After a 22 hour car drive from Portland, all I can think of is sleep. I thought this piece communicted that well. Good night until tomorrow!

Auraze
This shot was taken as part of a portfolio shoot I did with Denver designer, Armando Guerra in 2003. Armando worked for a junior wear company called Auraze in NYC for many years where he designed clothes for the “raver” scene. His designs were always colorful and unique. I love the collar and piping detail of this piece.
Singer/Songwriter Matt Morris
This portrait of Singer/Songwriter Matt Morris was done in 2007 in my studio at The Other Side Arts. Matt is an extremely talented Denver born artist who got is start in Orlando Florida on the Mickey Mouse Club with artists Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. Matt has a new album, When Everything Breaks Open, which has soulful and honest tracks like the song Money.
Matt and I met in 1997 when we were both discovering new sides of ourselves as artists. I can say that Matt definitely had an affect on how I look at the world around me.

Roy
Roy is a ballet dancer here in Denver. We did this shoot with Designer Armando Guerra. Armando designed this look which I ended up really loving. Armando never ceases to amaze me. I love being surrounded by such talented artists.
Garrett
This photo was taken as part of a “pride” issue of Metromode Magazine in 2007. It was Garrett’s first time modeling for me and he did an awesome job! I love how the natural light from the windows fall on his face.
Pride
Styled by Denver fashion designer Mondo Guerra for the 2007 gay pride issue of Metromode Magazine, this image was also exhibited in an international photography exhibit at the Center for Fine Art Photography last year. The heightened contrast of the colorful, outstretched hand against the model’s ultra-pale complexion evokes a variety of interpretations. Is the image political in nature? Does it provide a visual commentary on the process of coming out? Or is it simply a stylized reflection of the gay community itself?
