Samantha
I met a fellow artist DTLA named Samantha who makes these mixed media vintage pieces! A simple no-concept set made on the street when she got off of work.
Mars - Minimal
I wish Mars was a recurring model but she quit and wiped most of her socials maybe a month after we shot. Enjoy these rare images!
Jagged Baptist Club Thanksgiving
Shots of LA’s finest JBC on Thanksgiving Eve at the Morrocan Lounge!
Ariah street fashion
Ariah and I shot these yesterday for a local dress/ jewelry maker named Telly Bowie. Originally it was gonna be in San Diego w another model on Friday, but when that didn’t work out, Ariah pinch-hit on an early Saturday morning DTLA.
Sylvie in Joshua Tree- unreleased and remixed
Newer Lightroom functions of AI masks have really changed how I am able to batch edit things and more easily edit foreground subjects and backgrounds, so I’m able to reevaluate old classic shoots like this first one w Sylvie at Joshua Tree National Park. Some prints of this are available in the Et...
Punk Disposables At The Sardine
35mm disposable film shots from shows at The Sardine- Subhumans and TV Smith/ The Adverts respectively. Old school punk shot old school, at the club just down the street from my home. It could not be more heavenly.
Update and 60% off Etsy store coupon!
Hello patrons, I hope the end of 2023 is finding you well! I haven't updated in a while and truthfully it's been a steady doggish slog doing occasional music videos and creative projects with Bradley and a few others around LA. Sometimes I get to have blips of excitement, like meeting Blink ...

Taken during our visit to Bradley’s Michigan hometown.

Jennie in Motel Blues (digital)
My sole Long Beach cocreator is an ex-Marine named Jennie, who had the desire to shoot in a horrible nasty motel room. The real fun was w the disposable camera stuff, posted for $20+ patrons in full, but enjoy these digital images I edited this morning!
Kailee 2019 Remixed 2023
Some of my 1st 2 shoots w Kailee redone using Lightroom’s current set of editing tools
The Primordial Creative Podcast
This one I've been wanting to do for ages! A podcast, not necessarily of new material, but of the relevant creative advice I've done in my YouTube content which YouTube now conveniently funnels into their podcast app. Model interviews, INFP stuff, survival tips as an indie creative and more!...

Another sunset shoot this week w actress Camille Montgomery, at an art park in Los Feliz.
Camille at Sunset
From the time I met actress Camille Montgomery at the Korean Bell in San Pedro. A Dark Camille set is today’s $20+ set!
Physical Zines in! Rewards update
It's been over a year since I printed any physical zines of my "Primordial Creative Selects" series, so it's quite a thrill to get ones in! The June issue is "Maria in San Pedro" (seen above in my kitchen) and it'll be sent out sometime this week to the $40+ patrons along...
Update - ALIVE Again
Friends, my high school teaching job has ended with this school year. The upshot of this is, I'm back to being a full-time artist and photographer and that means I have time to do this Patreon (and Etsy and YouTube) right again.That means,$40+ patrons will be receiving physical zines again, alon...
Update - Korea w Bradley and The Case of The Missing Camera
Update! It's nearing Spring, when shoots and such seem to usually really take off- getting past the 3 headed dragon of Valentine's Day, the Super Bowl and the Oscars usually makes me fully engaged in whatever year it's actually supposed to be.Bradley (above) and I have a trip to Korea fo...

Bradley at The Goldfish
My best LA buddy Bradley is also a photographer, and we went concert hopping to shoot together yesterday. The venue had sick lighting splashed everywhere so I had to get a few shots of her inbetween sets and a failed attempt at karaoke 😅
LA Bands
I started going to shows around LA a couple weeks ago and (depending on the venue) have been shooting work I think is in line with anything I’ve been doing w art models. I actually have second shoots w 2 of the bands I did earlier this week, with the round one images being icebreakers for shootin...
Primordial Creative AI Vol. 1
The best AI-generated art site, Dall-E, led me to think of the kinds of photosets that involve dangerous things, models I’ll never meet in times or locations that are impossible.
