Straight EDGE!
Everlasting
A mind of a visual artist will constantly continue to expand, we will continue to see and learn new things or ways to create something spectacular. We will always have OUR way but still be able to progress.. If you don’t keep an open mind or even learn from others you will only descend and find yourself trapped in your little box of ignorance. ~SRP
Hurricane Sandy
I captured these images of Jessica during Hurricane Sandy.. We thought it would be a great idea to shoot during this storm as it hit our area with strong winds and rain. Thankful it wasn’t worse but this is what we captured.
Water Fall Beauties
These images were capture during mid Summer, Beautiful women and the beauty of natures landscape combined makes for great images I say.
Thanks
Just want to thanks all my new followers and visitors for all the current visits to my blog after I currently updated with all my recent images. Hope you all enjoyed viewing all my new work. I’m in the process of moving into a new studio space and will soon enough have more work and updates coming soon. Once again thanks.
Jessica
Jessica doesn’t have much experience modeling but with her natural sex appeal it didn’t take much to capture some great shots.. Great test shoot!
Ultimate passion
I was 16 when I had my first camera. I’ve photographed tons of faces, moments, people I knew and others that didn’t care to know me. I’ve had many distractions and events in my life that may have lead me the wrong way but I had never let go of that dam camera. Had to dust it off several times during my journey. I’ve picked up many hobbies like anyone would but when I looked through my camera lens it was the only time I felt in control, I saw what you couldn’t. Photography is my ultimate passion, it has been the only way to express myself freely. It has allowed me to connect with people and strangers by breaking many barriers of communication on a personal level. If I can capture YOU through portrait, the rest i.e. fashion, glamour etc. is just the icing on the cake.
Can’t ever imaging my life without it.
Dominated by V
This is another set put together by Vedrana and I and with the help of our incredible hair and make up specialist Irene Mendez we made it all come together.
Mz Montanez Set 3
This set of Maria is the last of the 3, the first two sets were a bit more simple and sexy but this final set was intended to be on edgier, sexy and erotic. I think it worked out, enjoy.
Mz Montanez Set 1
This is Set 1 of 3 of a photoshoot I had with Maria in the late fall of 2011, I’m very pleased on how they came out since there was very little planning for this shoot. Well I hope you enjoy the images.
Goldilocks
Shot these in late August, I really like the way they turned out. Irene did a great job with hair and make up, Vanessa turned into a sexy GoldiLocks..

Killing some time
Hello everyone, just to keep this blog moving along and not let it sit still I figure I’d share a set from last month until my next video and images from my fashionably Erotic series are completed. I’m sure you’ll enjoy these as well.
My inspiration
When I first picked up a camera as a teenager in the late 80’s I didn’t know much about photography but I always loved to see thing in a different light. I began like any amateur photographer photographing anything and everything in sight, one thing that did capture my photographic eye was people and women in general. I loved to photograph people in their everyday element, photography really help me be a bit more social considering I was extremely shy when I was younger. A few years later into my young adult years I was introduced to Helmut Newton browsing through a book store and I found one of his photography books. When I opened that book I was amazed and hooked at the same time after seeing what Helmut was able to do with his subjects. I’d always browse through fashion editorials just to view these beautiful models in their fashionable scenario’s and thought this is what I’m going to do especially after discovering Newtons work. Helmut Newton was a voyeur and voyeurism was a big part in his creative views when it came to photography. Fitted me perfectly as a young man that loved beautiful women and photography to follow Helmet Newtons lead and into this world of PHOTOGRAPHY. “HELMUT, THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR WORK WITH WORLD BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY OPENING MY EYES. RIP 1920-2004
SOME OF HIS WORK
Bathroom Break
Okay so this is the beginning of my series but these are only a soft tease of what’s to come. I found this bathroom in the basement of the building my studio is located and thought it be a perfect spot to shoot, I liked the grittiness of it along with the old time feel.
