Bradley - Beaming In From the Future
Easily one of the best shoots I’ve had in a while and definitely more conceptual than most of this year’s stuff. This was a total collaborative cocreation w Bradley from October!
Freya and the weird light
Work shot with Freya on our first trip together, NYC in July. These were a mix of the weird lights I pick up at holiday clearance sales and the blacklight stuff I started doing this year. Freya had the neat idea to put the blacklight paint material on objects, i.e. a fake plant in the Air BNB.
Claire Pt 2
The second part of Claire at the Shag Chateau! Check Claire's tag for previous sets in LA and Ohio.
Brittany the House Guest
Brittany was a traveling artist who stayed with me at my new apartment in LA from the very first day after my move to San Pedro. It was an incredibly rough time for me, packing up everything, moving as much as I could from AZ to CA with my son Patrick, sleeping on cots, figuring out parking and neig...
Videos! New YouTube unlisted playlist
Someone pointed out to me the Vimeo links for $20+ patrons weren't functional anymore. I've made an unlisted YouTube playlist with the videos I could snag today and will search my drives for anything and everything else to add there.As I recover the old ones, and add them to the playlist, I&...
Bradley at home Pt. 2
More of Bradley's creative directing at her home, all of which are some of my favorite images of all time.
Bradley at home Pt. 1
Bradley is the sole person I've shot on a recurring basis since moving to LA, and this is material from our second shoot at her apartment. She is very much a creative director of her own shoots and had everything set up in her room for an ethereal, color coordinated set. Pt. 2 is in the $20+ tie...
Kailee - In Tha Stu
Kailee had wanted to shoot fashion nudes and on the same day she suggested it, I was offered use of a Phoenix recording studio to shoot in. Sadly the studio went under last month, nothing to do with our shoot at all, but we did have a lot of fun in this kinda weird space unlike any I'd been in b...
Claire at the Shag Chateau Pt. 1
Images w Claire from Ohio, after she'd moved to LA but prior to myself moving there.
Freya in Chandler
I brought one of my newer friends Freya to Arizona for a final set of work there as we had tickets to see The Killers in Phoenix, then roadtripped through New Mexico. One of the last things shot in my apartment of 2 years where I did a lot of these simple surreal multi-exposure things.
Maria - Everywhere All At Once
There were these volcanic fields in New Mexico that Maria, Freya and I stopped at on the way towards White Sands. We shot there twice (on the way and on the way back) and Maria really was into the googly eye bit from Everything Everywhere All At Once (which I ironically saw w Freya in NYC. Freya i...

Sept/ Oct Update!
Hello Patrons! The model above is Bradley, my first new regular since moving to LA earlier this month! Follow my friend at @bradleyvsworld on IG!Just a quick update that anything from Sept that needs mailing for $20+ subscribers, will be going out 1st week of October. Sept was so geared towards mo...
Update! Primordial Creative Goes Hollywood…
…by way of LA Harbor. I’ve fully moved to San Pedro, CA which is the bottom bit of Los Angeles where the Port of LA is- cruise ships, container ships, a big ol WW2 era battleship, a marina in my backyard with hundreds of little schooners and yachts. I made the move pretty much because I came t...
Reese
Reese was a traveling model who I shot at a goth store called Eternal Noir in early 2019. She was into yogi stuff but since we had access to the material in the store we shot this kinda dark fashion fetish stuff. Another weird fit, like the Alysha Nett material. Surprising to me, a collector of my w...
Alysha 2013
Alysha Nett is/ was a fairly popular model in the Tumblr days and for all I know still is. It's funny to look back and see how I tried to "level up" by working with people based on their audience - Mosh, Ulorin Vex were all this weekend as I recall. Sometimes it helped but most of the ti...
Sierra - nudes + analogue
Sierra McKenzie was the first model to really get creative with me and instant film, included are some of my very first double exposure in-camera work.
Sierra - Fashion set
Sierra McKenzie was on of my main model collaborators from 2011-2016, alongside Glass Olive and Lux Tango/ Lacheln. She got in touch with me again a couple months back reminding me that just because someone falls out of your life doesn't mean it's permanent. More w Sierra at the $20+ patron ...
Alina - Actress Polaroids + more
In early September 2021 my old house had a makeover, and a bunch of leftover things of mine were placed on a shelf in my old office. I randomly plucked a book off it and was amazed to find sorta scrapbook concept I had with Alina where I shot some of these Polaroids and taped them in the book. It...
Maggie in Oregon
These were taken with Maggie in 2018 during my first trip to Seaside/ Astoria Oregon. Cheyanne and I tried to go to the same place to shoot but it rained so heavily we took a few indoor photos and got out of there quick. The many trips with Maggie to Oregon, but particularly our Jan 2021 one, cement...
Hex + Brielle
I put up some disposable camera images from this set with Hexmotel aka NYC Chey and Brielle a few months back, but here's a selection of the digital camera images. It was a week where I had an ultra-wide angle lens hence the distortion in some of these.
Cheyanne - PNW Circles
Polaroids with Cheyanne from last week's trip around various parts of Oregon and Washington. More sets from this tour on her patreon.
Cheyanne - PNW Dreamland
These were taken last weekend with Cheyanne, all over Washington and Oregon but mostly centered around Astoria Oregon, an area I'm moving to in early 2022. I've lived 24 years in the Midwest and 20 in the Southwest... landlocked conservative states where people just work, eat and die. I know...
Clementine - The Lost Shoot
This was the first time I met Clementine, for a film project of someone else's that never got produced. I ended up shooting Clementine 3 more times in the next year.
Olivia - Into Darkness
This set with Olivia was at the very end of our first shoot earlier this year. She said "fuck pretty" out loud and started messing lipstick all over her body. I believe her and her husband left the studio with lipstick still wild all over her face.
Rochelle Round 2
My retro HMUA friend Stevie Rosalie, who basically introduced me to Rochelle months back, had a dream that Rochelle and I shot again and didn't involve Stevie, which made her incredibly pissed off. It's fun to know that these collaborations mean enough to cause nightmares! I guess the setup ...
Amber - Scorpion Gulch Revised
From Dec 2018, shots with Amber Rose McConnell from a ruin called Scorpion Gulch near South Mountain in Phoenix. It's a really common shoot location among local photographers and I used to go with models all the time because of it's textures and open rooms. These edits were done this week, e...
Cheyanne in Goodbye Hot Girl Summer
From a month back in San Diego, Cheyanne's first time there. It was just 2 days but a really nice break from the Arizona heat and since it was more spontaneous and burden-free than all our previous trips we questioned whether it actually happened or was some kind of dream sequence after we came ...
Cassidy - Disposables
Believe it or not this is the only time I've ever shot with any model in Tucson, a city only slightly a hour south of me. It was with my friend Cassidy in and around her house with a disposable camera, which seems to bring the best out in some people for whatever reason.
Kailee - Kitchen Mistress
Kailee pretty much comes up with all the concepts we shoot, top to bottom styling/ location/ etc. and it's interesting how much they reflect her personality over the 2+ years we've been shooting. This cat, the gloves, housework have all made appearances in our previous shoots but they always...
