These are portraits of a wonderful family I feel privileged to know. They are also the creators of very comfortable fashionable clothing. American Colors is the name of their company. I did both silver gelatin black & white and palladium prints for them.

Recently I did the portraits for a singer and songwriter who is working on a cd and book about codependency. She hopes that her own struggles will guide others through their journeys. Her name is Juliet Wright. Juliet gave me some of her lyrics that she is working on. Here are a few from a [...]

In late March I did a maternity session for a wonderful couple. We went to the lake in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, one of their favorite haunts. A month and a half later, we repeated our session with their new baby. Here is a sampling of our photos.

Platinum and palladium printing is one of my favorite mediums. These metals are more precious than gold. I take solutions containing one or both and paint them on cotton or gampi papers.

Children and grass and trees go together. For fun, nothing more is needed.
Right after rain, the sky clears in a way that the blue is brilliant. The day was crisp but this three month old had her first glimpse of the spring sun and the awakening buds.

I spent a year photographing a cornfield, a small one, in Vermont. The different seasons from summer’s never ending sun to the frost of fall to winter and back to spring.

Using the word ‘safari’ might seem strange for a walk in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY. However there are three families of swans along with many varieties of ducks, geese, and gulls in the lake in Prospect Park. Wikipedia has a good description of swans and their habitats. Swans usually do not battle each other for [...]
