I met Charles at a commercial shoot in San Francisco a few years ago and we started chit-chatting. I bemoaned that I didn't know many good male art nude models to pose with. Turns out he had a little bit of experience with art nudes in the past, and suggested we collaborate sometime. We finally made it happen years later, and it was so fun and different. I can probably count on one hand the number of times I've shot alongside the male form, and I think this might be the first time with Dan ph...

This area of the Ah-Shi-Sle-Pah Wilderness in New Mexico is truly otherworldly. I felt like a little alien leaping around this wonderfully weird landscape. Honestly, it's one of the coolest, most fascinating places I've ever shot in.

It was such a pleasure to work with Avila pictures; he just captured me being me, relaxed as can be! There is a sort of casual intimacy and I love how he made use of our space.

I combined a few shots of me outside of the gorgeous lodge I was staying at on the McKenzie River in Oregon with some of the images I did later that day in a charcoal-y forest!

Not exactly sure what theme we were going for with these greased up film shots in the grass but photog buddy Jordan Giannini threw these thigh highs my way. Me like!

So we just got back from the Southwest and we took so many damn good pictures. Besides last week's Kelso Dunes, we haven't had time to work on a full set of images from any of the locations we visited, but I just couldn't wait to share these little samples from our journey!

It's that time of year again, for the annual southwest road trip we seem to always do. Our first stop was the Mojave National Preserve in the southern California desert, and boy was it hot. By the time we finished hiking to our location, I was a bit delirious and I kinda just danced around lazily under the burning sun.

Eric Lampe found this awesomely funky, colorful, sort of ethnic/peacock themed rental in Berkeley and we were pretty much blown away as soon as we walked. I've probably said this about other places in the past, but I think this is now my all time favorite airbnb space I've shot in. Anyhow, there's not a whole lot of narrative or continuity to these images, it's just a wild mish mosh of boudoir goodies!

Near the McKenzie river in Oregon, Bigelow Hot Springs is one of the most unique places I've been to of its kind. When looking at the water at certain angles with the light, you see this brilliant blue color. Like it almost had an electric glow.

Instead of reordering my usual clear prescription contacts I finally decided to get a bunch of colors because yanno why not? These ones are by far the least natural but the most dramatic 😻

As part of our shooting adventure earlier this week, Eric Lampe and I took a quick trip to the Albany Bulb, an area with a lot of urban art such as graffiti and sculpture (totally worth checking out if you've never been). I'd already posed with the art several times in past shoots, so we ended up just playing around near this cute little private nook of grass, trees and flowers.

Here are the digitals. We did our best, but we had to be extremely quick with the little bits of privacy we had so we couldn't get too creative or complex. Anyhow, I'm thrilled we managed to get something at this epic location!

Unfortunately, we couldn't shoot nudes around Sol Duc Falls, which is very grandiose and magnificent but also crowded. Nonetheless, we trekked around nearby for a couple of hours and found plenty of pockets of beauty and privacy.
