I woke up one day, and was thinking about cookies that had gotten angry. So here they are. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454876696247-16LL7P5OIRK7O0AA36OW/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography - Masking Tape A personal image made to describe my work in an instant: a simple object turned into a visual story. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454876357683-HZWWGSF4OHLLQ8TZG1JK/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography - Hat on Table Another photo done for a musician for a compilation album of demo songs.

The overall concept was to create painterly photos that showcased food as art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1413662377302-VVXAC67T1MMHW1849URA/Fish.jpg Commercial Photography - Fish on Table Another in the series of images entitled "Food As Art" made for a catering company. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1413661731964-9QKHVT2XH3XFCVTH5KKX/Asparagus.jpg Commercial Photography - Asparagus in Drawer After doing this image for the "Food As Art" series, I decided that dresser drawers are really the only place to keep asparagus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1404924807537-35O4S69KTHGKIHKYUV7C/Pears-and-Berries.jpg Commercial Photography - Pears and Berries One of my favorite photos I've ever made. Also from the "Food as Art" series. This one was done to have the feeling of a classic still life painting that would be seen hanging in a museum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454876285838-VL7SCVJPD9V12AQDW5XQ/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography - Molasses Disaster Made as an album cover for the Chicago blues band, Molasses, for a project titled Molasses Disaster.

We wanted it to have the feel of jars someone might see in their grandmother's cupboard. And it does. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454868155369-QG7IRJY7KLDG228D7E07/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1458831259211-JVPPNV644XITH5K6H5BQ/Family-Pics-formatted.jpg Commercial Photography - Family Photos This was a way to do a group photograph of my family, but with most of them gone, I turned them into a still-life. I'm assuming most of them would have like it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454876420852-RD6S0C4175BPNE2IQHQH/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography - Stop Smoking Image This was made for a series of smoking cessation brochures. If a picture really is worth a thousand words, then this says all that needs to be said about smoking in just a few. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1458833372424-1LM9TL49A1NSROXXC1UT/Beaker-formatted.jpg Commercial Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454876674523-NPWE61RXV16HC8DGKWXP/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography - Daffodil Made for a booklet about geriatrics and aging.

The image conveys simplicity, and is elegant, yet masculine. The natural lighting provides exactly the right amount of drama. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1458835244192-MRR4LOAWH59D5BTLY0ST/Navy-Coat-formatted.jpg Commercial Photography - Coat on Chair Made for an upscale woman's boutique in New York, I wanted to shoot the coat in a gritty loft, to call attention to the luxury construction in the garment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737917164440-C59P54KABWM7IBMG33MF/Gino-Franco-Watch.jpeg Commercial Photography - Gino Franco Men's Watch A Gino Franco watch shot at an angle to make it look larger than life. The lighting was meant to be dramatic and make the bezel pop, and yet give a mood of mystery by having the watch emerge out of velvety blackness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737917265342-29IETPA0XAZ77T37U2KA/Swiss-Group-formatted.jpg Commercial Photography - Gino Franco Men's Watches Grouping I shot a lot of watches for commercial purposes, and for Gino Franco, I usually lit them very dramatically at angles that made them look strong and masculine. We wanted to do a duo, so chose one with a metal band and one with leather to show the variety of the brand in one shot. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1738788116985-300IKI8T0ZYCQ4GKUB3F/TK571-rasta.jpeg Commercial Photography - TKO Watches Social Media Image I was working with a social media manager shooting watches in Soho, NYC, and arranged the mirror faced digital watch to reflect the neighborhood scene behind me, and was I was shooting this cool dude opened the door and came out and posed for us and gave us this amazing image. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454868100386-DC89MWOPC59Q54RBJBLE/16-9-masking-tape.jpg Commercial Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737917291499-L5HDUBNS7AD53G60UD8I/TK639-Bench.jpg Commercial Photography - TKO Watches Social Media Image A TKO watch shot made in a series around Soho.

I had been listening to Christmas carols earlier in the day, and had the song Silver and Gold running through my head, so I used it as inspiration for this sparkling glittery image. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454867951050-SA2WZXZITEJ0GEHX48KE/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1454866306311-P5W7W8MXWPC28ZOXWG6O/image-asset.jpeg Commercial Photography https://www.kevinpstephens.com/still-life-2 daily 0.75 2015-09-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1405283784003-HEF3JKLVYNC3HSET8UNU/Masking-Tape_edited-1.jpg Commercial Still Life - v. 2 - Masking Tape One thing I like to do, is take everyday objects and elevate them.

It was his house that he had spent decades transforming into art. I discovered that when I walked in his front door one day, thinking it was open to the public, and he was just watching tv with his wife. He was kind enough to give me a tour and let me photography whatever I wanted. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737931423870-7Y7WKWEI68B011H7EDQJ/Bat-Mannequin.jpg Art Photography - Mannequins at The Brooklyn Army Terminal It always amazes me how often I find people have taken mannequin forms apart and reassembled them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922592535-5ZOH829T3WBJTG6G3R61/Mannequin-Heads.jpg Art Photography - Mannequin Heads on Pikes at the NYC Public Library I think the title is self explanatory. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919149479-MFUJEPV0DB38JL5AWSOR/Glass-Plant-1.jpg Art Photography - Glass Recycling Plant 1 This is at a glass recycling plant in Okmulgee Oklahoma, and it was one of the most amazing looking places I’ve ever seen.

The entire time I was in this amazing place working, I could hear glass shifting and falling, and so there was a constant musical tinkling sound surrounding me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919230585-TOMCDR8AES8LOAG4E5YB/Glass-Plant-4.jpg Art Photography - Glass Recycling Plant 4 It never fails to astound me how much stuff we throw away. There was literally every color of glass bottle in this giant hill of glass that you could possibly imagine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919256196-MEB74R430ZW7CG70Y75J/Glass-Plant-7.jpg Art Photography - Glass Recycling Plant in B&W 1 I’m not sure if the building was already there and was gradually consumed by broken glass, or if they built it later, and the glass piled up, but it was striking to see in person. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919276520-8HRGDJ3G4F4TV4ZX8KWV/Glass-Plant-5.jpg Art Photography - Glass Recycling Plant in B&W 2 Inside the building from the previous image. It was unsettling, like at any moment the glass was going to come rushing in and bury everything with it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919291808-J2KXZFVS28JU6CJ0YEKA/Glass-Plant-6.jpg Art Photography - Glass Recycling Plant in B&W 3 I never quite understood why they left the building there in the middle of all of this broken glass. It felt like the structure was defiant, despite knowing that ultimately it would lose and be consumed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919339550-U2YC4PDTWRUQIY4DR8AF/Hubcaps.jpg Art Photography - Hubcaps, Bob's Museum It’s always interesting to me that some people choose to take what they find, and transform their homes into art with it, live with it. Bob was such a person. Every Inch of his house was an art exhibition. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1472496302319-SOP04IW1R2FVB5PTBRRH/tractor+engine.jpg Art Photography - Tractor Engine Quite simply, my Dad’s tractor. I must have seen it a thousand times, and one day I saw it with new eyes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922255886-DJRYIZJOXQPTCDKEUWRV/Exhibit.jpg Art Photography - Alberto Giacometti Exhibit at the Guggenheim I looked up, and noticed that the gentleman standing in front of the Giacometti sculpture looked as if one of the statues had come to life. I wanted to ask him to pose by it, but couldn’t quite figure out how to tell him he looked like the art to me, so settled for this image. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1591713504819-B15065PZV521BDT9H14V/bike+bk.jpg Art Photography - Bicycle in Front of School, Brooklyn I loved the shadows on the sidewalk and how the mural looked almost like somebody had parked their bike in front of giant sea anemone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922342551-4F5RVNT3H2FCED9NS3EK/Subway.jpg Art Photography - Subway Rider 1 I will sometimes take a camera right out on the subway and nobody seems to mind. I noticed her face was completely obscured by the way the light was falling and how striking that was. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1591713715142-FH80E32X7JTHO2COV6LE/n+train.jpg Art Photography - Subway Rider 2 I happened to be the only other person on the train that day, and thought the way the light was hitting this rider, it made her almost look like a silhouette painting from the 19th century. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922798491-E7LCM0XUJ7RX719M2H8O/Subway-2.jpg Art Photography - Subway Exit and Snow New York City had a such a massive blizzard, we had to crawl over this giant pile of snow just to get out of the subway. The shapes of passengers trying to navigate it was fascinating to me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1591713590093-OVOOMNJM6J5WR55VSDZD/clothesline.jpg Art Photography - Clothesline, Brooklyn I looked over, and saw this clothesline with clothes on it and the light made it look like a Renaissance painting. The owner of the back yard saw me peeking over the fence and let me take some photos. I’m always surprised when people let do that. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922310989-PP2WF7O9FNG7OR8U0NTB/Port-Authority.jpg Art Photography - Port Authority New York City I was leaving on a bus, and noticed the light streaming in on the side of that bus. Out of nowhere this man appeared and made this shot something else entirely. I’m not sure how else to explain it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922460488-BXFERIKEHDUF9SFO1XHG/Door-Window.jpg Art Photography - Door, Window, and Graphic Simply one of things I see when walking around New York City. It made me feel like she was at the door of an old speakeasy and I was being asked for the password. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922374736-GCUXEL5E4RLNUV9H7TBA/Chinatown.jpg Art Photography - Store Window The quality of the light and the reflections caught my eye. It looks almost like a surrealist painting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922499296-BMZX20K22T4N817FVWNR/Graf-Wall.jpg Art Photography - Wall, Graphic, and Shadows I’ve never not been fascinated by shadows falling on walls. And in New York City, shadows fall across interesting art. I almost feel like these are messages in code, that I can’t quite comprehend. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922284438-OR091RTCMSJ8H0P8L8X6/Umbrellas-Rain.jpg Art Photography - People in the Rain, New York City I was safe and warm on the bus, and looked out and saw the bright umbrellas in the dim overcast light and folks struggling to move and stay as dry as they could. It almost looks like something painted by one of the artists from the Left Bank in the early 20th century. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1591713630781-QWI1P43157BTDEOY0L1V/glowing+door.jpg Art Photography - Doorway, Saint Anthony's Church The door at the end of the corridor had dim security light on the other side, and so I used my flash and aimed it at various points along the wall to paint in detail. This is one of those images that I never would have been able to duplicate. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737920534519-F4Y9BZBX2HNRPTQPTW9X/ScreenDoor-2.jpg Art Photography - Screen Door, Tree Limb An old building on my family’s farm back in Oklahoma. Some of my favorite images have been shot under conditions where there was little light and I was required to stand stock still holding my camera as tightly as I could. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737922234135-FCX7VSH46ACD3UV9JCSX/Building-Sky.jpg Art Photography - Noble Center Wall and Light A corner of a building called the Noble Center at Oklahoma State University. A theme with me has always been shadows on walls. The angle of the shot along with the light give this a real surrealist edge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919321228-CT4R7SJG39BAOQ1N9ZBX/Hose-Deck.jpg Art Photography - Pool Hose on Deck The lattice work with the light streaming through made something as simple as a vacuum hose for a swimming pool take on an entirely different aura. It almost seems as if it is reaching out of the frame. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1591713648346-1GYP3BP4VKJOKIOLLGPP/hook+wall.jpg Art Photography - Towel Hook on Wall I’ve always noticed the stuff that everybody walks past every day. A simple hook for hanging a towel takes on a different quality when seen in black and white and accented by highlights on the wall around it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1591713671144-3F2LGCTI2QCOMSRPT4W4/Hooks+sky.jpg Art Photography - Towel Hooks, Wall, Sky I thought these simple hooks for hanging towels or bathing suits almost seemed like fingers, beckoning to look over them at the amazing clouds swirling overhead. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1591713692441-9RQAX9EJV7UI1KRDCBWU/hose.jpg Art Photography - Vacuum Hose, Deck The first thing that comes to mind about this image, is that I like to combine hard geometric lines with organic forms. It is a constant theme in my photographic work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919388799-CDWNMIR5HNSPNYAU3XO7/Nannie-1.jpg Art Photography - Nannie' House - Broom and Back Porch Door My grandmother kept this ratty old broom around for sweeping leaves off the stoop and sidewalk. She found a use for everything, and never got rid of stuff even after it had frayed around the edges years ago. All I ever had to do was set up my camera and not move a thing to capture artistic images around her place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919406040-2IYI4A6VUO8TMZUBM4PW/Nannie-2.jpg Art Photography - Nannie's House - Utility Closet Door I was always fascinated by this door that went into a utility closet at my Nannie’s house. Nothing much was in that closet, but the door with the blinds and the beat up doorknob always seemed like there should be something amazing behind it. But nope. I always loved the door though. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919423352-FCRBS0OSN1HZOD1DULP1/Nannie-4.jpg Art Photography - Nannie's House - Gourds in Window My grandmother grew dipper gourds and always had them around various places at her house. These hung in front of the window on her utility porch, and I always thought they looked amazing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737920578655-ZW63WO5NJMGJL76BJG72/Nannie-3.jpg Art Photography - Nannie's House - Garlic Buds in Vase My grandmother, Nannie, had so many interesting looking things that always seemed like art pieces just all over the place at her house. These garlic buds were in a cool vase, on an old trunk with beautiful light streaming over them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919435970-CIYNOSZV8MRB3CCYP0VL/Nannie-5.jpg Art Photography - Nannie's House - Ironing Board and Bag of Clothespins My grandmother really hated being photographed. To say it made her angry is an understatement of an understatement. So I spent a lot of time photographing the things she loved and kept around her house. This ironing board probably dated back to the 1940s and was very much her. Right down to her keeping it in a spot where the light hit it in a way that made it look like art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919453649-E5MRAQZ35O4YBVKACYM9/Nannie-6.jpg Art Photography - Nannie's House - Rose Vine and Shadow My grandmother had this scrawny rose bush, or vine rather, since I was a kid. The afternoon light always made it look more mystical than it was. But it was always there. I’m really grateful I was able to capture this photo of it playing in the light and shadow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919547037-9W7HPN9KHJZV0GWEX5B5/Bed-Rail.jpg Art Photography - Rusty Bed Frame The shapes and crooked angles can tell a story depending on who sees them. Once again, I’m drawn to organic shapes and geometric lines. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919534899-JH8NPCIPX5MO72YAUNYZ/Screen-Door.jpg Art Photography - Rusty Screen Door I spent so much time photographing this old door and it told a different story every time I pointed my camera at it. The building it led into is long gone, but the stories are still here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737920473014-HYNMLXA4ZO2S7S0G36N6/Stoop.jpg Art Photography - Door, Stoop This was an old shack that was on a piece of land my family bought that adjoined the farm. It always seemed to me the building was something out of another time, so I made this image to reflect that idea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737920518192-AQOBORM14KQ6B27Q2O7P/Three-Chairs.jpg Art Photography - Three Chairs I saw these plastic chairs that were sitting in front of an old barbershop that had gone out of business. Waiting on customers that were never going to show up. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737920489302-076R9W4N06VNDW9HV7CL/Tire.jpg Art Photography - Old Tire, Shadows I’ll always notice the abandoned and forgotten items that people don’t want anymore. I can’t help but wonder why they can’t quite bring themselves to get completely rid of things, why they can’t quite take that last step throw it away. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737920443214-H3XQ2W01Z1EY0RPSPG5Q/Wall-Shadows.jpg Art Photography - Screen Door, Shadows The shadows seem to be reaching for something, I’m not sure what, though. This was the old shack my family bought that I was always fascinated by. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1737919505122-KR40Q58VYYUEP8ZJXUZZ/Mailboxes.jpg Art Photography - Mailboxes A row of old rural route mailboxes in the small community where I grew up in Oklahoma.

This was designed as the poster and promotional images for a film about a man who discovers his mother was actually a deceased, cult movie actress, and the fallout that ensues from the discovery. It was a fairly dark plot, and had a sort of 1970s feel, so inspiration was drawn from posters for the films The Eyes of Laura Mars and The Black Windmill. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1494943910427-HIJ4MAGI1NPM6WPHDRZU/BD+Voltaire+poster_formatted.jpg Graphic Design - bd voltaire movie poster Another project for Vivasan Pictures. This film deals with the events surrounding the attacks in Paris, Friday the 13th, November 2015. I therefore decided to keep the look and feel of the poster on the somber side, while using a simple typeface, set in white against the dark tones of the image of a lone figure fleeing down a dark street. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e281c7e4b07269322a2395/1458841896598-XOZH4WIZY2RX7SKN9MTT/elle.jpg Graphic Design - Full Page Ad - ELLE Accessories - TKO Orlogi For potential clients who wonder how fast I can do a beautiful ad to run in a major magazine? I got the assignment at ten in the morning and photographed the watch, retouched it to perfection, designed the layout, did the prepress tech, and made the deadline by five in the afternoon the same day.
