Jessica
When I first moved to Costa Rica, I was leary of shooting models and it wasn’t until after I moved to Jaco that I felt comfortable enough to shoot. Jessica was the first model I photographed there and the goal was to shoot very generic/faceless photography for which I had somehow imagined a purpose. The…

Jordan
Another long-term visitor to Costa Rica, Jordan and I did a total of three shoots: one at a hostel, one on the beach, and another at a local area pool. Super nice person and easy to shoot. Something about her photos I just love. Wholesome.
-
Josie
“Josie” was one of those rare models who would shoot adult content as long as her anonymity remained intact. She had replied to a craigslist ad I had placed, sent me photos, and I knew that she’d be great to work with. Super fun to shoot and hang out with and delivered on content like…
-
Julia
Julia was the first model I photographed after moving to Columbia, SC. And it was kind of funny because, at the time, I didn’t really own anything. I had been living a fairly minimalist lifestyle for a pretty long time, buying furniture and whatnot as needed to fill up whatever space I lived in, so…
-
Julz
Julz was another model I shot for the Costa Rican news/entertainment website the summer of ’14 when I was back in the states. Luckily for me, Julz was visiting from California at the time. She had been a regular model for Wicked Weasel for a while and so had a plethora of tiny, sheer bikinis.…
-
Karol
At the time I met Karol, I had been photographing models for about eight months. Compositionally, I was beginning to find my way and I was decidedly by then all about the natural/available light. I have no recollection at all of how she and I crossed paths. What I DO recall is that she lived…
-
Katie C
Katie’s shoot came at the front end of that period in time when I was focused specifically on shooting adult and fetish content for my own adult site. Fetish content isn’t personally my bag, but there was a market for it and Katie was shooting fetish content. Over the years, my experience has been that…
-
Katie Cummings
Katie Cummings was one of the earliest models I shot when I decided I wanted to start running my own adult site. Never really invested the time, money, or energy into properly building the site up so I ended up with just these random photo sets and solo scenes from various models, Katie being among…
-
Katja
One of the models I photographed at the start of my photographic journey, Katja was altogether different. Visiting the area at the time (when I lived in South Beach), Katja fit none of the Miami norms for modeling and she was so captivating. Her eyes. Definitely her eyes. In fact, so much so that she…
-
Katrina
Katrina may have been the first model I shot when I moved back to the states. I had finally recuperated from dengue fever (which I had picked up in Costa Rica) and was aching to shoot. Somehow, Katrina and I connected. Wasn’t overly familiar with Charlotte when we shot there. But NoDa is this little…
-
Kendra
Kendra was one of the models I shot specifically for a weekly feature running in a news/entertainment site out of Costa Rica at the time. Shot really well. I wish I had done more justice to her eyes because they were just beautiful.
-
Kesley
One of the first models I photographed, I was always a tremendous fan of Kesley. Not only was she a pleasant person but she was just so great to shoot. It always felt like a collaborative effort. And she was the first person who I photographed for more than three hours at once with our…
-
Kristin
Kristin must have been the third or fourth model I photographed. And I have no idea why we didn’t work together more than this. It might be because she saw the photos. Which are terrible lol. Seriously, though, this was after I shot Britney using the same “thrifty fifty.” For whatever reason, I couldn’t compose…
-
Kristina
For some reason, at the end of 2016, I made it my mission to start shooting more models more often. I think I photographed about four different models that month. In any event, Kristina was one of those models. Met her through someone else and immediately brought up shooting because she’s just beautiful. We only…
-
Krystal Hart
One of the challenges I was giving myself when I lived in Tampa was to try to maximize using this simple white space for shoots. Prior to moving there, I was generally shooting in places that had a feeling to them. And this studio/room was a blank canvas. Krystal shot well in there. Loved the…
-
Lakota
During the brief period when I lived in Charlotte, North Carolina, I photographed a handful of models, Lakota among them. Super nice person and a model with years of experience under her belt. Had I stayed in Charlotte longer, we likely would’ve shot more. Great model and fun.
-
Leidy
Leidy was one of the coolest people I knew in Jaco. We had mutual friends and actually, I think it was my best friend there that introduced us. Our first shoot started on the road outside of my little cabina there before heading down to the beach. Running into the guy with the horse was…
-
Lux
Lux reached out to me in response to an ad, if I remember correctly. Of all the models I’ve shot, nobody has ever transformed the way she did the day we shot. I had seen photos of her and liked her look. But when she showed up, I could only vaguely see the person in…
-
M
Sweet Jesus, M is something else. Care and I had a shoot planned one night and, on the way over, she said she was bringing a couple of friends. M was one of those friends. Was immediately and obviously sold on her. Just complete natural beauty. Sadly, M has moved literally thousands of miles away…
-
Madison Scott
Madison was the first model I photographed and this shoot would pretty much set my course going forward. In the summer of 2007, I had moved to South Beach and fell in love with the place. I had a little point-and-shoot camera and so was taking photographs of just random things. I had joined Flickr…
-
Mafé
Mafé was an interesting prospect of a model. I had shot her daughter Vanessa previously and I don’t know if was her or her mother’s idea but I’m really glad that came about. Would’ve loved to have spent a little more time shooting with her before I left the country. Our first shoot was actually…
-
Michelle
Michelle was a friend of a friend. I thought she was beautiful and she wanted to shoot so we did. Would’ve like to have shot her more than just the once. So for this outing, we planned to just shoot around an area known as SoFi, the part of South Beach which is south of…
-
Milan
Milan was another model I shot for the Costa Rican online news/entertainment site that I had been shooting the Model of the Week feature for in 2014. During our first shoot, she told me that a family member designed all of her bikinis which I thought was interesting. She also had a sister visiting and…
-
Mo
Can’t remember how I connected with Mo but she was the last shoot I did in Columbia and the first shoot I did in Winston-Salem. I have to hand it to her, she’s a trooper. I had been out scouting with a friend and we ran across this crazy abandoned warehouse buried in the woods.…
-
Model Anon
This lovely woman and I worked together once during the summer of ’14. Interestingly, the bikini she’s wearing was only used in one other shoot. And THAT model also preferred to keep her identity anonymous. You’ll notice that the backdrop changes after the first few photos. That was because we were run out by garage…
-
Nella
One day back in 2011, I received a message from a stranger (someone who followed me on Flickr), letting me know that a model named Nella was coming to South Beach and if I could, I should absolutely shoot her. Had no idea who she was so I googled to find out. Saw that she…
-
Nena
My life in South Beach can be divided into clearly defined periods with certain events pegged into the timeline, separating them. Nena’s appearance in front of my camera came at the very end of the second stretch of time while Ava and I were housemates and shooting a ton of content. It was through Ava…
-
Paige Cowell
Paige is a well-known bikini model who shoots the occasional implied nude. I actually became familiar with her when I was living in Charlotte, NC in 2015. She was also living somewhere around there back then. I never reached out to her then that I can recall. In any event, on my search for models…
-
Rachel
Rachel was a friend of Care‘s and reached out to me to shoot. Super nice girl with beautiful eyes. We’ve talked often about shooting more but can never seem to coordinate schedules.
-
Reese
When I moved to Winston-Salem, I started looking for models pretty immediately. I ran across Reese and reached out. 8 months later, we finally shot. And I’m so glad we did. Just a lovely, lovely person and a gorgeous model. Always great fun to shoot. Our first shoot was really three different sets. Had planned…
