I want to thank all the Deviant comments and adds, etc. and give a statement about my work.

I am an artist who began photographing nudes when some of my nude art models wanted me to take pictures of them for their own uses. I am not a commercial art photographer with a large studio. I use inexpensive digital cameras. I do not use any special lighting, etc. Most of my shots are with a flash. I post the raw images usually without any Photoshop work. What you see is what I shot. I often do not eliminate the red eye or otherwise clean up the shot. My studio is messy; littered with props and clothes. I take a journalistic approach to my work; a record of my times with the models. I do not sell my images.

I also paint and draw; usually from life, but sometimes I will use the photo images as reference.

I do not spend much time setting up the shot. I do not pose the model. Instead, I prefer to simply observe her and record in a split-second moment what is happening. My photos are a record of our time spent together in the studio, her bedroom, the office building after hours where my studio is located, and other locations. I also video the sessions.

I find that the best shots are the girls expressing themselves in a raw manner; nude and totally honest. I like the retro feel of film noire and pin-ups. Many of the girls I work with channel that feeling. Some have a natural affinity for the look and poses of the pin-up. My pin-ups are messier and more modern with a 21st Century girl attitude: nude and straightforward, strong, fearless, yet very feminine. In a time when porn is more prevalent and available than ever, these girls represent a return to the feminine allure of the the past.

This site is a tribute to the many incredibly wonderful girls I have worked with. I love them all. I have spent so many delightful hours with them, smoking, drinking, discussing their lives and dreams. We have collaborated in Art. They have inspired me, become my muse, and been my closest, dearest friends. They have taught me patience, love, and trust like no others have. They are the finest people on the planet.

So this is a tribute to all the "Jay" girls. I say that because so many mothers named their daughters Jane, Jessica, Julie, Jules, Jenny, Jill, about 20 years ago.

Stiletto Studios

JESSICA: is my soul mate. She is an "Old Soul" by her own admission. (I have known several young girls who are similar.) She is my best friend and fellow deviant. She has taught me so much and is my collaborator in art. Jessica has no concept of time as we know it and lives by her own rules. She is a girl of extreme opposites. I love her. She is over 21. She is completely natural being naked; wearing only her stilettos. She is fearless. She is honest and generous to a fault. She never wears underwear, even with her miniskirts. She is my favorite, but I will continue to post other girls as well.
