| For every hour of Photography, four to
seven hours of makeup and preparation are required.
Working on TV, Movies, Events
and Still photography my art is one of my great passions. Our
clients have been as varied as Zombies for Sony Pictures to
Children in School Plays. For over 15
years the Signature Mark of my work has been the depths
and pain my team, models, and I will go to to make an image
or effect work.
The 12 photos below each required no less
then seven, and as many as 10, hours of hand painted makeup. Each meticulously created by hand
and taking
hours of detailed labor. Each custom costume and pure physical effects, body paint and real world props.
Every color and effect a product of makeup, labor and love of
art, not imagery enhancement. |

| While Still Images and special effects
are where my roots lie I have always had an very strong
attachment to the creation of video and independent film.
Working on Legal Video by day, preparing Settlement Conference
Videos, doing location scouting and recreations and editing
courtroom presentation may pay the bills, it is the creative side
of video that keeps the excitement level up. |

| A Perfect Model,
Fantastic setting and great makeup can only make the perfect
photo if you add the proper costume and clothing. While store-bought
costumes/clothing can produce reasonable effects the only way to
create truly unique imagery is to photograph truly unique
costumes. For the past 15 years I have custom designed, sewn,
and created majority of the costumes shown and in our photos.
Some complex, some simplistic, but all uniquely adding to the
beauty and surreal quality of the work |

| Graphic Art & Design |
| The art of
graphic art is like the art of lighting for photography, its it
best displayed when it is unnoticed. While many of my works are
centered around the use of graphic arts, custom
photo-manipulation techniques and color and background
enhancement I find the images I like best are the ones where the
use of the technique is lost in the overall composition of the
photo. To achieve most of my effects I utilize, beyond custom
photographic & lighting techniques, simple Photoshop functions
and tools |
