The Print

The prints you are viewing are not digitally produced, nor are they a giclee print or reproduction. All of my images are captured on film and printed to high-quality photographic paper using a wet chemical process. All prints are unmounted and signed en verso. I guarantee satisfaction, a reprint, or a refund.

The digital scans you are viewing do not do justice to the detail of these spectacular images, most shot in medium format (6x6 or 6x7)!

The Photographer
I am a photographer from the Pittsburgh area, focusing primarily on alternative photography, artistic content, landscapes, artistic nudes, and portraits. My work is currently on display in various galleries, establishments, and private collections across the United States, Hawaii, Canada, Italy, Scotland, London, Belgium, New Caledonia, Australia, Portugal, Germany, and Hong Kong.

Look for my work on michelle7.com - exhibited April 2004 and February 2006!

Deek Magazine (www.deekmagazine.com) featured some of my work in their February 2004 issue.

The Dane Gallery at Indian Orchard Mills in Massachussetts exhibited some of my prints in an exhibit back in April 2004.

The Models
Amber is a model and actress with a list of credits including Film (Law & Order Special Victims Unit, Dating Game, HBO's The Wire, and CBS' The District) and Print (Splash Magazine, Le Mystere line of lingerie, Men’s Journal Magazine, Maxim (magazine release party), Savvy Magazine, The Hill Magazine, and Playboy). These prints are from a shoot at Dixmont Hospital in Pittsburgh on April 9, 2004. Ashley is a young woman from the Pittsburgh area who I had the privilege of photographing in the spring of 2003. These prints are from a shoot in the studio on January 18, 2004 - our first one containing artistic nudes.

Dorothy is an actress and model from NYC with an amazing list of credits and appearances in her professional career. We met up in Greenwich, Connecticut for this shoot.

Hel is a well-known fetish model from the US. After negotiating locations and dates for a year, we finally got together on January 17, 2004 for a shoot in the studio and also at Dixmont Hospital in Pittsburgh. As we were shooting in Reed Hall at Dixmont, the sound of preliminary demolition could be heard on another building... this may well be my last shoot at Dixmont.

Natasha Kay is an actress with film roles, television appearances, and quite an impressive career! We worked together just outside of NYC one evening in January 2004. That was the same evening when a wrong turn on the way to NYC took me into NJ, then I had a brief tour of the Bronx at 1am while on my way to CT. The prints are quite intriguing...

Jennie is a model from Pittsburgh who has done some commercial and print ads. We collaborated on three photo shoots in November and December 2003. My favorite location (and your's) - Dixmont Hospital - then some studio work after the weather took a turn toward colder temperatures.

Tamara traveled in from New York for one VERY cold photo shoot at night during November 2003 in three abandoned buildings and outside in the snow! We called it a night when the spotlight batteries gave out and worked together again in December 2003 - indoors with heat and electricity... those images will be added shortly.

Michelle K is a professional model from the mid-west who traveled into Pittsburgh specifically for this shoot with the artist at Dixmont State Hospital - an abandoned insane asylum - in August 2003. We have another session scheduled for early January 2004.

Lisa Tyler is a professional model from NYC who traveled into Pittsburgh with her entourage for a photo shoot, also at Dixmont State Hospital in August 2003. She appears regularly in magazines, calendars, and print work and was incredible to work with!

Christina traveled in from Philadelphia for this photo shoot at Dixmont State Hospital. She is a professional model who has appeared in print, magazines, and commercial work. The photo shoot lasted for approximately 5 hours and was an intense collaborative venture into some of the more edgy work I've done.

Iris is a model from New York, famous internationally for commercial work, cd covers, magazines, and independent movies. We did three photo shoots spanning two days starting in a New York loft, in Pittsburgh at Dixmont State Hospital, and finishing in my studio for some very sensual and intimate images.
