she was dressed in black.
And when she moved she moved to a beat . . . . The late winter and spring calendar is beginning to fill with scheduled shoots. Are You one of them?

Exhibition runs through March 7, 2021 . . “Excess . . .” 20 x 29 1/2” photography . . What is overstimulation? How does it affect our lives? Our saturated bodies and brains are being fed more information that they can actively process and it is hurting us. Exploring the drenching excesses in our busy lives such as screen time, religious and political issues, relationships and possessions often mean for many people, a good life is about more. Perhaps a good life is about less . . . . . . . #roadtrip #kerouac #Excess #davidleeblack #fineartphotography #blackandwhite #outofcomfortzone #Delawarearts #galleryexhibition #decklededge #blackadnwhitephotography How much time is lost when we hear a notification ping, have a desire to check email, scroll endlessly which diverts our attention from our original goals?

This is utter bullshit.

Jean was shy at first, but with the magic muah of the talented Cheri White, she quickly warmed up and we had a super fun shoot!
Jean is a true testament of why I love what I do. . . #HerStory: “Jean Kaiser’s Cousin Ed sent email in September 2019 to friends and family asking for help finding him a kidney donor. Jean researched all aspects of kidney donation and began the donation process, but was denied because her cholesterol and blood sugar were too high. Working with a nutritionist, Jean lost 20 pounds and got those health issues under control within five months. She was accepted into the kidney transplant program, passed all required testing, and donated a kidney to Ed in November 2020. Both have recovered fully and feel better than ever! . . . . #therealdeal #kidneydonor #selflesswoman #makingtheworldabetterplace #lovewhatyoudo #photoshoot #makeportrait #beforeandafter #muah #davidleeblack #giftcertificatesarecool #supportlocalartist #freewill “Spindrift”
"We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch it, we are going back from whence we came.” ~JFK Spindrift explores the delicate dance of the ocean and global water issues. Photographed on Nantucket Island, near the nuclear bunker that JFK would have been whisked away to during the Cold War, the veil represents the morning mist rising from a pond in New England that can become a part of a tsunami wave in Asia or an ice crystal on an Antarctic iceberg. Because we, the inhabitants of the world, all share the oceans and freshwater sources that sustain life on earth and provide a source of recreation and livelihood, we are intimately connected to one another. . . . . #spindrift #fineartphotography #jfkquote #oceanart #globalwaterissues #humanconnection #contemporaryart #contemporaryartist #contemporaryartists #contemporarypainting #creativelife #artoftheday #contemporaryartcurator #fineartphotography #bostondotcom #artnewengland #artscopemagazine #artgallery Before going to Paris, I knew nothing of Moulin Rouge except for the exaggerated movie. Before attending the show, I had a brief impromptu fun fashion shoot in the Parc Monceau with these two stylistic models. I miss everything about this great city, especially the cafes.
What do YOU miss about Paris? . . . . #missrealtravel #wanderer #parisstyle #paris #fashion #style #blackandwhite #parissizzles #parcmonceau #duckfashion #travelphotographer #wanderlust #explore #freewill Photographing a fitness trainer was not all about portraying muscles, gear and body image. Sometimes it is about our shared human condition of personal struggle and by truly being in the moment and experiencing the world and life as it is happening.
