I can supply high end wardrobe for my clients so let me know what you need and I can put it into a package price for you.
Very little to no TF. Exceptions are made for the exceptional.
In the near future: Up State NY July-August, NYC, FL, CA and Vegas.

I love shadows! I have no definition! I will not be locked into a certain style or look so I shoot what inspires me and what inspires me to shoot. I spend a lot of time coming up with concepts for shoots so if you contact me and we agree to shoot know that if I do not get back to you right away with a date I have not forgotten you. I am simply waiting for the right concept to hit me.
A Zen poet once said, "A person who is a master in the art of living makes little distinction between their work and their play, their labor and their leisure, their mind and their body, their education and their recreation, their love and their religion. They Hardly know which is which and simply pursue their vision of excellence and grace, whatever they do, leaving others to decide whether they are working or playing. To them, they are always doing both."
Models, MUA’s, Hair Stylists, Wardrobe Stylists contact me if you are interested in working with me. Read below for more info.
To find projects that I am currently looking for models go to my casting calls section and please post your interest on the actual casting call.
Rates:
My rates for models are very inexpensive (almost laughable).
TFP: If you think you have a look that I can’t do without send me a message , check my casting calls or send me your idea. I am cutting way back on TFP but do consider all requests. If we do arrange a TF shoot a $50.00 deposit needs to be made by the model which is refunded in it's entirety when you arrive for the shoot. For no-shows the deposit will not be refunded and can not be used for a reschedule unless 48hrs notice was given prior to the scheduled shoot. Models I have shot with before are indeed exempt from this deposit.
If contacting me for TFP:
-Have a detailed description of what you are trying to accomplish.
-Wardrobe (if you have pictures send them) description.
-MUA’s and Stylists that are on board and willing to work on your
project.
-Location ideas or if Studio say so.
-Know that you will not get a CD of all the images.
Paid work: I do not pay models normally but there is an exception to every rule. If paid you can expect to sign a release, no images given to you, and no rights for use (unless I give you a signed document). You can use the low-res files I may post in my port (if you copy them) if I indeed post any.
Escorts: I do not allow escorts on the shoot (for many reasons)
- you will be with a crew of people (if you don't feel safe there,
then you will feel safe nowhere but in you own home)
-I want all my models/crew to feel comfortable, safe and secure
..so having an escort walking around compromises that.
-the obvious.... I need all of your attention on the task at hand.
Exception to every rule : if it turns out that you and I are shooting alone (no stylists) then I may consider an escort but not a BF or GF just a friend that is comfortable waiting somewhere outside of the set.
Additionally:
I do not shoot with minors unless they are represented by an agency or I have spoken to their parents (which must attend) and feel that it would be beneficial.
I will retain the copyrights to all images unless otherwise specified in writing.
I will give you credit on MM under the image and expect you to do the same.
It seems to just make sense but there are always a few that don't so.. I don't!
It is not my goal to see you naked. If you would like nude images it will be up to you to ask for them. I may ask for implied shots for certain projects and that would be discussed before hand.
I expect people to show up and show up on time, to work hard and stay focused, to have fun and make great images. So if you are “a model” that has no experience and has no idea what to do in front of a camera you need to tell me. We can still work together but it will take more time to shoot and I would have expected you to be
practicing in front of a mirror and getting to know your face/body.
Feel free to contact anyone in my port for references
