Thanks for checking out my profile.
I'm a serious semi-pro photographer (not my primary job), who shoots for the love of the art of photography. I really enjoy meeting and working with new models, and giving them the best I can get out of a shoot. My one and only goal is to get that killer shot, the one that make the viewer, and the model say: "WOW!" I have a love of the classic pinup style, and I strive to achieve that look when I can.
With the economy the way it is, my resources have made it difficult to do anything other than limited TF/CD sessions, but I'd love to work with you if you need to update your portfolio. I offer modest fees for any portion of a shoot that involves topless or nude shots. I won't ask even a novice model to shoot nude for free. A TF/CD shoot need NOT include any nude work, but please consider it, if you feel comfortable with me during the shoot, and need some nude or semi nude shots for your portfolio. I encourage you to have an escort, I don't mind at all, as long as they don't interfere with the shoot, and you are comfortable working in front of them. I want you to be relaxed and comfortable, ready to project your best for the camera. I'm truely ONLY interested in taking beautiful pictures.
I'm very easy going, not pushy, and totally professional on a shoot. I'm primarily focusing on Pin-up, and Lingerie photography for my own portfolio, but, I'll work with you to add a wide variety of shots to build your portfolio, including headshots, casual, swimsuit, etc.. If I pay normal rates, I retain all the publishing rights. I would prefer to reach an agreement for TF/CD, or REDUCED modeling fees, then I will agree to share all the rights. Sound fair?
A word or two on TF/CD. If you offer your time and skills to me, I offer ALL of the shots from the shoot on CDs, edited, retouched, and cropped, NOT just a small number of the best photos. I will also give you fully shared publishing rights. You are free to use, or sell your photos, with no obligation to share anything you recieve with me. What I offer is my time, travel expenses, my photographic skills, and MANY hours of digital editing AFTER the shoot, trying to get the very best out of each shot. I think that's more than a fair trade for beginner models, with little or no experience. I'll do my very best to give you a ton of good shots to choose from.
I don't work out of a studio, and since models are scarce anywhere near me, I'm willing to travel a reasonable distance to you. All of my equipment is portable, I bring portable studio lighting and backdrops, and a variety of wardrobe items with me. I prefer to book 3 to 4 hours for a shoot, I shoot old school, tons of shots, instead of spending all my time setting up each pose. I like a more natural, spontaneous pace.
If you'd SERIOUSLY be interested in working with me, if you need a new perspective in your portfolio, something different, something fun and sexy, please send me an email, and we'll see if we can work out a day and time to get together for a session. I look forward to hearing from you.
