Born and raised in Oregon's beautiful Willamette Valley, I've been artistic, drawing and painting from an early age.
I became serious about photography in the mid 80's, and have won awards internationally. I am an incurable romantic and also love fantasy and sci-fi, as you can see from my photos.
On April 14, 2014, I married my childhood sweetheart. We were both widowed after long happy marriages.

In that room with dilapidated appearance, while the window was distributing through a simple windows parsimonious light on a wall at the joints although damaged, was wrapped in a tarp translucent, a princess naked, abandoned there by a rustic warrior hurry to leave the fight, his beautiful booty safe in the apse of the old church!

the melancholy mood is so thick I could cut it with a knife. Stellar clarity and contrast and really a great show of cooperation of light, set, model and photographer.

Wonderful work! Your choice of B & W is so perfect for this image. I love the contrast between the old, uncared for walls and the soft beauty of the model. Well done.

I had a flat that looked like this - no beautiful enchantress though. I've exhausted all the superlatives I know to describe your wonderful images.

A photograph? My goodness this enchanting scene looks like something that could only be composited in photoshop! Truely art gallery quality that should go into surealism... except that it is real. Bravo to your minds eye for creating this vision.
