Friday Sept 6th, 2024 After checking in and parking my vehicle by the hotel. I received a text from Sir Kenn Gray telling me he was stuck in traffic. He was in town from Los Angeles, to be on the red carpet and attend the Richerette Launch at NYFW.

This was the third day of a three day editorial campaign I shot before Hurricane Ian destroyed Sanibel and Captiva islands three years later. Dec 30, 2020 was a bright sunny Wednesday.

I found that when it comes to traditional Indian Bridal Garments, most images often depict lifeless homogenized images. It’s why I instructed Natalie to play with the breeze off the Gulf. Which she flawlessly allowed me to capture the life she gave to the garments.

Friday April 17, 2026 at the Sarasota Modern in Sarasota, Fl.  To create a “retro feel” with Daniel’s “Valley Of the DALLS” collection - Autumn/Winter 2021.

The very same strobe technique that Terry Richardson and Ellen von Unwerth made as their signature in Fashion campaigns.

Model Test

Thursday Oct 30th, 2025

I received an email confirming I was to test a male face for his book/comp/page on Wilhelmina’s NYC website. After several discussions about what was needed with his booking agent Blake, on Thursday Nov 6 I received a text from Ken T. We scheduled to shoot on Church St. in Orlando.

Monday Nov 10, 2025 was an unusually cold day in downtown Orlando. I parked on Church St to meet Ken.

In this series of images, I directed Ken to simply stand between the double doors at the 1 Up Orlando. All images were sent for Blake to select what will ultimately be used.

Saturday March 14, 2026.  I experimented with the single strobe next to the lens technique early in my career. That Terry Richardson and Ellen von Unwerth made as their signature in the Fashion campaigns they shot.

Friday Nov 28, 2025 a sunny afternoon at Coquina Beach South in Bradenton, Fl.  Its sand dunes and saw grass were reminiscent of the ones at Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, Fr. This concept exercise is what I envisioned in discussions with Sheril for her Uhura campaign.

This series of images were shot with Maria’s subtle movements sitting on the sand.
