About me
I'm a designer|artist currently located in Dallas, TX (75/Lovers for you local folks). Technically what i do is called "photo-rotoscoping", which is in fact an animation technique. The base of the art is the photography. I then interpret the photo into an illustration via traditional methods (light box) or digital (new layer in Photoshop). The inking and coloring process are all digital. I'm not going to lie, i'm a tracer; though photo-rotoscoper sounds waaay cooler. Though illustrator also works.

I occasionally do some figure photography, though i mostly do street photography as a hobby. These i currently do with my little PowerShot. All of my other photography and snapshots can be found on my Flickr account listed below or through my main url http://www.vinhluanluu.com/

Commissions
I am currently available for commissions. I can create a unique pinup from your photograph in various formats ranging from 8x11 to 24x32, all ready to print. Commissions start at $75US (price is dependent on complication of props ie. fishnet, strawhats, etc). Payment will be through paypal. You'll get a print-ready file so you can print it whenever you want to. Email me at vinhluanluu@gmail.com or PM me here for details.

Note on Studio
I do not have a studio at all or even proper lights. I've been shooting in my apartment. Sadly, until i start making crazy Bradstreet level of money, this is how things are going to be. Honestly, for what i do, a decent mechanical pencil is way more important than professional photography equipment anyways. I just wanted to post an FYI.

Your work is tight. It is a pleasure to view it. I do hope you are able to connect the right dots and make some money off of it. More important, you seem to really enjoy your work. Let me know if you even need any source material, would love to collaborate .
Keep up the shooting (and illustration)!
