Thanks for checking my profile. Why am I here? Well...I want to collaborate with beautiful talented signed agency (or agency quality) models, make-up artists, fashion stylists, and hair stylists. Always open to expanding my portfolio with high fashion, editorial, beauty and portrait images. Think Flair, V, Surface or W magazines for inspiration. I normally do trades/tests on the weekends or in the evenings. And, I'm not here to collect as many "friends" as possible for the sake of it, but want to network with others of a like mind and vision, so If I don't reply or accept every request, don't be offended.
Check out my other profile (MM #1246338) to see some of my art nude work.
Testing Policy
No Flakes!!!!!!!!!!
Please be on time to the shoot, and if for some reason you're not, pick up the phone. Everyone on board is giving their time, so let's all be professional. I'll need a contact number from you to begin setting the shoot up, and confirmation at least 2 days before in order for the shoot to happen.
For the final shots, I typically pick the best 1-2 images from each look to retouch. So you'll get anywhere from 3-5 final retouched shots of my choice. This is my standard policy unless alternate arrangements have been made prior to the shoot. PLUS...why would you want to have more than that in your portfolio from the same session anyway?
It'll take me up to 3 weeks to provide you with the final retouched shots. PLEASE NOTE, I don't give out discs of every shot taken, and I don't hand out un-retouched images either for you to do your own retouching. Thanks for understanding y'all.
Non-agency models will need to sign my standard model release.
I'm starting to limit my trade shoots, so I can't agree to shoot with everyone, but...my portfolio building rates are very reasonable. So contact me for more info.
Escorts
I don't forbid them, but definitely prefer you don't bring them (they ruin the flow...yours and mine). If you feel you must, must, must bring one (no boyfriends though)...they will be put to work. You can check my references with any of the girls i've shot. That said, i'm not looking to date you, i've got a wife, a 4 year old kid, and another on the way (yep yep!). Just like to create beautiful pictures of beautiful women, that's all!
Ciao!
