About Me

I don't think anyone reads this part... text always looses the battle against pictures. But just in case...

I'm Burke, a Photographer based out of Brooklyn. I also direct film and host burlesque shows in the city.

Check out www.thingstolookat.com to see more of my photography and motion work.

burke.

Some things people have said about my work:

"This is so exciting... Its a little risque... It's not... Um... Ah... This is not... Yeah... It's not Porn! It's definitely not porn."
--Bill Press, nationally syndicated talk show host.

"This is a great work of art, I must say. Its like something my father would hang in the garage when I was a kid."
--Bill Press, one week later.

"Guaranteed to get your heart rate going and your blood pressure up."
--Christy Harden Smith, LeftInTheWest.

"Professionally and sexily lensed..."
--Wells Dunbar, Austin Chronicle.

"The women he captures offer inticate and vibrant mosaics... The viewer is often left with a hungry curiosity, piecing together the plot of his prismatic, silent movie."
--Sez G, Eros Zine

"suavely directed by Burke Heffner."
--Matthew Murray, talkinbroadway.com

  • Posted on 12/11/2011 by LaBelleFille   
    True, very true......bad sex does the same thing only in a negative way!

  • Posted on 08/06/2011 by Roxie   
    Why hello there!!! Love alllll of your photos!!! Come to Cali!!!!

  • Posted on 08/06/2011 by ThingsToLookAt   
    New set with Lilex... must think of new incentives.

  • Posted on 07/29/2011 by ThingsToLookAt   
    Vote for my new set with OkiDokiOkami!

    I've set aside 12 high res images from the shoot. Anyone who votes for this set 10 or more times gets access to these awesome unreleased images.

    That's right ladies and gentlemen: 10 votes = 12 additional images! That's less effort then ordering someone a drink, and fifty times more likely to get you a glimpse of a beautiful naked girl!

    If you've given Oki's set ten votes, message me so I can share the bonus images with you.

    x,
    b.

  • Posted on 08/06/2011 by SadPenguin
