In contrast to mass medias approach to marriage, the images collected for this exhibition are meant to challenge the very root of union in this contemporary climate.”

Retro Monster Masks 6

My husband Jason collects monster masks. Eventually I had to declare that I only had one rule in our marriage, “NO monsters in the bedroom.” The monsters are almost everywhere else though, so when he came to me one day asking that I photograph all of the monsters in different classic settings, I sighed, but agreed, on the condition that he do all the styling. Every few days he came to me with a different idea that I diligently photographed, and we ended up with quite a collection. Below are some of my favorites (Ok, I did have a lot of fun.) You can see the whole series at Jason’s Flickr group.

Ghost Hunters!

Over the summer I was lucky enough to work as the still photographer on three episodes of the show Ghost Hunters for the Sci-Fi Channel.

You can see some more of my images on the Ghost Hunters website or on TV Guide.com.
