After moving to Boston I decided to take my friend's advice about getting in front of the camera. I thought I'd unleash my creativity and do some modeling on the side. I've had a lot of support from the people around me who continue to encourage me to get in front of the camera and I'm starting to take their advice more seriously.
I'm currently working in the finance world, but love to do shoots as a part time outlet for creativity. I have an attraction to Interview and GQ style fashion shoots, but am also interested in artistic / creative (not that fashion shoots aren't creative) themes as well. I appreciate being given a certain direction - especially when the photographer desires specific results. While I appreciate the ability to "express" myself in front of the camera, I value a little constructive criticism now and then. Also, I'm still in the process of formulating a decent portfolio - something I can hand to the major modeling agencies in the area.
I appreciate decent compensation as much as any one else.
I'm a humanitarian, an intellectual, a musician, a liberal, and a sarcastic SOB.
SO. If you're a model looking for a strapping lad to pair up with, an art major in need of models for that over-due b/w shoot, or a professional photographer who's bored working with people who know what they're doing; I'm your guy. Sort of.
