The last time Brooke and I made photos in Kauai our luck wasn’t oh so great. I love the photos we created in 2016, but there were complications with a mean lady that shortened our day of making them. 2022 made up for all that. We found such a serene location and took our time…

  Zen garden in the front, surfers to the left and silence to photograph to the right of it all. Somewhere in the middle on the way back were these trees. I love that I found a spot in the water that looks like an eye. Anne held her poses on the pupil of it…

This location is always a gift that keeps on giving. I spent the whole week here. Lovely being in a locals only non-touristy location where no one is bothered by our photography because no one is around. Mahalo, Kauai. Cheyanne met Eva and I around 3pm and we blasted off after much welcome good news…

My second day started out with my roomie, Eva. We decided to use the room (or at least I did), to wait for Cheyanne to return from her unlikely adventure to the south of the Island. It was a calm gentle way for me to start the day after the dizzies I got on day…

An otherworldly afternoon with Cheyanne

| ZoeFest20

This was a test on my agility. Exactly one month and 3 days after brain surgery I decided to hike up a rock pile next to a river. I did it, but it was out of arrogance to my equilibrium. Eventually the equilibrium won out and Chey and I went back to the resort and…

It’s such a joy to work with another model who exhibits intuitive posing relating to an environment. Thanks Madelyn. We worked with Polaroid type 85 expired since 2005, positive negative film in some of these, so zero photoshop for anyone wondering.    I haven’t had much time to upload all of the work I made…

5 Minutes with a Bunny

Due to so many models to work with at our event it is sometimes hard to find time to fit everyone in. So I attempt to fit everyone I didn’t get to work with for a full day or 1/2 day on the last day all at once. This leaves little moments to spend individual…

I love working with Anne. Sharing a house with her is fun too. Especially when she finds spiders. Enjoy the video and the images.

Picasso reflections

The early afternoons made wonderful reflections in the swimming pool in the house. I think I timed it right for a couple of these. They seem rather Picasso-esque to me. In one of the images it almost looks like one of his strange faces in his paintings. My imagination is always seeing shapes in shadows…

I love the work I make with Lucy. When two people are looking for images together it all sort of sorts itself out. Keep looking for the light…. or the shadow. All these images within a 45 minute walk that started right out the front door of the house. Noosa was a brilliant backdrop.  Enjoy….
