About me
not sure what happened, but i completely lost everything on my home page.  no idea how to get it back...  anyway, i know it's kinda long-winded, but please read my entire page before sending me a friend request or inquiring about a shoot.

bottom line, i am here to make art.  i am not here to make money.  therefore, I DO NOT PAY MODELS.  nor do i have a studio.  in fact, i prefer to shoot on-location, using only the available, natural light.  and i only work with open-minded, creative individuals.

my work is organic.  it's not about fashion.  it's definitely not about clothes.  it's about capturing beauty and harnessing the energy of a moment.  i fall in love with beautiful faces, every single day.  i usually consider things like makeup a distraction.

my motivation is simple:  to show you what i see...   i'll keep doing this as long as there is beauty out there to inspire me.  and i tend to find beauty in places other may not.

btw, nothing turns me off more than someone who assumes that his/her time is more valuable than mine.  if you message me about your reasonable rates, i will delete and block you.

i'm an artist, but also a professional.  and i conduct myself as such.  you're expected to do the same.  i'm more than happy to work with independent and freelance models, as well as models represented by LEGITIMATE agencies (factor, ford, bmg), on all levels and styles of work.  i'll even work with beginners, if you are professional and responsible.  but please don't ask me to contact your "manager" (especially if he's your boyfriend) for a trade shoot.  unless i'm getting paid, i'll assume this is a collaboration between artists and i insist on dealing strictly and directly with the "talent."

your comfort and security are important to me and i encourage all models to bring a FEMALE escort when we shoot together for the first time.  you cannot bring your boyfriend to the shoot.  i'm just not willing to put up with the potential drama and it's just unprofessional.  sorry.  please check out my blog, to read my escort policy... (and feel free to leave comments.)

http://myescortpolicy.blogspot.com/


also, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ANY & ALL MODELS I'VE WORKED WITH FOR REFERENCES.  that's why i provide links on every image.

terms and conditions are always negotiable, but i require a release form for all trade shoots.  no exceptions.  if you are a minor (under 18 years of age at time of shoot), i require a signed parental consent form.

i'm always ridiculously busy, but i attempt to be flexible and accommodating.  my focus is currently on artistic nude work, but i don't just shoot nudity for the hell of it.  i'm open to most other creative ideas and concepts.  i might even be willing to take on some of your projects, if you'll work with me on mine.  however, please don't ask me to shoot zombie, gore or anything involving gratuitous violence, blood, cruelty, or real fur.  it's just not my thing...

any other questions, just ask.
