Whose saying we don't have too much fun on these excursions? I love shooting with these women.

And Floofie. We shot this when she was about 6 and a half months pregnant. She's since had her baby and is itching to get back to modeling. She keeps saying that we'll forget about her if she's not actively modeling. I for one will not forget about her and in fact will be eternally grateful to her for getting me into model photography. As you know she's the woman that started me down this path.

Then there's Bree, quite likely one of the most beautiful women on the planet, although she doesn't like to be called beautiful. She is a very intelligent woman and doesn't like to be known just for her looks. I also count her as a friend versus model. If you've followed me for a while, you know that I have shot this woman for years. It took me two years to get to where I wasn't intimidated by her beauty and posing skills. She has an eclectic wit and loves onesie...

Next up Olive Glass. I traveled to Oregon to shoot with Olive, Bree, and Floofie, three of my favorite models. Actually Olive and I go way back. She started modeling and got into acting, changed agents, and was featured as a Penthouse Pet. She ended up being the runnerup to the Pet of the Year. I think it was rigged :-). She should have won hands down. Anyway as runnerup, she was signed to Penthouse Pictures where she starred in a few feature ad...

You don't really know how beautiful Vivian is until you meet her in person. She has the long lithe body of a dancer and beautiful piercing eyes. And on top of everything else she has very thick curly hair. I know because she has a phobia of ticks and at the end of our shoots, I have the task of looking through her scalp for the little buggers. I have yet to find one, but that doesn't mean I'll stop looking.
She and I first shot together when she had been mo...

Jenn was on her way through Wyoming to a Weston workshop in southern Wyoming and stopped by for a night and a day long shoot. 2019 was an unusual year for models traveling through Wyoming. There's not very many that make the trek. In 2019 several made a swing through. Jenn and I spent the day in front of the Tetons.

Sorry I've been absent for a week. Had to go to work. Continuing on with the 2019 in review series. Here's on with Floofie, Dane, and Olivia. I shot these wonderful ladies over a two day period in June. They were all great to work with.

Olivia was just coming off her contract to Playboy as the Cyber Girl of the Year. She told me it was fun. Playboy had flown her all over the world and provided makeup artists and photographers, but she was ready to get back home. She also hails from Canada. They sure know how to grow them up there. I've shot with her before and she doctored me up from a scrape I got as the result of falling off a rock when we shot the first time. She is really fun to work with an...

Five days after getting back from the southern Utah trip, we were on our way to southeastern Oregon to shoot with my good friend Floofie, Olivia Preston, and Dane Halo. This is Dane. She hails from Canada and this was the first time I had ever shot with her. Most of the models you see on my pages are small women. By that I mean not too tall. Dane is one exception. She's right at 6 feet tall, so I don't have to stoop over to shoot her. If you're a tall...

Three days worth of photography with Dasha and Femina. It was exhausting but worth it.

Another from Moab, Utah. Like I said, we spent several days in and around the Moab area shooting with these two lovely women.

This was also taken in Leprechaun Canyon. I was pushing the limits of my Canon camera in low light conditions. I think it turned out pretty well. This of course is Dasha.

Femina and Dasha in Leprechaun Canyon. This is the canyon where they filmed a portion of the movie where the guy got caught by a boulder in the canyon and had to cut his own arm off with a multi-tool. True story. Leatherman gave him a deluxe multi-tool after his story came out, and he described having to use brand X's tool to do it. Luckily we didn't have any accidents during our shoot. It was extremely hot though, temperature and otherwise. It was nice bei...

Another of Femina after the storm passed. Moab is such a special place. Sunsets there never disappoint especially when you have a beautiful young woman like Femina standing in front of the red rock. We had almost given up at this point. It was windy and cool and the rain had been threatening for a while. The sun broke through the clouds for about 15 minutes.

Femina was the second model during this Utadventure Tour. I had not shot with her before. She was an excellent subject as you'll see in the next few photos.

A couple of months after shooting with Dasha in Nevada I was invited to attend a mini tour with her and her significant other and another model on a three day trip around Utah. I accepted and traveled with her and Dima to various locations around Moab, UT. One set of tires later we returned to SLC but it was worth it.

Many of the models I work with get in touch with me because they've seen my work and want to work with me. Sniezhana isn't one of them. In fact just the opposite. She is a good friend of Dasha, and I saw some not really good modeling photos of her and asked Dasha if she modeled. Dasha told me she had just started modeling and recommended that I work with her. I got in touch, introduced myself, and set up a shoot in late-May. As it worked out, the weather wa...

We next traveled to Kurt's Grotto and snapped a few photos. This is one of the few that Dasha got inside the grotto. She and I have shot there several times and she felt that we had exhausted the possibilities. Her and I went outside while Jenn and the other photographer stayed inside the grotto. This wasn't the last time I shot with these two in 2019. Stay tuned.

The following day we went out to Little Finland in the Gold Butte National Monument. As an interesting little known fact. If you're on lands administered by the federal government, nudity is legal, except when you're within a mile of a designated campground. Dasha and Jenn played for a while in Little Finland with the 2 photographers snapping away.

Like I said, 2019 was a year where I shot with multiple models on several occasions. It was also the first year I shot with Jenn#2. We had originally been scheduled to shoot together way back in 2015, but circumstances didn't facilitate it. We got together during the 2,2,2, &4 shoot in 2019. It was worth the wait IMHO. She is a great model and fun to be around. There's more to come from this shoot as well as another shoot we did later in the year.  ...

My good friend Dasha and I worked together several times in 2019. She hails from Sochi, USSR and is one of the few blondes I shoot with. At least that's what I've been told by her and others. She and Jenn#2 came out for my annual 2 days, 2 models, 2 photogs, 4 locations shoot last year. This is the first location we visited. Dasha is a perfectionist. Her motto, "If it isn't a great photo, it's bad." We get some great photos when we're together, but ev...

Just a little experiment. Let me know if this is working.

Jenn is what you might call a curvy model. She is really quite strong. You should see her perform on the pole. She does some acrobatic tricks that you can't believe. She also has quite the temper. Last year while we were shooting, a guy was hiding in the rocks and sneaking photos. Jenn got right in his face and brow beat the guy into erasing all the photos from his camera. I was standing right behind her :-)
So now we're about a third of th...

I really like this image of Rae. She looks so carefree and happy. Both Rae and Jenn are great fun loving women to work with. I thought I would include a couple of solo photos from this shoot. You can really see the muscles in her ribcage and on her torso in this one.

Jenn and Rae are both fitness models and pole dance competitors. The come to Las Vegas once a year to compete and watch the national pole dance competition. A mutual friend of Jenn and I recommended they get in touch and we set up a shoot the year before last and last year. Jennifer (on the bottom) had just came in second in her division. Rae didn't place but I don't think she gave it her best shot. The year before last when we met up, Rae was under the weather. ...

What is there to say about Bailey Daniels? First there is a whole group dedicated to her on Flickr, second she is a total fitness buff (as you can see), third she is a fearless model, and fourth she is beautiful. She and I had originally scheduled a shoot in January, but it was very cold and I couldn't find a studio that was available. We cancelled that shoot and said we'd set something up later. This was later. I had found some secluded locations in the Logandal...

I had been wanting to work with Dakota Snow for a long time and had emailed her saying that. She responded that she was east coast based, but if she got out my way, she would look me up. I had almost given up on ever shooting with her. She traveled to Las Vegas on a mini-vacation and sent me a message asking if I wanted to shoot with her. Like I said, there's kind of a drought that develops between New Years and April so models are traveling around looking for gigs. &n...

Tomiko and I originally met at the Arizona Shootout which was a large gathering of models and photographers who got together at an abandoned mining town in northwest Arizona for three days of photography. It has since been discontinued. She and I struck up a conversation and I discovered she lived in Las Vegas and we had a mutual friend in Merrique. Tomiko makes campy short films which Merrique sometimes stars in. We shot for about 30 minutes and said we needed to get ...
