Hello and thanks for checking out my profile! I am a fairly new photographer looking to build his portfolio. I have been taking pictures, doing art and working with graphic design nearly all of my life. I have had fun doing various photo manipulation with Photoshop for the last 5 or so years and always considered photography something I enjoyed and appreciated, but only within the last 6 months did I decide to become more serious about it and actively arrange shoots and build a portfolio. Right now I am mainly looking for TFCD. Not only am I constantly wanting to expand my portfolio, but I am willing to help models do the same, so trade shoots are ideal.

If you have some cool ideas for a shoot and would like to discuss them then feel free to drop me a line. I would be willing to travel some if given enough notice. I always prefer on-location shooting. Studio photos are nice, but I honestly can't stand textured backdrops and think that on-location fills out the photo and provides a rich environment to support the theme of the shoot. I like standard portrait and glamor shots, but I especially love fun shoots with wild makeup, rich environments, and crazy facial expressions.

If you are a model looking to expand your portfolio then don't hesitate to send me a message. I enjoy discussing ideas and am sure we can work something out. I am constantly looking for MUAs as well, so if you do makeup then please get in touch.
