As both a photographer and photoshop artist, I enjoy turning reality to fantasy. By utilizing specialized lighting, backgrounds and Green Screen techniques allow me to place a model in almost any scene while shooting in a controlled environment. From there I utilize as many as 96 layers within photoshop to complete a piece.
I had over 24 Gallery Showings in Denver, CO from 2005-2007, and plan shows in the Pacific Northwest soon. I shoot with both Digital and Film. As an avid camera collector, I also utilize cameras dating as early as 1908 with custom modifications that allow me to use standard medium format film.
My current and continuing series "Angels and Spirits" is now being performed in my new 900 sq ft studio with MM Model Kari Marie (Mayhem #390875).
I'm very excited about my new space, as in late April, we begin a large scale Cyc Wall installation, large-scale " soft" studio lighting and a Kitchenette/Lounge area.
My last adventure was being hired to document the grand opening of Spago in the Ritz Carlton Resort in Beaver Creek CO featuring Wolfgang Puck (Dec 7-9 2007).

Honestly, as a photographer, I really prefer still objects (buildings), or experienced models. For some strange reason, I find myself being hired for "event" gigs every 3 months or so, that are way over the top No complaints, except I have to upgrade and modify my flash system for that specific event.

My next adventure in late April/May is shooting a new line of Sail Boats, both indoors with Blue Screen and outdoors on the water as well. Yikes! The lighting required for the indoor shoot is a huge multi-octagon soft-box system

Thanks for viewing!
Kurt
