Bethesda building in infrared

Canon EOS D60 (infrared converted)

In 2005 (after having dipped into professional photography in 2004), I bought my 3rd Canon DSLR (a 1DmII) and then had my second DSLR (D60) converted to infrared.

This is from my first outing with the converted camera in 2005.

I loved the challenge it brought along with the often striking results it yielded in black & white.

Stevi 1A

I worked with Stevi for the first time in September of 2005.

Although she was only just getting into modeling, she was naturally talented, effortlessly beautiful, extremely humble, and was a whiz at doing her own makeup. She was everything I had been looking for in a collaborator.

This shoot would mark the first of 5 sessions we would do together before I prematurely left the east coast for California.

Impact

Canon EOS 1D Mark II

On a rainy day on Cape Cod in 2005, my brother and I passed some time taking photos of water dripping from the roof.

The first and only time I’ve ever tried to capture high-speed imagery (on purpose).
