Hello. I'm Karl.
I guess I'm best described as an editorial photographer.. mostly experimental / hard light work. I work in fashion and in a movement that's loosely described as artcore.. which is kind of blunt, matter of fact, sometimes kind of erotic, sometimes candid.. always loose. I'm here for testing and the occasional editorial submission. It's hard to put a body of work across here for me, as i'm mostly story driven and MM really doesn't lend itself to that at all.. so, please do take a look at my web site to get a much better feel for what i'm about..

I'm hard working and approachable - i also prefer to talk than type. As a general rule.. I don't charge or pay for the kind of work i'm interested in doing via the interwebs. If you'd like to shoot with me, then drop me a line..
I hope what i'm looking for in my models is fairly obvious from my body of work.. I only shoot fashion if i can publish it, or someone's paying me.. i.e. it's full team work with a model who can cut it for editorial publication. I generally work with agencies for fashion work, though i'm happy to put an independent team together if its right for everyone.
If you're not comfortable with nudity, please don't contact me to shoot. My sets aren't for the shrinking violet. Nothing will leave the studio outside of what has been specified, but I can't be doing with subjects concentrating on their breasts when i need you concentrating on my lens. I work in a fast and fluid way - the workflow is an important part of the finished product. If it's not for you then please don't ask me to shoot a different way to accommodate your sensibilities. I won't, unless you're paying, then I'm at your behest.
Other tan that.. no real rules.. if we're shooting anything but runway pieces, i'm looking for a face.. height and often body type not important.. if the package works, we're good to go.
