Ken Westermann

Greetings, friends!
I have a love for photography and working with others. I am always learning. I learn something new from each model, and each shoot. I enjoy both location and studio photography. I am a regular photographic contributor to SoFit and Solano Fitness Magazine.  I am always looking for Fitness models female or male to work with.
Personally, I love artistic Black and white, or "edgy" type lighting styles, and am looking to expand my Black and white portfolio. My goal is to make, you, the model look your very best in a comfortable, fun setting. I  enjoy working with models, photographers and MUA's who are willing to work and learn from one another. I am willing to compensate very experienced models only.  If you are new and are looking for trade work I will do selected trades if it will benefit the both of us. In the end, I want what is best for all parties.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME:

I do not claim to be a "Pro". I am humble about my ability and am very self critical. I am honest, hardworking, trustworthy, respectful and determined. I want things done right, and I love to learn. I will not take an assignment, I am not personally or technically comfortable with. As the model, I want you to be comfortable. I am open to escorts, so long as they are not overbearing or distracting to our work. I use professional photographic equipment, the latest Photoshop and a variety of professional editing software. I do all of my own editing and do my best to get photos to models in a reasonable amount of time. I ALWAYS grant models promotional rights to the images we create together unless otherwise specified first. I'm not here to make money, I'm here to network, learn, have fun, and help all parties succeed! I encourage positive and negative feedback from models.  Please feel free to contact any of the models whom I have worked for or with for their feedback. I can also provide you a list of references should you wish. Feel free to stop by my website to see more variety in my photography.

WHAT I EXPECT:

Communication is Key! We should, at minimum, talk on the phone to discuss concept, location, wardrobe, and other concerns. If we agree to a shoot, I expect for you to show up, or call, and let me know you can not make it. PLEASE DO NOT over represent your ability as a model. Your portfolio should be recent and should speak for itself. I'm not a snob, so I don't expect all models to be pros. I will expect you to sign a model release. We can discuss the type of release before our shoot. The most important thing is to have fun. When shooting, I encourage your ideas and input. Two minds working together are better than one.
