A well-known photographer was in jail Wednesday on two felony sex charges after one of his models died of an apparent drug overdose at his studio. Radford police on Saturday charged photographer Robert Edward Lee Shell, 56, with one count of sodomy against the model, 19-year-old Marion Franklin, police spokesman Ryan Funk said. A Radford grand jury brought a second charge of object sexual penetration on Tuesday.

Shell, an author of photography books and the editor-at-large for Shutterbug magazine, is known for his nude photography. He was being held without bond in the New River Valley Regional Jail. Franklin, who modeled under the name Chloe Jennings, died from an apparent drug overdose June 3 at Shell's studio in the 200 block of West Main Street, Funk said. The official cause of death is still being determined by the medical examiner's office, Funk said.
