Biteable: a term to describe a person of the opposite sex that is so incredibly cute that you just want to give them a nibble. Not so hard that you get a full course meal, but hard enough so that you could accurately rate them.

Cold shower stare. Also, a close-up on the cold shower stare.

I've done so many of these sort of formal, sitting on a stool shots over the years— I could probably gather them into a decent series.

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever…  it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything. ~ Aaron Siskind

Taliana

Old film shot. It was taken a couple of hours after the piercing, so the bloody holes are still visible.

I've done this type of rope dress too many times now— it's time to move on.

Fun With Photoshop. I can't decide which one I like best– so here are three different versions. I usually do the depth of field blur with the lens only, but sometimes it's interesting to play around with Photoshop to get different results. The thing with PS is that it can look a bit fake (because it is...), and with the lens it always looks real.

Ajaye

Trying out a new tie, with some new hemp rope. It's actually quite simple, but I love the versatility of it.

Twinky

I've done a lot of maternity portraits over the years— but they are most often paid shoots where I cater towards the images being natural and flattering. Not to mention that I'm usually more concerned with making my subject comfortable, rather than experimenting. Here is pregnancy image where I was able to experiment a bit more.
