About Me

One day I typed "girls with guns" into Google image search.  The results were horrifying.

There is no reason why this kind of photography has to be tacky, offensive, or badly done.  Yet it almost always is.  I'd like to change that.

Things you won't see here:
Girls licking guns
Girls pointing guns at cameras*, themselves, or other models
Girls in bikinis
Oh-so-clever phallic references
Unsafe gunhandling

Things I hope you WILL see here:
Photos that capture a moment of an interesting story
Photos with a little bit of humor
Dignity for all involved.


The images I currently have on this profile are a rough indication of some of the thematic directions I would like to go in.  They all need more attention to makeup, backgrounds, lighting, and post-processing.  The real thing will have all of that.

I also want to enable other photographers.  I would like to see lots of different visions and styles in this theme.  I am especially, but not exclusively, interested in working with female photographers.

So, models and photographers, if you think "girls-with-guns photos that don't suck" is even slightly interesting as an idea, let's talk.

* Yes, okay, I acknowledge that sometimes this is done deliberately by those who know better, in order to make an editorial or stylistic point.  Sometimes it results in a great image; you'll see a few in my "redeem the genre" list.  I still won't do it.

Credit Notes

Thanks to Emma Lee "Feyith" (MM #453113) for her enthusiasm, patience, and willingness to experiment.

Thanks to Kari Marie (MM #390875) for moral support and a nearly unending stream of good advice.

Thanks to anyone who is willing to give this a try.

Thanks to Lt Col Jeff Cooper for codifying the four rules of firearms safety:
- All guns are always loaded.  Believe it.  Act accordingly.
- Don't point a gun at anything you're not willing to destroy.
- Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are aligned on the target and you are ready to fire.
- Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.

Remember, kids, you have to break TWO of these in order to hurt someone by accident.

I’m open to modelling with other male or female models (locals or traveling) in the studio as well as on location in various conditions & throughout a broad range of styles. My extra talents; I’m a musician, I know how to free dive which is good for underwater shots, can horse ride, go on long hikes & also can crack a stock whip, I practice yoga, & have done basic pole & aerial hoop/silks.
