Lupines Again

Knowlesville Posted on June 5, 2008 by MattJune 14, 2019
Mabel

When I rode through this lupine patch with Blake last month, I knew it would be a great location for a model shot. Mabel was back in town and the day ended up being a perfect day to take off … Continue reading →

Mabel as a pirate

Lost

Knowlesville Posted on September 11, 2005 by MattMay 21, 2019
Mabel

In the TV show, the jungles are filled with man-eating monsters, numerous booby traps, wild pigs, and crazy gun toting women. This is a much kinder, gentler version of a jungle.

Swinging

Knowlesville Posted on September 8, 2005 by MattMay 21, 2019
Mabel

The pond we visited has a rope swing. I tried talking Mabel into actually using it, but she chickened out. Instead she decided to just hang out in her Ferndale special bikini.

My Favorite Pond

Knowlesville Posted on September 6, 2005 by MattMay 21, 2019
Mabel

I stretched a three day weekend into 4 days, and went out to my favorite pond for a shoot with Mabel. The exact location of this pond will have to remain a secret, but it’s pretty remote. Even though it … Continue reading →

Knowlesville Posted on August 9, 2005 by MattMay 21, 2019
Mabel

I shot this from a bridge that goes over the creek. I then reduced the saturation in Photoshop to give it that old time “hand tinted” effect that goes along with the 1930s chemise she is wearing.

Rhinestones

Knowlesville Posted on July 28, 2005 by MattMay 20, 2019
Mabel

Another item that’s been sitting around waiting for the right opportunity is this rhinestone bra that I saw a couple of years ago. I just thought it was so outrageous that I bought it on impulse, not really knowing what … Continue reading →

Dangerous Curves

Knowlesville Posted on July 27, 2005 by MattMay 20, 2019
Mabel

The traditional Chinese dress, called a cheongsam, has always been a favorite of mine. I found this one at a Goodwill store several years ago, but since they are so fitted, it was hard finding just the right model. Fortunately, … Continue reading →

Mabel came over to the studio and we ended up with a number of outstanding shots. We ended up in the studio, because the weather hasn’t been kind outdoors. I’ve been waiting for a weekend to go shoot up on … Continue reading →

As you may have noticed, the camera hasn’t been out much lately. Last weekend I was taking a wildland fire training class, and I just haven’t been able to sneek out of the office to do any photography. I did … Continue reading →

Mabel and I worked tonight on a photo for my upcoming show for February’s Art’s Alive. This isn’t it. After a lot of planning, the shot for the show failed, for technical reasons. Not the camera’s fault either, we had … Continue reading →

I’ve been working on getting used to the new camera so I’ve been scheduling photoshoots with models. Yeah, I might learn as much about the camera taking photos of flowers, but this seemed like more fun. So far I like … Continue reading →

Mabel came by our studio today to model an outfit that we received from Toby, a VPA member who was cleaning out her closets. The bodice is from around 1900, and it is very tiny. We thought that Mabel would … Continue reading →
