About me
I am a photographer in Ohio whose main focus is in the alternative scenes (Goth, Industrial, Fetish (light or heavy), BDSM, Cosplay, Gothic/Lolita, Steampunk, Anime, J-Rock and pretty much anything else that's alternative).
I am also an artist and figure model builder, and I love fashion designing.
I am a member of several Goth/Alternative yahoo groups and have met quite a few of you through there. Plus many I have worked with are already pouring onto this great new site as members themselves . So I look forward to meeting many more new friends now that I'm here:)
I like to shoot in both portrait style and a more artsy style.
Feel free to write if you have any questions or comments at any time. I would be happy to talk to any of you interested in my work:)
Thanks,
Kevin

What can I say; I love your work. I want to be part of it. I would be honored for you to do a shoot with me. We are about 2 1/2 hours apart. Maybe...just maybe we can eventually work it out.
