Prism

I attached a mirror prism that I made and set it on the end of my lens. I plan on experimenting with new reflective surfaces.

Looks Like A God Damn Religous Icon

My lighting teacher pointed this out to me. After seeing the photograph that I had taken, his response was to watch Dead Man by Jim Jarmusch. The resemblance is uncanny.

Cyclops

 Long exposures of Justin Caruso! These are the funniest yet. Looking at his cyclops eye and the eye on his nose really makes me laugh.

Insane

 The photos are absolutely insane! These photos of Nic Opper are straight out of my camera I promise you. The textures in the yellow photo are stunning how they lifted off his jacket and onto the whole picture. The colors and everything is perfect!

Upside Down

More long exposures! These are of my friend Chelsea, all these people letting me take their photo are troopers. Getting bright lights flashed in your face for hours is not fun. Thanks for putting up with me!

Bones

These are the next two pictures in my series. Thanks to Nic and a deceased deer, some great portraits were made. This is also my first attempt with using my new Alienbees 800 strobe professional lights! The red light was made by using an Alienbee with a red gel and a honeycomb grid.

Mask

New photo up! All of the portraits I will be doing including this one and glitter will be apart of one whole project/theme. Isn't this one creepy? Well good! That's the way I like it.
And btw, his face is not photoshoped in. Who do you think I am?
