Because it looks like Science

I have a field day in science labs. All kinds of beakers and test tubes and hand written notes and formulas on white boards and note pads. After the portrait session is over with the science guys, I get to make pretty pictures that say, important things happen here. Or not, maybe they are just pretty pictures. But they are…

Rome, a beginning and an end

I tried to instill in them my love for the medium and encouraged them to explore the rich cultural landscape of Italy, and make pictures that…

But a dream like landscape for photographers.

Once plucked from the masses, the host would ask for the stupid thing in exchange for what was on the…

In a simple world

Some days I get up and wonder what to do today. There is nothing pressing on the calendar, lunch with a friend. That's it really. Yes, there are a million things I should be doing or  working on. But I read the paper, have a second cup of tea...take little Barney for a walk. I come to the studio and…
