Photo Shoot with James & Scott


I did a photo shoot today with James & Scott, both of whom I've shot individually on numerous occasions. The primary reason I shot them together was for my abstract nudes series, but I was also able to capture some very strong images that stand on their own. This is one such example.

Dustin

After 3 years of hounding him (and two and half years of dating) Dustin, my ex, finally agreed to do a photo shoot with me. Apprehensive that I wouldn't know his best angles and that he wouldn't take direction well, the photos were incredible despite his fears. The camera loves this man and the photos came out as steaming hot as I always knew they would. I do have "a good eye!" Just the one, but that's all I need.

Drumheller, Alberta


Had the wonderful opportunity to go to Drumheller with my dear friend and fellow photographer, John Hallum, who was in Alberta for a quick visit. We were joined (and driven) by another wonderfully generous friend, Mary Louise who hosted us in Calgary. My friend/model Myron rounded out the expedition crew to the land of hoodoos.

We arrived in Drumheller around 1pm on a blisteringly bright afternoon so we spent a good part of that battling families and rugrats at the Tyrell Museum waiting for better light to do our shoots. It was my first time at the museum and I loved it, although I was predisposed as I've always had an interest in archaeology and paleontology. Then after a delightful picnic lunch we made our way to Horseshoe Canyon (with thanx to Val Brandt for suggesting the location) to shoot the incredible landscape and for me, some nudes.

Here's a sample of some of the shots.

This blog is 89% good (and only 11% evil)

Once again, thanx to my deeply obtuse friend, Kathy Mene, I'm am now able to rest assured that my blog is suitable for the whole family (and Christians too) because it is scientifically proven to be 89% good. See for yourself.

This site is certified 89% GOOD by the Gematriculator

However ... on a happier note for my photography website, jacksonphotografix.com

This site is certified 42% EVIL by the Gematriculator
(which tells me I must be doing something right with my artwork)
