ok, go easy I was just a student lol..

























All photos taken while in Medical photography school, all models (excluding my niece 'Poppy' and my shy 3 y/o daughter Angela (who's now 32) were all military attending Navy schools there in Bethesda.

seen are some notes I found at the bottom of the box (I didn't even know I had) taken back during photos sessions (late 1980s)

At that time I hadn't done a lot of formal portraits and I wanted to score high on upcoming projects so I placed notices around the school asking for models. It was a win/win situation because I got the experience I needed and they got to keep the pics!

The two bottom landscapes were both shot on 4x5 infrared negative film. Infrared has very limited uses in photography other than abstract interpretation and some industrial uses. However in medical it's useful because it can be used in clinical studies since infrared light penetrates the skin about a 1/10th - 2/10 of an inch and often reveals veins beneath the skin which you would otherwise never see.

All pics are 16x20 in and printed on beautiful (and I mean "Beautiful" Ilford paper).


That building btw is Naval Hospital Oakland nestled in the beautiful and upscale Oakland hills, my first duty stationed after the school. Within 2 years after arriving I was put in charge of running the med photo dept. This was 1990-1995, best 5 years of my life : ) Decommissioned in 1995-1996, it has since been torn down. A ton of great memories.

A little better pic of my daughter at Easter 1990:
