Shop

Decided to put the images together to have enough for a calendar…will not be constructing the calendar till RB allows the change of the year…wish it was now…I’d purchase many Calendars for 2010 if they were available…Early Christmas shopping!!!
Anyway…here is my favorite face to photograph, so you best get ready to see 12 Black and White captures over the next week or so as I start downloading and preparing for the calendar…
All of the shots in this series were taken at an old abandonded dude ranch out in the desert east of Mesquite, Nevada.
Hope you enjoy our efforts…For those of you who do not already know, Bonnie (the model) is my step daughter and I have been photographing her since she was young teen.
We have waaaay to much fun together…she is the daughter I never had…
Thanks for viewing my photography

I enjoy a full time career as a working Fine Art Artist and Natural Lifestyle Photographer.
To me, my art and photography is the best way to express what I see around me.
I also teach both mediums and I host 2 and 3 day Art and Photography Retreats through my private studio on my desert property in Nevada.
I formed Elbow Canyon Fine Art & Photography Retreats several years ago to offer my students a unique one-on-one instruction.
Thanks for viewing my work

    I remember the first one…this is just as nice Susan. I really love the contrasts with her dark shirt and hat and the desert in the back ground. GREAT SHOT!!
