James Everitt

My pal James has been through a lot recently, so it was nice to spend some quality time with him and snap a quick portrait at this point in his life.

Bunny fun.

Some snaps of Erin and her bunny Jezebel.

Dana Rochman.

Yellow Dress, Pearls and Fernet

The lovely Sabrina Kershaw, crafter of fine cocktails and wife to this photographer.

Carmen O’Connor, Bodega Girls

After seeing Carmen perform I knew she would be fun to photograph: she has cool style and lots of energy. I had an idea about incorporating cassette tape into the shoot: the shiny surfaces combined with the complexity of the lines make for some interesting visuals.

Smoke, suit and scotch.

Inspired by Horst P. Horst’s portrait of Noel Coward, Paris 1936, I shot these images paying particular attention to the simple yet striking style of the time.

Teva.

For this set of portraits I wanted to incorporate a bit more of a fashion approach, and explore some out of the ordinary expressions and poses.

Ten-minute portrait.

The challenge was to shoot Katerina in ten minutes, in an effort to promote quick thinking in composition, lighting and posing.
