I'm interested in venues to show different aspects of my work -- from G to R rated and beyond (I'm just as interested in generating commissions as sales). Contact me if you're interested in having my work at your gallery/coffee shop/restaurant, or if you'd like to be in some of those wall hangings.
STAFF photographer and writer, LivGREEN magazine.
CHECK OUT my photography column in Minnesota Bride magazine.
My photography tends to be more artistic or documentary than Maxim-slick. I look for the aesthetics of what's in a picture (and maybe help it along a bit). I have a studio in Minneapolis, and I also love to shoot on location.
I'm very interested right now in exploring how the interaction between light and shadow affects the mood and message of an image.
I do mostly paid work -- models' and actors' headshots and portfolio development, weddings and events, editorial and annual reports, product shots, images for businesses, and photoassisting. ("Paid" includes barter work -- I've traded my photography for auto repair, studio lighting, a catered party, massage therapy, hand-painted clothing, computer repair, magazine advertising, carpet cleaning, house painting, ... and of course, modeling.)
I do a limited amount of TF* work to help select models and actors with their ports. You don't have to be super-experienced, 18 or gorgeous -- but it helps if you have an open mind, a shared vision, and/or some creative ideas of your own.
Editors: I'm a skilled journalist -- for national and local magazines, newspapers, trades, and electronic pubs. Contact me just for photos or for a complete editorial/photo package.

Your work is lovely! I think if I'm covered up with poses/shadowing it's fine. I think aerolas are off limits if you're a female in my family. :-p
Is that bad?

It was meant in a good way. It's non-offensive because a lot of nude work can be vulgar. Yours is not! It's done tastefully.
