About Me
Hi, I'm Thom. My dad gave me an interest in photography as a young kid, and I've been seriously shooting since 2003. I'm in my 50s and want to create some cool emotive art.
I live in the Portland, Oregon area now. (Really, Vancouver, WA.) My partner is a professional photographer. She's awesome! Let's make some art! ---------------------------------------------------- COVID INFO: I am fully vaccinated, and will only work with vaccinated models, MUAs, stylists. Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------- I want to make some Art with other creative spirits. I'm drawn to quiet moments, moments between, suspended anticipation, timelessness, mindful quietude, dream states, dance. I think the human form is lovely. I also love capturing poetic images, a quiet romanticism. I am doing four series: 1. Human Form in Motion and Position: dancers, yoga practitioners, gymnasts, fire twirlers, aerialists, etc. In classic leotards or minimal simple clothing or draping, looking eternal. The human form, exerting or at rest, as Art. 2. Pictorialist / Vintage Fine Art Nudes, previously for my late wife's mixed-media project. Kinda quaint and old-timey. She took the prints and applied paint and gesso, made a cool, dimensional artwork. May work on those techniques myself going forward to honor her. I have a replica Petzval lens that might work well for this. They would be similar in style to these, with draping if needed to adjust the photo to your comfort level: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4080/4798827719_902d367e9d.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4135/4799463170_d70e2961d5.jpg (I will respect your modesty requests in the release and all final images as well. That said, you have the same stuff as 50% of the people on the planet, so it's not that big a deal!) 3. Moody, poetic romanticism, pictorialism, as evidenced in my port and on this photographer's site: http://danielmurtagh.com/black-and-white/ 4. Light painting. The subject is in darkness, and I paint light upon them with flashlights, LEDs, etc, and the background to make a magical image. To see some examples: http://500photographers.blogspot.com/2010/09/photographer-112-emil-schildt.html I also want to shoot Polaroids, medium format film, and try my vintage Kodak A1 that looks like this: https://coimages.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/images/213/917/medium_cd0376_012_080509_1974_54_Kodak_Eastman_No3_folding_camera.jpg Okay, now let's make some Art!
