My name is Amanda Melissa Avilez. I am a current student at Columbia College. I grew up here in Chicago. I have had experience with photography for over 5yrs. I am mostly interested in portraits. My work is done in Black & White film of Kodak & Ilford but I shot with different kind of film; the shoots are done with a 35mm camera that is a Nikon FM10 Camera. I have shoot with different kinds of medium cameras before when I attended to Marwen, an nonprofit school for kids and teens who cannot afford art lessons. I will be uploaded more of my work soon.
If you would like your pictures taken after you have reviewed my portfoilo, please let me know. And if you're a photographer yourself and is looking for an assistant, I would be more than happy to apply my services to you.
I am willing to shoot anything and anyone. If you have your own costumes such as Goth, Pin-Up, Burlesque, Alice, it doesn't matter, I am capable to do anything. I will put up model castings soon. I am looking forward to expand my talent with others, if you're a beginner, I can still shoot your pictures.
My charge isn't expensive, since it is film not digital, my charges depend on my time, film and the size of paper that will be used to print the photograph and there are times I do not charge but thats only if it is listed, which will be soon, I am a reasonable person.
I have more pictures of my work, however I hate to crop them to be seen because on ModelMayhem there is a set limitation, so I will upload my work on
http://s80.photobucket.com/albums/j174/amandaavilez/, this is my photobucket page with other pictures but not my work. In the Fall, I will gain experience in shooting with color and developing prints, so it wont be just black and white anymore, however I will always love black and white more. If you have any questions about pricing or shooting with me just message here or just email me which my my phone will alert me quicker, my email is amandaavilez87@gmail.com
Have a nice day!!! Hope to shoot with you guys soon!!!
