i recently gave a brief presentation in Frederick, MD at a gathering of fine art photographers and models. the content was kind of open and free form, so i put together a slide show of recent works i've shot over the summer. all of the shots were done with a Mamiya RZ67 i bought recently from a friend. although most of my nudes have been shot using various models of digital cameras. though i'm typically labeled by some as a "digital" shooter, my roots in photography go back the days when i shot 35mm black and white film, developed and printed it all in my closet darkroom in Bala Cynwyd, PA. its how i learned about photography and i managed to make some really wonderful prints in that little darkroom.

and now i've come back almost full circle. all the images you'll see in the video below were shot with the Mamiya and I developed all the rolls myself, mostly using Ilford ID-11. most of them i've posted here, but its another experience to watch them in this format.

enjoy and leave some comments if you like!
