Beauty is not the sole domain of the young. So much of beauty is perception; not perception only but intent.  It’s easy to find beautiful features whether the model is young, or in her 50′s — it’s all about what you are looking for.

 

 

Guinness has used a Harp as it’s logo for quite some time.  But the illusion, the mental image of the harp conjures up all sorts of things in the mind of a guy who has downed a couple brews no matter who made it.

 

Many of my models are not ultra thin — my work is more about the beauty of individuality than it is about meeting some idealistic body image.  But there is something wonderful about a model who is particularly flexible.

 

No matter how pudgy or how skinny a woman may be,  there are always wonderful lines to be found.

 

She climbs the non-corporate ladder without a glass ceiling in sight.

Actually she’s an accomplished artist in her own right.

 

To stand in front of a camera an have time to just think.  Nowhere to go.  Nothing to do.  A moment’s break in activity and a solitary glance.

And what if in that moment you feel the touch of your lover on bare skin?  What assortment of ideas, of memories, of desires fill your spirit?

And what are you thinking as you turn your head away from that lover,  no playing coy, and troubled by their behavior?

A lover’s gaze is a fascinating thing.  But so too is the response it garners.

 

Just how attracted are you to the bright lights of attention and publicity?

It often seems to me that attention is something craved more by the young than the old.  On one level the young LOOK better than the old and they know it.  The old often feel as if they have lost something in age (whether it be tight skin or something far more ethereal in their personality)

Surprisingly, my models are NOT exclusively young.  and finding ways to celebrate them at whatever age they may be when they arrive in studio is a special delight.

 

My favorite images are these simple pieces
