About me
::: Introduction :::
Hello all and welcome to my MM profile! I started in photography several years back and have mainly done coverage of automotive show and race events. Now I am doing more shoots with models and mixing that in with the automotive industry work to further my portfolio and build my experiences.
I am also a prof. freelance web and graphic designer so I often have shoots to satisfy the needs of projects. These include shoots for promotional media such as flyer's and brochures as well as web and mass email advertisements.
::: Remember Who's Hiring Who :::
Please don't contact me and assume that I'll work for free, worse please don't contact me telling me you want me to shoot your idea and that you want me to pay you to do it. I will do TF work from time to time, if this is what you're interested in please message me with your concept and we can go from there.
::: Shooting Locations :::
I like to shoot in unique locations such as abandoned warehouses, lofts, outdoors and nature locations like a nice waterfall or a tall grass open field, club and nightlife locations and I love to do shoots with great cars. I will also be up for location suggestions, if there is a place you have been wanting to shoot for a certain theme.
::: Model Release :::
For paid shoots I do require a release be signed. I am open to working out arrangements to provide copies of several shots to the model on these shoots but please do not expect that I will give you copies of all shots [edited, hi-res, or otherwise].
::: Shoot Confirmation :::
If I do not hear from you in the days leading up to a shoot then I will take that to be a cancelation of a shoot. I will not reschedule unless there was good reason. All shoots need to be confirmed no less than 3 days prior to the shoot, after that time if something comes up I need to know ASAP. I provide my cell number to call or text and email to models when booking, as well I can get messages here giving 4 total methods of contacting me.
If I have a shoot with you and you all the sudden stop replying to messages I'll give it a few attempts (3 max) and then I will write off the shoot and find someone else. Remember MM shows when messages have been sent, read and when a person was last online so there is no real excuse after several attempts with no response.
::: Shoots w/ Cars & Bikes :::
I often shoot with a range of vehicles including show cars, exotic cars, rat rods and hot rods as well as bikes of all kinds. In most cases these shoots are planned outdoors and as such are dependent on weather conditions. There have been occasions where the weather has caused shooting times to be rearranged or rescheduled. On occasions when the shoot is indoors it is also possible for it to be affected by weather due to the vehicle - many owners do not like to bring some of these cars out in the rain even to an indoor location, in some cases these cars have no roofs, windows or wipers and simply cannot make that trip.
The other part of this is that these shoots are coordinated with 3, and in some cases 4 separate parties [model, car owner, location owner and myself] and if something comes up with one it can affect the shoot. I work very hard to make sure that the scheduled shoots is a date that works best for all involved.
Credits
I try to update this list from time to time but it does not in any way include every model I have ever shot with. That said feel free to contact anyone on this list if you require a reference or two before a shoot.

Models I Will Not Work With or Recommend:
* I finally decided it's time to make a list of models I can't recommend shooting with or even scheduling a shoot with. These are just my opinions and experiences for what it's worth.
Sophie81287: #2850543
- This began with her responding to a casting call I posted. After setting up a first shoot with her, she disappeared and I did not hear from her until the day of the shoot. She cited personal issues, admitted to unprofessional behavior and apologized. We then rescheduled the shoot for a date and time of her choosing. Same thing happened again. At this point I never even received an explanation, and both the tag on her page of me trying to confirm the shoot and the one asking for an explanation were removed. Very unprofessional behavior - schedule at your own risk.
