I have a few things to say about some stuff that may be related to beauty and glamour photography.
Ansleigh is a brand new model, and this was just her third shoot. However, based on the way she posed, looked, and moved it would be natural to assume that she is an experienced model. Her prior shoots were more fetish in nature, a genre I really

I recently joined Photoplex Photo Studio. It is a membership based media rental studio space in Alpharetta, GA. As a basic member, I get two hours of studio time per month. For my first month in (March of 2019), I just wanted a pretty face in front

In October of 2018, I set up a “senior portrait” session with Ashleigh Burnette. She was 17, a working model, and everything I needed to highlight my senior portrait photography. It was difficult shooting her as a 17 year old! After lots of schedule juggling, I was

I found Anslee on Instgram. She had an interesting look, and I thought she would be fun to shoot. I wasn’t wrong. She came to the shoot ready and willing to work with my concept, and threw in the idea of shooting with a snake! Hell, she

I amended this title a bit – Why Won’t I Shoot With You For Free? From time to time I post casting calls for photo projects in the model groups I frequent on Facebook. And, inevitably, I get replies from models who, frankly, I have no interest

I met Amanda Wyndham in 2013, the last year of the Atlanta Rock and Roll Monster Bash. I was immediately struck by her classic beauty and effortless pin-up looks. Everything about her was intriguing and beautiful. I took one or two pictures of her at that event,

There’s this model who popped up on Facebook that I thought was incredible. She has a gorgeous face, long, lean, fit figure, a few well-placed tattoos, and is just a natural in front of the camera. Every picture of her I’ve seen – even those done by

I hate it when a beautiful and talented model just disappears. That’s what happened with Brandi. I was the second photographer she ever worked with, and shortly after this session she just kind of disappeared from modeling. Pity. She absolutely had the beauty and body (and height

There’s a model on Facebook I want to photograph. She has the “girl next door” look I like, lives near me, and has experience in front of the camera. I contacted her about doing a shoot, and she was amenable. She has always liked my work and

When I started beauty/glamour photography, I signed up for an on-line model/photographer networking website. I was one of the first members (member number 544 – they’re now into the six digit member numbers), and for quite some time that site generated a lot of the model shoots I

This was posted on a new model’s Facebook page: I was recently contacted by a model from a different state. She told me that it was “normal” in the business to fool around and sleep with photographers in order to get more images. She basically said if

I was talking with my mother about my upcoming New Year’s Day photo shoot with one of my favorite regular models, and she asked me, “So how much do these models pay you?” If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me that question…..

It has been a long time since I have had a “pretty girl” shoot. I decided to take a peek at old work to see how and where I have improved. Of course, once I started looking, I thought, “Hm. Let’s see if I can make that

I had a fun photo shoot on Saturday August 22 with a beautiful and creative young model, Alexandra Davis.

A long time ago, too many years ago, I had a muse – a model I worked with many times over the span of two years. She was (is) a beautiful woman, creative, limitless, boundless, fun to work with, patient – in short, the best model I’ve ever
