"I am inspired by many things, the beauty of the model in front of my lens, a setting we may be in at the time, music running through my head and work of other photographers."

Nina Kay

"Some models, newer ones in particular, are sometimes unsure of themselves in front of the camera. I create a dialogue with them and reinforce the idea that we are just a couple of old friends, out to have some fun and make some photographs. Keeping everything very low-key and relaxing is the way I like to work. I'll coax them into poses generated off of what they are showing me, not dictate poses"

model: Theresa Solberg

"Just because everyone has told you "You're so beautiful you should be a model" doesn't mean it won't take some work. Constantly pour over images and work them yourself in front of that mirror. Moving from one pose to another and knowing how your body appears is tantamount to your success"

"Five things I can't live without? a beautiful girl in front of my lens, my camera gear, computer, close friends and diet coke."

Nina Kay

"Photography for me is seeing or creating beautiful, purposeful light on a beautiful subject."

model: Paloma Jacinto

"A day well spent makes me smile. Anytime I have my camera in my hand, I'm smiling (at least inwardly). Seeing my subject's reaction to the photos we are creating makes me smile ..... when she jumps up and down and screams, I've been known to laugh out loud! My pup always makes me smile"

"I love big, bold color. David La Chappelle is a god in my world. I'm constantly trying to move in that direction"
