I'm a published fine art photographer looking for extraordinary people. I'm interested in timeless unusual looks, .... such as natural red heads, very pale skin, lots of freckles, ..... anything I can take and push further with the images . I treat my pictures like paintings and want people who can blend into that mindscape.
I am not looking for 'alternative' models, fetish, bright dyed hair, piercings / tattoos or glamour girls, this mood is not relevant to my work thank you.

** I am rarely on this website and have very little interaction with it. It is better to contact me via my facebook page or website. I'm currently purely working on my 2.5 year long series 'WONDERLAND' UNTIL 2012. It will end as a book and an exhibition. The project has been has been blogged around the world, and featured in many magazines. Please do not contact me to do separate work, I'm afraid I do not have the time to do it. Everything is explained on my website regarding the project if you want to learn more about it
So.......
Basically I am especially focused on creating elaborate sets, often using equally beautiful / strange clothes and props which I make myself, or source. My shoots are not always easy and are almost always outdoors - but I like to think I produce some very unique results. I do all my own research, art direction, and styling / fashion design myself - I work as an artist not a photographer, and creating the whole image is vital to what I do.
My background is fine art photography and I am looking for the exceptional. I'm extremely easy to work with and like to be relaxed and laugh when things go wrong. I see this as a creative journey, and I'm looking for exciting, artistic people to work with. I've made some very special friends through MM which was unexpected and wonderful. I need models who will throw themselves into the ideas, and embrace the concepts...... no divas, my shoots can be cold, wet, messy and the concepts can be pretty unusual.
IMPORTANT**
I do not take photos of other peoples ideas, projects or personal portfolios.
I do not shoot in studios.
I do not do commercial photography
I do not need any stylists, or wardrobe people
I'm terrible at replying on here, as I rarely use this website. Please contact me through my FB or my website
** I do however love doing what I do, and despite the grumpy list above, its just to try and reduce the hundreds of emails I get from people asking the same questions over and over again! We have a wonderful time producing the pictures and its all very humble and great fun, if you love art you'll fit right in. My website has a diary section that shows all the behind the scenes pictures from the shoots to give you a better idea of what its like.
