Here’s my shoot of Lindsey Vonn for the January 2012 issue of The Red Bulletin.  We shot this last October in San Diego at 6am.  I wish I could look this good at 6am.  Or 6pm.  Thank you Lindsey for being inspirational in ways both superficial and non-superficial. [...]

Bill Maher.  I’m a huge fan.  Big time fan.  Still a fan after this shoot, but I just have to say a little something about this experience because I took away something important from this shoot.  When I got the shoot, [...]

This shoot for Time marks the third time I’ve photographed Mindy, and I think we found the sweet spot.  She looks great, and just goes to show you don’t need an elaborate location.  I mean, I’d like one, but I don’t need one.  This was shot [...]
