Hi. I collect mannequins and enjoy taking photos of them, so that'll be mostly what you find here.

After putzing around with simple fashion photography for a while, I'm slowly trying to build up a portfolio based around mannequins in real-life situations: on the job, waiting for the bus, etc. I'm intrigued by artifice and the ways we've come to accept it in modern society, and this is one of the ways I approach that idea artistically.

All photos were taken with a Nikon Coolpix 2100 on a Velbon VGB-3 tripod. Auto-leveling occurs in Photoshop before uploading, but I try to keep the artistry of the original photo intact as much as possible.
