Chasing Light
Welcome. This is where I share my work and also the work of others, those that inspire me, the weird, the great, the unusual.
It is a goddamn marvel this life. Take a look.
Constantine | Tilda Swinton as Gabriel
There are few things finer than this casting choice and styling.
Hanoi | Big Toe
One of my favorite images.
The reasons?
Saint Petersburg | Vi, Chaise VII
André Kertész | Landing Pigeon, New York, 1960
This was taken around 59th Street where they had demolished the houses, and I saw a pigeon flying in and out.
Hanoi | Lunch
Shot on my favorite film, the original Agfa APX 400, printed on the legendary paper, Agfa 111.
Arthur C. Clarke | The HAL – IBM Myth
And I’ve been trying for years to stamp out the legend that the word, that the letters HAL was derived from IBM by one letter displacement.
Bucharest | Birthday Dinner
I was at a cafe in Bucharest and met this lovely group of people at the table behind me.
Helmut Newton | Cindy Crawford’s Legs
The woman in the image can be mysterious and to me I think it’s important that she is mysterious.
Cairo | The Bakery
I was lost in a neighborhood in the eastern part of Cairo. I had entered this warren of tiny dirt floored alleys and was wandering and unable to find my way out. I started to walk down an dead end when I saw this boy bringing out freshly baked bread.
Garry Winogrand | Leica M4
Garry Winogrand's Leica M4
Budapest | District X
“Draw, Antonio, draw, Antonio, draw and do not waste time.”
One of the few things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time.
Budapest | Semmelweis Egyetem
Roaming the streets in Budapest at twilight, I heard the sounds of music coming from one of the stately massive relic buildings through an open window.
Ann Ray | Willem Dafoe
In the middle of the night, a group of baboons came down and went through our packs and all that stuff.
Paris | Bugs Bunny, Cafe
We had finished shooting in my AirBnb and I took her out for a drink and some pastries.
Annie Dillard | The Death of Archimedes
During the Roman assault on Syracuse, Archimedes, oblivious to the tumult around him
Saint Petersburg | Vi, Chair VI
Saint Petersburg | Vi, Chair V
Belgrade | Tijana, Buckethead
I was shooting Tijana in Belgrade, a beautiful model, but things weren’t clicking, there was no rhythm happening.
Ellen Von Unwerth | Motion & Blur
There is a technique that Ellen Von Unwerth continually revisits that I’ve never seen any other pro shooter use to such great effect.
