I shot this portrait during a session of our Photo Club in Draveil, France.

This is the first time I spend more than an hour in Lightroom and Photoshop for a portrait, and I really like the result, it was worth it.

Jon was an actor, writer and all-around great guy I met at the 500 Club in the Mission in 1991. He offered me unlimited use of his loft on Clara Street for shoots, and that's where we made this picture in 1992.

Jon would be 60 today, his birthday. RIP.

This one was a challenge for me! I'll admit I've never done a split portrait before - and certainly not a split time period portrait. It was fun though! Thank you Lankie for giving me the opportunity to try something new! <3

A palm photo is the most intimate of pics since it can tell you so much about a person (if you read palms). For example, my life-line suggests that I will die at age 79 but then be revived as a cyborg.

My niece in a 1950s setting. Her smile is so charming. The photo was taken with an old twin-lens reflex camera, a Zeiss Ikon Ikoflex from 1952.
Gear:
Zeiss Ikon Ikoflex Ia (854/16) (Germany, 1952)

This photo was taken by my lovely wife. The next photo from the same session has been published here: and was captured using the old camera you see in the picture.
I really enjoy taking photos with this camera because you can only take 12 shots, and you look through the viewfinder downwards, not forwards.

As a photographer, I am constantly in search of inspiration, Lagos, Portugal, has proven to be an endless source of natural wonder and creative potential. Recently, I had the privilege of conducting two art nude photoshoots at Praia do Canavial in, both at the same time of day, just after sunrise. What made these shoots truly special was the unique charm that each model, and , brought to the experience.

Paloma Setaro: A Dawn of Grace

In the quiet tranquility of the early morning light, Paloma Setaro graced Praia do Canavial with her presence. The soft, warm hues of the sunrise painted the sky as Paloma effortlessly blended into the serene surroundings. The casual, carefree vibe of the shoot was a celebration of the simplicity of enjoying nature and becoming one with it.

Two of the most memorable moments from Palomas session was when she stood on the clifftop track with the early morning light. It was a moment of pure poetry, as she seemed to merge with the tranquil beauty of Praia do Canavial.

As a photographer, I found Palomas ability to connect with the environment and convey a sense of serenity truly remarkable. It was as if she had become an integral part of the coastal landscape, a testament to the harmonious relationship between humans and nature.

Maria do Mar: The Wild and Free Dawn

Two months later, under the same early morning sun, Maria do Mar brought a different energy to Praia do Canavial. The casual, carefree vibe of the shoot was a tribute to embracing the raw beauty of nature.

Two of my favorite shots from Marias session captured her in the same location and I love seeing the different energies both models brought to the shoot and the vibe I was looking for.

These two photoshoots at Praia do Canavial, with Paloma Setaro and Maria do Mar, were a testament to the ever-changing beauty of nature and the unique personalities that graced it. Palomas and Marias wild and free-spirited nature both added depth to the same breathtaking landscape. Each model brought her own style and vibe to the shoot, and as a photographer, I couldnt have asked for a more enriching experience.
