I am a 38 year old Fine Art Photographer looking to network with Models, Designers, Hair Stylists and MUA's. I love to create artistic creative images and believe that the right lighting is everything. It separates the standard from the superb.
I have been an artist from a young age and have been doing Photography for 10 years. I am a full time professional photographer and use the best of equipment. Photography is not a part time hobby; that being said TF shoots are rare and usually initiated by me. Please send me a message and we can work with your budget.
Note: I get friend requests daily; all the people in my friends list I know personally or would like to work with. I'm not into building a huge friends list because the first thing I do when needing someone for a shoot is to look through my friends list for local people. If you are not local and send a friend request without a message, it will most likely be ignored.
If you are local and send a friend request and I do not add you, please do not take it personally, you just may not have the look I need. That does not mean we cannot work together (just dont expect me to work for free.)
Models; Let me help you create very strong images for your portfolio.
Designers; I want to photograph your new work for catalogs or the web.
Hair Stylists; I want to create art with your work
MUAs; If you desire a certain concept shoot you would like to add to your portfolio let me know.
You can contact me here or at jds_photography@yahoo.com

I also have Family in: Binghamton NY, Pittsburgh PA, Baltimore MD, Los Angeles CA & Portland OR
Below is part of an email from a Model I recently worked with:
Jason
You were the photographer that every art model prays for: you were
nothing less than respectful, professional, and driven for the work at
hand. You were excited about the work we were doing in such a way that
inspired me to see beyond my own perception and brought out the very
best model that I can be. I have worked with literally 100's of photographers in my 7+ years of experience and so few have the understanding of light AND the ability to control it as you do! In truth, you may be among the top three (certainly the top five) most talented photographers in all of my career-- I believe that the community needs you because you bring so much credibility to what others can only conceive of doing.
Sincerely,
Melissa
This is part of an email I just received from a Hair/MUA that has been in business for 18 years:
I really like your work. I especially like how you light your
models, how every picture's composition makes sense and your finished images
look flawless without looking photoshopped.Beautiful work! - Janeen
This note was received about a portrait I did for Frank's web-site.
THANK YOU JASON FOR THE PICTURE ITS A MILLION DOLLAR SHOT IT WAS NICE MEETING YOU SEE YOU AT THE NEXT VIDEO SHOOT
