My last night shoot 2014-6-28

Gabe, Florence 2009

A dear friend from R.I. and someone who is a terrific model 

visited us in Florence in 2009. This shot taken on the balcony

of my apartment in the afternoon light.

Patty, Florence 1996

This was taken in my bed room of a friend who was taking a printmaking

class at SRISA. The building was part of the Palazzo Pucci and the 

widow of Pucci still lived there.

Julia, Florence 2001

Katie, Florence 1998

Another shot taken in one of the many apartments I've 

rented in Florence, this one had this beautiful chaise 

lounge in it. I've always had a soft spot of the reclining

nude in art history and its a motif I've often repeated

in my work.

Florence nude 2001

It may be awhile before I post work from Florence again, so I

thought it might be interesting to post some work from previous

trips. I photographed this couple in the kitchen of what had been

a 15th century monastery and was now a car garage. They were

from Missouri and had just gotten engaged!

with students at the Weitman Gallery opening

Students who were able to make the opening celebrated an exhibition 

of their work at the Weitman today. We had a great turn out and the 

work on the walls was terrific!
