I am a Photographer who has worked mainly in commercial advertising in Richmond, VA for over 20 years. My work has taken me around most of the country but is mainly focused in the Central East coast region, which incompasses beauty product, packaging, magazine, billboard, catalog product, Fashion, jewelry, model/actor headshots/compcards, Food & Restauraunt shots, Corporate annual report imagery, & some journalistic style imagery.
In August 2004, Richmond was hit by a freak 100 year storm called "Gaston" from which I ended up loosing 95% of my entire prime portfolio, put at risk from flash flood waters and condemned by crappy business practice (law suit). From this devistation a weird baptism has risen, and I am looking to re-invent myself commercially towards the work I would love to have. The commercial work of the past and present is always appreciated and challenging, but over time it has left my book reflecting me only as a nice high end service, and has taken me away from the passion and art of it! I need to recapture my vision in my book, revive the artist behind the camera, and get back to the fun!
I can work in any format of film or digital photography, I have an old school background with leading edge capabilities who is very diverse in production. I can also provide high end retouching when needed or wanted.
Additional skills: Fine Arts background for drawing, painting, and sculpture - Carpentry/fabrication skills for sets & special effects, and experience in coordinating large productions.
I am open to talk to anyone about aything so feel free to ask, though on TFP/TFCD (which I have done a lot of) I only consider work with models who's looks and professional attitude will benefit my book. Since I am including a H&M stylist, prime locations, or environments in studio like a regular production shoot, there is a fare investment of my time and money, before, during, and after we shoot. Again feel free to ask about anything, if I haven't contacted you, I won't know you are out there, unless you say hey!
Thanks for the tag and compliment! Let me know if you're interested in working together.
