Often I realize that as I photograph, I am under the influence of other artists. Most of the time, though, I see the influence only after the work is completed. So is the case with these three images. I wasn't thinking "noir" or even "Veronica Lake" in my portrait of Nichole. The pose was entirely Nichole's idea (and she didn't know Veronica at all). All I did was click the shutter. The Madonna is a Madonna but with a twist. My photo is the only one in the world with a broken doll. As far as I know. A person seeing "Rachel" in a gallery said, "It looks like something DaVinci would do." I eagerly accepted the compliment.
