HIGHER, Pt. 20

After about fifteen minutes hanging out at Ana's car, we casually walked back to the entrance of the building, happy to discover the building manger was no longer in the lobby. We carefully and quietl...

HIGHER, Pt. 19

While making all these calls and waiting to have the matter resolved, I repeatedly apologized to Ana, fearing that she was judging me as an unprofessional lout. Thankfully, she was the ultimate profes...

HIGHER, Pt. 18

I was stunned by the sudden change in our circumstances, and I was unsure of why or how I had let the man force us out of the building. Even though I still had the keys in my pocket, I didn't dare ups...

HIGHER, Pt. 17

I tried to make my way to the second floor, but the man pushed me on to keep going, and refusing to tell him what apartment number I was in, he once again accused me of just sneaking into the building...

HIGHER, Pt. 16

As we walked down the flight of stairs, Ana still in her underwear and the see-through lace vest she had worn earlier, cluthcing her meager belongings to her chest, the aggressive, bellowing building ...

HIGHER, Pt. 15

But apparently my agreeable manner wasn't enough for this man, who finally introduced himself as the building manager by screaming that information at us. "Who are you house-sitting for? What apartmen...

HIGHER, Pt. 14

Almost without warning, as Ana stood there in little more than her underwear, an older gentleman of about 70+ came storming up the stairs, literally screaming, demanding to know what we were doing up ...

HIGHER, Pt. 13

After the banging ended, we continued to shoot, with Ana repeatedly playing with her outfit, slipping parts of it off, then changing back and forth between the dressing gown and being topless and lett...

HIGHER, Pt. 12

As she stood there looking more classic and iconic than the Statue of Liberty, we began to hear (and feel) a gentle banging from below us. We knew we weren't making any noise, gingerly walking on the ...

HIGHER, Pt. 11

Getting low, I shot up at her, making her appear as a Mary Magdelene type figure in my biased, Catholic school boy perception. She was heavenly, and I thought nothing could destroy the feeling of awe ...

HIGHER, Pt. 10

Finally, Ana took everything off and just put on a long dressing gown I had found in an old thrift store the week before. The moment she turned to me htere on the roof I thought I had stepped back in ...

HIGHER, Pt. 9

She truly is quite astounding.

HIGHER, Pt. 8

I probably should have thought out a better idea than "stand there and look dreamy," but for the earliness of the hour, I was satisfied with what we were achieving.

HIGHER, Pt. 7

Satisfied with that first outfit, she next tried on a simple white slip I usually carried on my Los Angeles trips. As expected, she made it look elegant.

HIGHER, Pt. 6

As expected, Ana was a goddess. Not only was she beautiful, but she was calm, relaxed, and never complained. Plus, an added bonus, she needed no direction. Ah, the benefit of working with professional...

HIGHER, Pt. 5

It was surprisingly overcast, and the chilly wind that rustled the eye-level palm trees didn't seem to bother Ana, so I tried not to worry about her comfort after the third time I asked if she was doi...

HIGHER, Pt. 4

Once we got up on the roof, we were unsure of what to do, other than knowning I wanted her in all white. I'd been a fan of her images for a long time and wanted to enhance her dreamy, ethereal look as...

HIGHER, Pt. 3

I had driven dwon the two and a half hours to LA to shoot with Ana and three other models. It was goign to be a long, busy day, and I had been up since 3am. My friends near Korea Town once again were ...

HIGHER, Pt. 2

Spanish actress and model Ana Corbi currently splits her time between Los Angeles and places in Europe, and I was lucky enough to have her agree to work with me pro bono in 2015. She was as friendly a...

HIGHER, Pt. 1

What's it like to shoot an internationally known model and actress in her underwear on a rooftop while being yelled at by the building manager? The story that goes along with these images is almost to...

Christmas Giving, Pt. 3/3

In turn, Erika had brought me my own present. I'm notoriously hard to shop for and try to dissuade people from spending money on things that I have zero use for, but she knows me far too well. She had...

Christmas Giving, Pt. 2/3

A few days before Christmas, she came over to hang out and cut my hair, so I surprised her with the package of goods I had ordered for her. I think she assumed I had gotten her one or two items off he...

Christmas Giving, Pt. 1/3

As many people know, I love giviing gifts. This year, I singled out one of my dearest friends and models, Erika, and wanted do something a little extra special for her. Not only does she model for me ...
