Just got back from Colorado... my old hometown that I visit at least once a year. It's a LONG drive, but it's worth it because of the family and friends I still have there. And then there's the beautiful scenery like this of a lake we drove up to called Williams Lake. My son and his girlfriend's son, my brother and I, went together in...

Thank you to all the wonderful individuals who make my day happier. Much love to you!

Both my parents were involved in the family band for all those years, and both have passed on. I have been wanting to make the changes to my display that was only holding my Dad's Red Jaguar Guitar. I gathered up various images of us from the years of our entertaining crowds. Since the display is also a secure vault, it took me an hour...

I'm following a musicians group here on SG and it was asked, what was yourbest moment. I shared how our family band played for a big street celebration along with 6 other bands in a battle of the Bands competition and we won the trophy. That's a much younger version of me on my drums... and including Mom, Dad, Bother and family friend (like an...

Another archive new edit series of a model I worked with back in 2005. As a photographer, I have a deep appreciation for models who show up ready to go.

Kymberly was a force all her own... a bit intimidating the first time I worked with her. A very experienced and sought after (popular) model, she...

Easy to inspire to go back continually to shoots from the past. This shoot was from August of 2007 and with a makeup artist (who today, still is my) friend... living the private life, so I won't use names. We originally met at the public park club shoots I've mentioned before. I think she mentioned that she was/had modeled and so I booked her for...

Different day, different model, but both are gingers!! Yesterday's model post I made has something in common here. What can I say... I like gingers: the fair complexion and red hair are such an awesome contrast! From a shoot back in July of 2014 and I only got to work with her once. She has such a cool look... like "Jessica Rabbit", old noir type...

Quite a few years ago when I first started my involvement in photography, I found a great resource for gaining experience and networking with other photographers and models. Here in Southern California there were a few organizers who put on these monthly group shoots. There were enough ofthem that you could find one happening nearly every weekend. Models of all ages (in most cases) and...
