"Art, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder, 'I know what I like' is a legitimate comment." - Dave Scott
"She sat looking... looking at me with those eyes... eyes that were deeper than the depths of human experience... eyes that could see inside me... to the part of me that I cherished the most, and most wanted to keep hidden, guarded, protected." Dave Scott
I’m an independent photographer in southeast Missouri with many years of experience. I have a studio and equipment, as well as the desire and ability to produce great photographs.
As a way to help aspiring models, I will do portfolio shoots for a small fee. The shoot can be done in my studio, but I am willing to travel within reason for the shoot or further with compensation. My studio is on a picturesque farm with many settings available for outside shots.
TFP is possible for models who I feel will make a positive contribution to my portfolio and my art.
My photography has opened an exciting world for me. Hopefully, it can do the same for you.
Feel free to email me at DaveScottPhoto@hotmail.com.
IDEAS I'D LOVE TO SHOOT:
*Artistic - I love the art of the human body.
*Available Light - I want to experiment more with the sunlight streaming through a window, with candlelight, and shooting beside a fire.
*Construction - I have some construction-type helmets, gloves, safety vests, a flashing light, signs, etc. that I think would make a really cool shoot, especially if we could do it at night.
*Couples - Ive done some couples shoots in the past and love the way they turned out. I have lots of ideas!
*Fantasy - I have a fairy costume that's never been used. Five of the phots in my port were taken at an spooky, old, abandoned building that I have permission to shoot in. I've thought of doing something vampire themed there. I have some ideas for a sexy vampire/couple shoot I'd like to try.
*Light Painting - I want to experiment more with sparklers and try some work with flashlights or lightsticks.
*Lingerie - Got any sexy lingerie you'd like your photo taken in?
*Native American - I have some very un-authentic Native American garb and would really like to do a shoot with the Native American theme. I would absolutely love it if a Native American and/or someone with some authentic outfits would help me do the shoot. ** I just bought several rabbit skins that were dyed to look like young bobcat skins (with spots). I think we could make a very sexy native costume using them if you're interested.
*Outdoors - I live on a farm out in a rural area where there are LOTS of great shooting sites.
*Pinup - I'd love to try some pinup shots. I've been thinking of doing one with the model bursting out of a giftwrapped box full of packing peanuts.
*Tattoos - I don't have any tattoos myself but am impressed with some of the artwork. If you have good tattoos, I'd love to get some pix to put on my website.
*Water - I have some great water sites - waterfalls, creeks, secluded "swimmin' holes", etc.
*Your Ideas - Feel free to discuss your ideas with me. I'm pretty easy going and, who knows, you may get your dream shoot!
