Think you might like to work with me? Please read through my bio below.



Lover of the offbeat, feminine, mysterious.
Hopelessly drawn to fragile beauty, erstwhile imagery and fine art nudes.
My interest in photography began in 1975.

All images in my portfolio have been styled by myself.
Almost all articles of clothing are from my personal collection.
Makeup and hair has been done by the model unless otherwise noted.
Having been asked on several occasions, no, I do not style the shoots of other site members.

Trade/TF? Shooting minimal and selective trade work.
Please go here for TF/Trade Shoot Guidelines Click the tab with the same name under the image.

Currently, I am trading for:
sensitive portraits
fashion - 5'9"-5'11" - possessing fashion stats and the right look.
Messages asking me if I have any 'ideas' will be referred to the above.

I look for models with a wide range of emotion, expression and posing ability; I ask that you bear this in mind if seeking to work with me on trade.

I do not provide hair and makeup artists on most TF shoots. Their participation is welcome but dependent upon the concept and is to be thoroughly discussed with me prior to the shoot.
A model's stats must be up to date if I am to pull wardrobe from my collection.

Should you have an chaperone policy, kindly advise me beforehand.
We shall discuss the required conduct of a non-team member on set.
My credit list is my reference list provided for you.

Please note:
I am the sole and exclusive copyright holder of my photographic artwork.
Images are edited/retouched by myself alone.
They are not to be altered in any way, shape or form.
