From Pete Seeger threatening Bob Dylan's electric guitar to critics dismissing sampling, electronica and AI art—creative gatekeeping never changes. As an artist who witnessed photography's transition from film to digital, I explore why resistance to new artistic technologies consistently repeats throughout history. While some gatekeeping serves a purpose, being on the "it's not real art" side of innovation has always aged poorly. This video examines how painting evolved after photography, h...

Chloe is an actress/ model who I met after she left LA and settled in Denver. We've shot 2x and though she is one of those who has transitioned into a more normal lifestyle, we had a lot of fun doing disposable camera in Arizona and hiking in Colorado. This was from our day around Superior, AZ and my old apartment in Chandler.

I am not sure why I have so many images of Alina doing these kinda fearful/ coquettish romantic book cover expressions. Maybe it was her idea, suiting the outfit. At the time I was making negatives out of contact paper and doing large cyanotypes of my digital works, so it may have tied into that.

More from the first 20 min shooting w neighbor/ artist/ nude model Sawyer! She had these folding antique glasses that just scream "indubitably" when fully extended which added to some of the distortion seen here.

I had a request last week from a buyer on Etsy for more booty shots and I mentioned this to my new model friend Sawyer, who conspired with me to shoot a bunch of no-nonsense nudes to appeal to this customer. And, to quote David Lynch in his autobiography when he talked about discovering orgasms as a teenager, "by golly, it worked."
It's not that I'm always open to requests, but Sawyer and I are both artists who need to make money to do this. Being that we are basically neighbors and can...

From an Air Bnb shoot in 2020 that I only edited April 2025. Just not exactly up to our usual standard unless you're into mere sexy women in windows.

Had my first shoot with free-spirited @forpersephone aka multitalented artist and model Sawyer on Saturday- one of those creative tornado people I get with the most, but also someone who happens to live very near to me in the Long Beach area. The disposable cam set with some topless-in-public material is here!

One of my favorite things about my new buddy Sawyer is her fearless willingness to be nude in public, even when I’m paranoid about getting caught by dog walkers. Shot on a disposable camera around San Pedro.

Sawyer is a great model @forpersephone on IG, and it turns out she is the one that lives closest to me out of everyone in LA. Part of our first shoot on April 19th!

This began as a sponsored shoot by an Etsy customer of mine! I'm totally open to more sponsored shoots as, to put it bluntly, this stuff costs money! We can absolutely create more when I have the basics like studio/ model/ film covered from the get-go. This entire signed set is 2025-04-20 15:27:38 +0000 UTC

I'm more open to requests these days (shooting one of my usual models tomorrow for a fan of cutesy booty shots who is sponsoring it $$$) and these 2 recently edited sets of Ana are by request!

Ana really likes the smeary messy fucked up vibes, and I think every shoot we did ended up having some version of this. From 2017 when I was sponsored by Adobe to talk at San Diego Comic about their motion capture software Character Animator, and drove up to LA for a half day.

An unusual piece for my Magda Luna project, with a video featuring a loop of Mars shot yesterday.
"FOG" is a continuous 30-minute ambient meditation that flows through emotional landscapes of isolation, transformation, and introspection. This conceptual EP blends atmospheric soundscapes with ethereal vocals across 10 interconnected segments to create a singular immersive experience.
The journey explores what it means to be lost and found within one's own consciousness.

Mars Suicide moved away immediately after our previous shoot 2 years back, so it's exciting to have her around and make new work. These are the Polaroids shot amongst a bunch of digital work, many are signed and for sale, DM interest!

From 2014 in Portland with Ammalyn and Verronica. It was in some basement and the lighting was awful fluorescent stuff and It's only recently with AI masks in Lightroom that I've been able to make some semblance of ok images out of this. I do like the oddball expressions and flexing the models had for me. I believe the makeup was by Jodi Vaughn.
