American Expat from Los Angeles now in Sweden as of September 2021!

As an experienced fine art and erotic photographer for two decades, my current focus of work is on my dark/horror fine art series HUSK that utilizes custom masks that I sculpt by hand.

My past work has been collected into 7 solo art and photo books over the last 20 years as well Taschen's THE NEW EROTIC PHOTOGRAPHY volumes 1 and 2.
