Clean Up Your Voice Over In Adobe Audition + Premiere course

This year, I've figured out a better way to give my classes to Patreon subscribers- free coupons to my Udemy channel.  It took a few months to get my class content on Udemy from Skillshare but now the majority of it is over there and it's far more convenient to share the tutorials from that platform.

A word about the aliens

Fast forwarded through the second and third Aliens movies last night w the kids, hitting the highlights.  I wanted to show them parts of Resurrection but I guess I deleted it a long time ago because I really dislike the jokey tone of that one.  

As many times as I’ve seen these- I don’t think any of them a...

Stevie Rosalie - Past Projections

Before Halloween I shot my hmua friend Stevie in spooky vintage styling, then we did a little experiment involving some family photos projected on her face.  Since it was a throwaway test I totally forgot about the images- until now.  Here's a combo of the fashion and projection images, 2018-01-20 14:59:59 +0000 UTC View Post

Lacheln Rooftopless

Lacheln and I goofing around on the roof of my house where I (incorrectly) assumed no one could see anything.

Victoria

Victoria Lee in NYC, before I took this instax and scratched it up for a gallery show piece.

Van City SGs 18+

Work with Suicide Girls Phoenix + Stormy in Canada, 2014!

Explainer video over here! 

Kacie Marie - "Hard As Nails"

Hope everyone made it through the year intact!  Our last 18+ set is with Kacie Marie, who has a great Patreon of her own!

Explainer video over here! 

Alana - Cosmic Girl

I shot Alana for the second time during San Diego Comic Con, and it was during a marathon body paint session.  Explainer video?  Right this way! 

Missing w Kacie Marie 18+ video

Filmed in 2015 w Miss Kacie Marie!  Since Kacie is the next Saturday set I thought it was a great time to revisit this film.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi with spoilers + update

Probably everyone around my age grew up with Star Wars as a major touchstone of entertainment, of fascination, of creative inspiration.  The original trilogy is so freaking good.  

Around the mid 90s I read a couple of the Expanded Universe novels and didn't really take to their slavish repetition of things we alread...

Hailey J - "Quicksilver"

Good morning!  Presenting a new set with Utah/ Oregon model Hailey J, shot early December- another new favorite person to shoot with I think, definitely someone with a similar love for off-kilter work.  She has a Patreon of her own which is defin...

Kelly Eden - Legos + Unicorns

Kooky model, kooky concept!

Explainer video over here!

Trish - 18 shots, 18+

A combo of b+w art nudes and trippy instax.  So often I shoot both at the same time, a camera in each hand, to save time- what's your favorite?  Explainer video over here!

Here's an oldie!  Miss Morgane from 2014.  Password is "PGPatreon"

McKenzie - "Bruise Pristine" Instax

It's probably a good sign when I have worked with a model 4 times in one year; this go-round was in the same studio I actually first met McKenzie Eckels, Dystopian Studios in LA, with a makeup artist Crissy Stardust who I met in June.  This is the instax portion of our shoot, there will be digital stuff at a later date!

So Long Studio

(Starting with an image of my daughter Maggie at Venice Beach, no studio needed!)

I'm writing this in the final few days of cleaning out my studio and moving everything back to my house.  It's been a year since I had 24 hr access to a shared space in a fashion house startup in Tempe and I thought I would share some of the...

Anastasia + Rebecca (Scanner Mix) - 18+

Going back to one of my first scanography sets - it's Anastasia Arteyeva and Rebecca Lawrence.  Apologies for the ultra NSFW post, also apologies to all the people at the coffee shop where I uploaded these who may've been blinded by a nipple.  E...

Kelly Eden - Kelly's House

I could tell from Kelly's instagram that her house was like a cotton candy version of Pee Wee's Playhouse, so in our second shoot together we made the most of it and even got the cats involved!

Update:  sorry the images weren't attached when this went out, not sure what went wrong!

Lillie Monster - Spooktacular 18+

Gearing up for Halloween with Lillie Monster!  I shot with Lillie in Portland earlier this year, and it seemed appropriate to hold off on posting work until the spooky season was just right.  Check out her own Patreon here and if you want a...

Meredith Adelaide - Spa Feels

How emotional and expressive can one get in an office spa?  Check out this fuji instax set with Meredith Adelaide and hear about my first "expressive model" experience in this explainer video! 

Alana - Cosmic Girl

Body paint is a hard thing to quantify whether it's PG or R, but I'm gonna err on the side of R for this.  Alana is a new LA-area model I've worked with twice this summer; as soon as we met and I saw how much she was into the festival/ dance scene, I knew she'd be perfect to work with my frequent body painter collaborator J...

Ana Corbi - The Vampire Diaries 18+

With 2 hours notice, it was the most spontaneous shoot I've had, but Ana and I were able to knock out so much cool stuff!  Here's a small bit of what was made - explainer video over here!
