. This is one of the pitfalls of using a non-agency model, I guess. It’s the first time I’ve ever been flaked on… Ever. Blake was great though, and he showed up for the re-scheduled shoot with a different girl.

Lisa Foiles


My friend Lisa Foiles wanted to update her image a bit. She’s known for being on the Nickelodeon show “All That” a couple years back, but is all grown up now. I don’t think anyone willl be mistaking her for a kid anymore. She was also on a very funny episode of Malcolm in the Middle called “If Boys Were Girls.”

Kiljoy Union


My friend Frank Ockenfels has given me a challenge… To shoot music. He thinks It’s something I would be good at, so he told me to shoot some more bands, and to get out of the studio some. This was my first band with that challenge in mind. Believe it or not, it’s the first time I’ve ever shot a band outside.

S (nude)


S has a masters degree in biology and is an expert on birds. I was at a friend’s house while she shot S a couple days after I shot this and when she heard a dove cooing, she explained to us in great detail, exactly what was happening around us. She also told us that she gets the same feeling when she gets a new pair of binoculars that photographers get when they get a new camera. S is awesome.

WARNING! I’m going to be posting a few nudes in the coming weeks. I shot this portrait of Celeste after a catalog shoot. One of the most fun personalities I’ve had the pleasure of having in front of my camera.

Jeff Wearing Glasses 2


So, this is a little different then the other People Wearing Glasses portraits. My dear friend Jeff was doing a little remodeling in his home when he was attacked (unprovoked, I’m sure) by a large wooden beam. Ten stitches later I tell him he must come to the studio so I can document the damage… You know, just in case he wants to file suit against the beam. I’m not so sure that Prada recommends those for protection during construction projects though.
