I'm Evan. 29. In early 2005 I transplanted myself into San Francisco's fertile soil, via southeast Michigan. Like most people, I moved to California for the opportunities (but I also hate winter). If you want to know more about me personally, I'm on MySpace:

and Facebok:

I like to shoot fashion-oriented shots, often with an unusual theme to them. I love to combine photography and illustration, as you'll see some examples of that here:
www.evanhaydenart.com/illustratedphotography
I love to shoot on location, or in studio. I worked for an art school's photography program for two years and solidified my knowledge of Profoto, Broncolor, Speedotron, and Norman strobe equipment. I own a Profoto 1200 with three heads and lots of accessories, and shoot with a Canon 30D. I took out a huge loan to buy these, and I intend to use them! (so help me out and model for me!)
One more thing, I can't necessarily guarantee an illustrated-photograph for your portfolio, as those take me many hours to make, but I can at least shoot some creative non-illustrated shots for your portfolio. (Bear in mind, if I have an illustrated-photo in mind that I think you would work well for, I'll definitely ask you for your help.)
So, if you want some really weird fashion shots in your modeling portfolio, hit me up! (I can do formal stuff too, if you're into that kind of thing).
RATES: Reasonable, and depends on the shoot. I will sometimes do TFP if the shoot's of a style that my portfolio is in need of or if it's for my fine art work.
MUA, HAIR: Not all of my shoots require a MUA (especially the illustrated-photography, since I do a lot of the makeup digitally), but I am always looking for a good stylist for high-fashion shots. (TFP/TFCD only at the moment, please)
WARDROBE: I'm looking for a good wardrobe person, so if you're that person, get a hold of me! I have a particular shoot I'm planning to submit for a fashion magazine that I've worked with in the past, but I need certain brands...
I also make clothing sometimes. In fact, most of the clothing you see in my pics are by me. Sometimes I like to make a transient outfit just for the shoot at hand. So models, if we shoot together, I might want to suit you up in my gear.
ESCORTS: I'm cool with escorts on shoots as long as they are not of the "always in the way of the shoot" variety.
FLAKES: ...need not apply. If you want to be a professional, you have to act like a professional. I have very little free time, so I can't afford to have it wasted. I've sort of turned into a "one strike, you're out" person on this, unless you have a reaaaaally good excuse.
THEMES I ESPECIALLY LIKE:
* surreal situations
* anthropomorphic machines (machines coming to life, taking on human characteristics)
* horror
* automotive-themed (I love cars, actually, and love using them as props)
* sci-fi type stuff (more cyber punk, really)
* lasers!!
* vivid color & eye-shattering patterns
* avant-garde makeup and outfits
* post-apocalyptic
* 60's or 70's-style retro shots
* anything STRANGE.
* I have more specific ideas - a long list of them - but would rather not post them all here yet... Just message me!
THINGS I CAN HELP YOU WITH:
* fine art photography (illustrated-photography my specialty)
* high-fashion (I need more of this in my portfolio!)
* automotive photography, with or without a model. (tuners, classics, avant-garde, etc!)
* head shots & body shots for actor's porfolios
* product photography (currently small-medium scale, unless we use a good studio)
* pin-up, fetish, swimwear, nude
* photography for album packaging, flyers, etc
* much more, just ask me!
