Hello,
I am an award-winning photographer currently residing in the Chattanooga area of the beautiful State of Tennessee. And man, do I love to shoot!

With a developing "eye" and a more discerning nature born over the years of shooting, my photographs reflect a maturing understanding of the delicate relationship between subject and photographer. Each photograph is unique and represents a symbiotic "give-and-take" between the two. The subject gives of themselves and the photographer is compelled to capture, for all eternity, the exchange. That instant, that millisecond, is captured and with it all the sights, sounds, smells, and memories that draw us to that place again and again.

Good photographs are visceral and need no explanation they should move or compel us in some fashion, perhaps even to action.  It is my desire to capture both the essence of the moment and the personality of the subject in each of my shots.
 
I especially enjoy working with models that are serious about their craft, whether they are new to modeling or a seasoned pro. They should be professional (on time, no attitude, love what they do, sober etc.) and should expect the same from me. 

I have a heart for assisting new models with portfolio development and, to that end, I am open to do TFP/TFCD on a limited basis with select models. Shoot me an email and we can discuss this option.

As I am fairly new to MM, my portfolio on this site is still being developed - stop back often to see the updates. Thanks for stopping by and checking me out...

Scott
