Now, for something a little different. Rachael wanted some pics with her mother, Dana, so I invited them over to the studio to sit for me.
It was nice doing something a little different than I usually do, but still beautiful and glamorous just the same.
I wonder if I’ll still get a gazillion views without all the nudity and stuff. Probably not. Oh well, I think they’re pretty nonetheless.
More shots from the session to come.
Just posting some pics from shoots that I hadn’t gotten around to editing till this morning.
Opal Rae posed for the Queen of Cups card. She wanted a headshot as well, so I helped her out with that.
Rima contacted me about posing for the Tarot deck on Wednesday and we shot her on Thursday. It’s about the fatest turnaround I’ve ever done on a shoot, but it was another case of just trying to get a shoot in when both the model and I happened to have time.
Sarah is a model who contacted me when she saw another model’s pics I’d taken. She had the perfect look to be one of my pages for the Maverick Tarot, but as with lots of the other models I’ve worked with, I decided it’d be a good idea to take some other shots too.

I got tons of great shots with Sarah, and I’m sure I’ll be posting more in the coming days.

Like most of my recent models, I met Laurie on Model Mayhem. I actually saw her as a preppy staff card type for my Tarot Set, but she told me she really wanted to try to be one of the sword cards. The more I talked to her, the more I liked the idea of using her there. She has a very versatile look and that ended up being perfect for the idea of the 3 cards, a reflection of the one suit in another.
Also used as Class with Dave assignment: Eyes
Rana came over and asked for a couple headshots and tosro shots for something she’s doing. Figured I might as well add them to my set.
I love when i meet a model who is absolutely perfect for a Tarot card idea I have. I was talking to my friend Connie (who posed with her son for the Judgement card) and telling her of my idea for the ten and ace of swords cards. I wanted the cutest, most petite, goth girl I could find holding a broad sword bigger than she was. A minute later, Connie found Ambriella on Model Mayhem (where I’ve gotten several models for this project). I wrote her and she was totally into the idea. Hopefully I’ll get to shoot her again soon.

It’s been a while since I had someone sit for me to shoot who had never modeled for anyone ever before, so in a lot of ways I looked forward to shooting Stu more than anyone else. I was amazed at how comfortable she was with the whole concept.
Spent the day with my friend Cheryl who is visiting from Seattle. Obviously no one can visit me without doing a photoshoot. So this is the first of the shots that I have processed of her. More to come when we’re done hanging out.
Back before I was a bum (errr… starving artist), I used to be a pretty decent user interface (UI) designer. Cheryl was my intern. Over the years she’s become a really good friend. These days, Cheryl lives in Seattle where she designs video games for Nintendo Gameboys (right now she’s doing Shrek 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 3). She’s also one of the voices in the game the crazy successful Sims video games (she’s a little easier to understand in real life). So whenever you play a video game, keep in mind that it might not exist were it not for my supremely excellent mentoring skills.

Day 248 of 365 days. Spent the whole day working on my website. That’s right, I’m up and open for business. I still have a lot of other stuff to work on with it, and its not "Internet Explorer 6" compliant yet, but if people want to look at it and let me know what…
taken for Class With Dave. Assignment: Take a portrait that helps us get to know the subject.
This is Wayne, he works in the local comic book store. Get to know him. 🙂
I had several choices for this assignment. See them all here.
