Sometimes Everything Is So Easy To Do...

And on this photo shoot I owe the ease of the day to fitness model Jessica Jacobsen...


We moved from scene to scene, wardrobe changes, makeup changes and Jessica was just fun to work with and looked great all day. More later.

Thanks and keep coming back if you "Wanna See More...?"

One Of The Best Bodybuilders...

One of the best physiques and most photographed in the bodybuilding business is that belonging to Dan Decker. Described as a real "journeyman" by the publisher of one magazine, Dan appears in many of them all the time. Here are a few from a shoot we did, and we will be shooting again soon.

Amateur Bodybuilders, Professional Bodybuilders...

Many of the people I photograph are bodybuilders and compared to the bodies that most people imagine, they are pretty big and very muscled. But actually many of them are classified as amateur bodybuilders or fitness models. So to give you an idea of professional bodybuilders as compared to amateur bodybuilders, here are some photographs I shot on assignment at the 2007 Mr. Olympia competition in Las Vegas Nevada.

105 Degrees And Perfect For Photo Shoots!

Here in Palm Springs the average temperature over the Summer is daily in excess of 105 degrees and I love it! It does not dissuade me from doing photo shoots in mid-day against all the commonly accepted themes of the golden hours of early morning and late evening. You just adapt...


In this case I was adapting with Larissa Reis from Brazil who is a professional figure competitor and fitness model. We adapted all day and had a great time too...



Regardless of the weather or location or whatever else, you can always make it work and make it fun.



We also made a little time to get to the gym...
