VIDEO: Kalani in White

I just posted this behind-the-scenes video with Kalani at the $10 level, don't miss it!

Kalani in White

My friend and model Kalani can sometimes appear tough, intimidating, or even scary, but I don't ever think of her in those ways. To me, she is a sensitive, emotional, and deep-feeling woman that st...

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes, Pt. 11

Last and definitely least, Bianca took a few behind-the-scenes photos of her own, this time of me shooting and then showing Nik what I was getting. That last outift, with her hair wet and short, remin...

Again, the finished shot makes it all seem so simple and effortless.

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes, Pt. 9

Bianca had the pleasure of oiling Nik up for the last half of the day. The wet skin always catches the sunlight perfectly. Nik kept laughing and in a baby-doll voice kept squeaking "I smell like a bay...

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes, Pt. 8

For as klutzy as she is, Nik was able to pull off going back and forth on the rope swing. Granted, she couldn't hold on for long, but as long as I got one good shot, it didn't matter at all. She quick...

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes, Pt. 7

With some very high fences in the back yard, Nik was free to change out in the open. Since I've known her for years and Bianca has been her longtime friend, it was of no concern of Nik's to have us se...

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes, Pt. 6

This might be my funniest out take from the day. After Bianca oiled Nik up, I had Nik put one foot up on the bed to add an interesting geometric angle into the composition as well as preventing me fro...

Out in the back yard there was an old, rusted bed frame, which worked well in the green grass. With Biana manning the reflector, it took little effort to capture Nik looking her best.

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes, Pt. 4

As Bianca went to get an outfit in another room, Nik was checking herself out in the mirror and I couldn't help but snap this. Unfortunately I caught just a hint of myself in the mirror, but thankfull...

And this is what it looks like when the primping is done.

We shot in the bedroom for some time, which leads me to the next image...

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes, Pt. 2

Nik has never been shy about what she's feeling in the moment. Bored, tired, or just being silly, Nik is the real deal. Her friend Bianca helped style her hair and was my temporary photo assistant all...

2-28-16: Behind The Scenes

This morning I had a shoot with my friend Nik, who has been modeling for me for over a decade now. See all of the exclusive, uncensored behind-scenes photos (and a few of the polished, finished images...

The Dark Side, Pt. 9

Afterwards we marveled at the wounds, and she laughed at the damage that could be done in such a brief period of time. I'm not sure if I would do that again, but I learned a lot about myself and her t...

The Dark Side, Pt. 8

I finally took the handcuffs off, allowing her the freedom to masturbate and bring herself to orgasm. The sarcastic person that I am, I started to laugh at both the intense newness of the experience f...

The Dark Side, Pt. 7

Finally, the last stage. With the green candle put aside, I continued to whip her, this time restrained by both the leash and handcuffs. I continued the whipping, and was stunned to see the pattern an...

The Dark Side, Pt. 6

From there things went to the next level. She asked for a hood we had purchased, a vinyl face mask that covered her entire head with only a hole for her mouth. From here, things got tougher for me.&nb...

The Dark Side, Pt. 5

The first lashes were the toughest for me to do, and yet I finally stopped asking if she was okay because she demanded ever more. In this image you can see the long welts forming under her rib cage, s...

The Dark Side, Pt. 4

With a butt plug we had acquired at the porn shop, she asked me to go to the next phase, which required using a whip we had also purchased. I had been raised my whole life to never raise my hand in an...

The Dark Side, Pt. 4

The mood was tense and dark in my living room, the way she wanted it to be, and though she had arranged and designed the entire experience, clearly I was the one in control. I finally understood what ...

The Dark Side, Pt. 3

The thing people need to realize about Tiffany is that she is intense and real, never one to shy away from the harsh realities of her desires. She was dedicated to this shoot in a very tangible way, t...

The Dark Side, Pt. 2

Being the dorky, analytical guy that I am, who also had no experience in the BDSM world, I researched imagery and lifestyles of the culture for a while once she brought the idea to me. From there, we ...

The Dark Side, Pt. 1

Anyone familiar with Tiffany Helm's photos is aware that she is very comfortable with BDSM and the darker side of her sexuality. She credits me for helping develop her modeling career since I was the ...

This was only my second shoot with Shelby Lyn in the LA area, but I knew it was special. I'm so honored to have these images featured on Playboy's website in the new MUSE section.

Shelby Lyn for Playboy.com, Pt. 12

Towards the end of the shoot, Shelby was just relaxing and enjoying the water, knowing we had captured some quality images. Once we wrapped, we both quickly packed up and went back to the other requir...

Shelby Lyn for Playboy.com, Pt. 11

Shelby is very protective of not appearing fully topless in her image, yet like most models I know who have that personal restriction, they go as far as possible up to that line.

Shelby Lyn for Playboy.com, Pt. 10

I had never been to my friend's house before and could not have asked for a better location. Not only was the backyard in the perfect place to catch the sun, but the white exteriors just made Shelby p...

Shelby Lyn for Playboy.com, Pt. 9

"Now it's time for a little bootie," she said as she eased in and out of the warm hot tub. She was just glad that she didn't have to freeze in the pool, which had been the original plan. As expected, ...
