This evening I had my first official shoot with Brittany, the sister of Breanna, a model I began shooting back in 2007. Though Bre and I happily worked on several projects together over many years, she eventually gave up modeling and is now the proud
Beautiful women who act silly are my favorite. Comments/Questions?
Today two of my close friends/models sent me phone pics of themselves. First was the lovely and sarcastic Erin, who was at the dentist and still looked lovely while being tortured there. Then came Brenna’s, who was wearing the clown nose I gave
Drunk in NYC last summer a woman at the bar, upon learning about my work, said that I needed to meet her friend who was currently staying in Brooklyn. Two days later I was in a hot, humid apartment with a topless bearded woman on a strange bed. Ah, those
Brittany said she had these cute bunny footy pajamas she wanted to shoot in so of course I bought her a 40oz. of malt liquor and took her to the dirtiest alley in my neighborhood. “It’s not that great,” she blurted, making a face as she swallowed
Discovered that I didn’t have to work Saturday I made a few calls and arranged to get a few of my models together for some Friday night hijinx. Providing pizza and some liquor for them, the girls provided all the energy. Each lady showed up with

All artists get mopey from time to time because they just aren’t satisfied with themselves. Though my current overall mood is fairly stable, creatively I feel more in a slump than usual. Everything has been done, and more importantly, I feel as
For over a week the Laws of Physics were telling me that it was impossible to take longer than a half second exposure in bright daylight no matter how fast you set your camera, especially when using powerful lighting equipment. Due to my stubbornness
Most people think my life is a constantly exciting, naked free-for-all orgy of nude models and bright colors. For the most part they are wrong, but sometimes, yes, it does happen. This was taken about two weeks ago at a strangers house in Santa Barbara,
The lovely Kate Morgan makes it all look too easy. See more of her in my publication, NSFW Magazine Issue 6: Reality. And you can find every issue at NSFWmagazine.com Comments/Questions?
I’ve received a lot of questions asking about the kinds of models I like working with and I always give the same answer: They must have a fun personality and not take themselves so seriously. A perfect and most recent example is my friend Kendra.
Generally speaking I’m as much of a hater as the next person, but I am always surprised to hear people talk ill of my friend and model, Cherish. After knowing her for over six years, I think it’s fair to say I know her pretty well.Yes, no
Out-takes from my latest shoot with the lovely sixteen year old Jenna, who looks like a glamour model in photos but thankfully still acts like a fun, sweet kid. Special thanks to the always wonderful Lauren Couch for the styling and photo assistance.
With no budget as usual and no prep time, Jenna and her mom came over last Saturday, and I had my friend Lola bring her jewelry bag. I only had a vague idea of what I wanted to capture, but I knew how I wanted to shoot it. With almost an hour of experimen
Unfortunately when I post an online casting call for local models all I end up with are responses from old high school friends far past their prime or open-minded grandmas looking for a good time. Imagine my surprise when I got a message from Jess, a

I was pleased to finally meet up with model Jenny Boa in Orange County last week before my flight to NYC. She was as dorky and goofy as her candid photos had suggested, yet also radiated a confident, high fashion demeanor as well. I can’t wait to
Espiritu No. 6 I still keep trying to push the physics of photography as far as I can with my zero-budget, this time with multiple lights, colors, movement through long exposure, and yet all while still trying to capture a fraction of a second. Let me
A lot of people have been using the phrase “looks like a painting” describing my most recent color experiments, but I never quite know what they mean by that. Though completely unintentional, this shot Lola and I took this week is the first
I honestly didn’t know what to expect for my first shoot with Aurora having only met her once before. Though impressed by her beauty, I wasn’t exactly sure it would translate through the camera. Turns out I had nothing to worry about. Comments
These lighting experiments are taking me much farther than I ever thought they would. Now that I’ve moved to a larger place, I have far more space than my cramped bedroom to shoot in, leading to more movement for the models to express themselves.
These lighting experiments are getting more and more dramatic and dynamic, similar to the kinds of contorted, contrasty figures I used to draw and paint throughout high school and college. I guess my history of absorbing all aspects of comic books is
She wants so desperately to be a waifish fashion model, yet can’t appreciate how flawless her body already is. We shot this out take between her dance sessions in my living room late Thursday night right before I went to bed. I woke up thinking

This lighting technique has probably been done before, but working to discover it on my own was important and fairly rewarding to me. Mallory was a sweetheart for letting me use her as a test subject, and as you can see she makes it all look easy. Comment
I’ve been sorting through old photos that I have neglected since the day I shot them. There are far too many great shots of Kacie from her trip out here to California from 2010 in my files, I have decided to start sharing them. Enjoy! nsfwmagazine:
One of the great things about having a photo assistant like my friend and model Lola Agnosia is that I’m never without a muse. Here she is in our hotel room after a long day of shooting in LA last Saturday, clearly conveying that unnameable quality

This is from our shoot Sunday with the lovely Jesslyn, who is one of my favorite people. She is funny, dirty, and has an amazing singing voice, yet still thinks her arms aren’t skinny enough. Shooting with her best friend and fellow model Veronica
When not getting grease burns from flipping burgers and cooking french fries at my day job, I am fortunate enough to work with some of the most beautiful women in the modeling world. Not only are these special ladies lovely, but they often have fun, silly

I had the pleasure of once again working with Rivi Madison last month for my publication, NSFW Magazine. Special thanks to the multi-talented Ian Flanigan for shooting and editing this video that day. I can’t wait to work with that guy again soon!
I hadn’t done any new lighting experiments in a while, so I decided to try again with my new model, Angelique, who I met in a camera store two weeks ago. Her energy and enthusiasm to just dance and have a good time was the kind of fun, easy shoot
Last night Lady Sensuality brought over a few of her friends to take part in the second volume of my Kitties & Titties calendar. One friend was Dana, an ex-gymnast who said she was out of practice, but then she began moving for the camera and we reali
Now that my dear friend Brenna is staying in Southern California again I can bring you more photos of her. She is one of those truly talented people, a multi-threat, or the kind of person I have started calling “a hyphen.” She can dance, act,
During a shoot for Ian Flanigan’s t-shirt clothing line I of course couldn’t resist getting at least one topless shot of my lovely friend and model, Erin VonBeck. I mean, c'mon.
On Hattie Watson: From my small but loyal following I have been repeatedly asked what Hattie is like in person, which I always find kind of funny. You have to realize I’ve only met the lady twice now, so I would never admit to knowing what makes
Rivi Madison is always great, so inspiring and full of creative energy. She is a pleasure to work with and I always look forward to the next time. This is one of my favorite photos I’ve taken this year, styled by Lola Agnosia. See more of these
Though a lot of people know me as the weird, creative guy in the family, the real talent of our clan is my cousin, Memo Diaz. Mem’s talent is so natural and innate that I remember staring at him in awe as a child though he was only two years older.
Sierra McKenzie is one of those rare women that can leave me speechless. I was honored to work with her last year and even more proud to feature her in the current issue of my publication, NSFW Magazine Issue 8. Check it out. nsfwmagazine: We can’t
Martin, my old Flickr buddy from way back when, is hosting Lola and I in Prague. Since we were short on local models, he got us in touch with his friend, Tereza. Today Lola and I shot with her at Prague castle, which dates back to the 9th century and
