About me
Retired professional wedding/portrait photographer, located in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area seeking amateur models for artistic and tasteful work.

I like to work with models who may not have a lot of experiance, but wanting to give it a shot to see what they can make of it or to fullfill a long lingering model fantasy.

I believe there's no such thing as "imperfect" bodies, & I try to celebrate the beauty that all women have, regardless of their size & age.

I am not making my living working with models. It is more a hobby for me.  I don't mind shooting basic portraits, but would rather shoot glamour or pin up and artistic nudes with someone looking to create something they can be proud of. Part of why I'm on MM is to build up my own portfolio.
I can also enjoy working with mature (35-60 ish or over) women who are posing for the first time or realizing that true beauty doesn't end at 30 or that you have to be over 5' 8" tall and weigh less than 120 lbs. If your in this group please contact me. I would love to hear from you.

"Art" appeal means more to me than "sex" appeal. If you look at my work you'll see there isn't one style for all the images because each person is different. I will do my best to bring out the best in each of my subjects.

I work on a TFP / TFCD basis. I will help you with photos for your own portfolio or just for your own personal use. Possibly small fee paid for gas money. I desire to build my own portfolio featuring women of all ages and size.

I guess we'll have to shoot soon then because those are my favorite stockings!!

Honestly, I loved working with you, and aside from Julia, you're the only photographer I've talked to about shooting that actually followed through on those plans. Its nice to have finally found someone enthusiastic and also reliable.

Your work is so beautiful, love women who aren't ashamed of their size, but rather embrace their beauty!! It's inspiring, especially for me. When I was in High School, I asked my mom if I could go to a modelling event on Florida, and she told me I wasn't skinny enough. Total blow on my self confidence after all those years of my family telling me I was beautiful. When I told her size didn't matter in that particular event, and that there was even a plus sized event, she still insisted i would never be able to do it. I was a size 12, but I was too fat? Now I see how wrong she was.

Thank you for your nice compliments! I took a look at your portfolio and it is great! I especially like the 30's 40's era shots. My husband and I are about to start work on a separate portfolio for pin-up era shoots.

Thanks so much for the tag and the photo comment :D I really appreciate the compliments!

How far are you from Detroit? I may be going there in the future for a shoot. So, it may be possible to set something up depending on how far you are and if schedules allow.

Keep in touch!
