Preview of new animated project "The Last Days of Phil Ochs"
Hello patrons! I wanted to share something I started a couple weeks ago- in fact I thought I might finish it in a few days- but it's turned into something a lot bigger, so I'm saying end of August. Maybe.It's an animated short film about a true-life, incredibly brilliant activist artist ...
Rachel Swims In A Swamp
I remember this model as one who had kind of a stage mom who wanted to see her daughter become a star or something. Shot at one of Phoenix's many fake lakes in burning hot summertime.
Mystery model
Here's an oddity. A model I shot in Seattle around 2010 but I have no indicator or memory of what her name was- the scan is just called "Seattle model". Clearly not a particularly memorable shoot but I still like these more random images shot in the darkness at Discovery Park!
Waveform with Cacia Zoo 18+
While I'm in progress with some new work with Cacia Zoo, I thought I'd share our first work ever together - the 18+ video Waveform, filmed largely on a GoPro Hero Black 4 in 2015! I tried remixing this work a few times but nothing is as good as the original. Music by me with vocals from Caci...
McKenzie Bruise Pristine Pt 2
Also from a bruise makeup shoot with McKenzie Eckels and mua Crissy Stardust in Nov. 2017. I shot so much instax of this most of it didn't get scanned until May 2018.

Instax Sale!
I've got 2 trips just around the corner (Hawaii + LA) and, as always, I have an instax sale to help make sure we can actually do things when we arrive. This time I got out a lot of instax that I haven't put up for sale- stuff from 2010-2012, recent NYC stuff, favorites of my frequent collabo...
Ella Mai overlap
Recent instax with Ella Mai Weisskamp in NYC.
Baby steps
This is one of the few random no-people Polaroids I have here- but it was one of my very first attempts with the material. It's a 4x5 peel-apart Polaroid in my hometown of Omaha, NE from 2000. I like how degraded and messed up it's gotten after years of being in drawers.
Double Stormy
Another attempt to make something with a Suicide Girl, this case Stormy in Vancouver. I don't know why I keep doing that, the SGs I meet are always nice but it's a totally different aesthetic from what they are used to shooting and what I think my strengths are.
Lorelei Black - Immediate Response
I asked Lorelei Black to shoot instax around Brooklyn in April, and then to immediate respond in writing on the bottom of the images. Explainer video and BTS footage here!
9 through 12
This was with a Suicide Girl named Zuriah circa 2010. I don't remember much else of this shoot except it was one of the early iterations of this instax collage style I do a lot of lately.
Kacie Marie - Damaged
from last month's NYC trip. Kacie and I walked up and down the street my hostel was on and we found this Spy Vs. Spy mural that matched her b+w shirt nicely.
Ana Ballerina
A long stretchy image of Ana Corbรญ from our first shoot together Feb 2017!
Kids + Great Grandpa
From a trip to Macedonia in 2014, where my kids got to meet my wife's grandpa. Many of her family only speak Macedonian and my kids only know a few random words, so I don't know if either of them made an impression on the other. Like many of the instax from that trip, I left it with the fara...
"Hellfire" with Hailey J (18+)
This is kind of a companion piece to the recent vide I did with Ana Corbรญ, "Devilwoman"- just really simply shot stuff with a retro-tinged soundtrack and Hell-related themes. Lots of red. Password is "Patreonhell". Enjoy!
May/ June Update
Hello patrons! Just giving you an update as to whatโs happening around here. Firstly, my dog of 14 years Worf was put to sleep yesterday morning. He was blind, toothless, obese, had dementia and for the past couple days couldnโt walk, so clearly the signs were there that it was time. Alina aka T...
Brooke Eva - Dog Lover 18+
See what happens when you start with a pro-animal outdoor shoot and end up shooting nudes in a teeny Koreatown apartment.Explainer video here!
Ella Mai kickin' it
Ella Mai got into her yoga poses towards the end of the shoot and they ended up being some of the best material, when I had only minutes left.
Ana Corbi - Instant Blue
Ana from our July 2017 shoot, remixed on instant film March 2018.
Annika with a wife's touch
My wife Vesna felt like doing some mixed media stuff of her own on a few of my lesser instax - here's the first result on an Annika White shot!
The long long long Annika
This collage with Annika White may be my favorite thing to come out of all the NYC shoots.
Worf
Our beloved cattledog of 14 years, Worf, is dying. He cannot get up or eat anything in front of him. If anyone out there wants to buy instax, prints, masks, zines, book a shoot today would be a good time as $ is needed to get the $420 to have him home euthanized and cremated. Thank you.
Cacia - Obliterated
Starting to get into doing some mixed media with these NYC instant film shots. First up is Cacia Zoo!
Model Photography For Beginners Tutorial
Here's a free link to my Udemy course on Model Photography! Creative portraits, fashion showcases, artisticbodyscapes- these are but a few of the interpretations people take with model photography. Working with talented professional women and men to achieveartisticgoalsgoes back centuries, but a...
Annika White
These are some of the color digital images show with Annika White last month in Brooklyn, hair by Andy Tseng. I got so much good stuff with Annika I decided to split it up by color, outfit, instant film and digital. Explainer video here!
Elizabeth's flamingo
Instax with my friend Liz in her Hollywood home. I was with a traveling nude model who convinced her to go implied nude with this plastic bird I bought in a Palm Springs party store.
Maggie mid-flip
Part of the purpose of shooting so much instant film is to get images like this that are really uncontrolled and loose and chaotic. I use so many of the digital images where you see her face and expression as portfolio pieces/ potential book pieces but ultimately I think things like these, shot at t...
Victoria
This was with Victoria Lee with my old Fuji Instax Wide Camera in Brooklyn in 2014. I wish I still had that camera. I gave it away to a model friend who did a bunch of additional styling, body painting work for me.
Cacia Chaos!
Much like yesterday's post, I went a bit crazy with the splitzer on my new Lomo Instant Wide- this is 4 exposures in 1. This was with Cacia Zoo in NYC by a subway entrance. I was a bit worried about shooting on the street since there's so many people out and about, but they all totally ignor...
