__Personal Info__
My name is Ryan D'Alessandro, and I am currently a senior Graphic Design major and Photography minor at Coastal Carolina University.
I have many artistic avenues, but for this site I aim to mainly focus on the photography aspect. I have photomanipulation experience that can be incorporated for certain themed shoots that would require it, but I would prefer to not heavily rely on it.
__Model Photography Info__
I am willing to schedule TF shoots with local models in order to build up my portfolio and the model's portfolio.
I am open to any concepts for a photo shoot that can be executed feasibly and believably. I am perfectly fine with models having tattoos, piercings, etc. as long as they do not detract from the concept of the interested theme for the shoot. There may be cases where I can photoshop out such markings, if needed and/or desired.
As of February 2011, I have my own lighting equipment to use for shoots. I am researching/studying on how to use it, and hope to have some examples of my work using the equipment soon. Models willing to help me learn lighting situations and techniques (and in turn learn themselves) would be greatly appreciated.
By going to
www.Lord-of-Lost-Souls.deviantART.com, you can find the artwork that I do outside of model photography, and hopefully get an idea of how I see and approach art.
FYI, most of my photographs in my portfolio will contain a watermark and signature because I submit them this way on DeviantART.com. I hope to design a standard watermark for myself soon that applies to any and all locations my work is being displayed.
More info when I have time to add.
