I have been spending a lot of time doing film projects so if you are interested in film work ( acting, crew, writer, etc ) contact me here or go to my film site

I have been practicing photography ( note I didnt say I was a photographer. That to me implies I do this for a living, which I do not ) for 4 years. I have worked in some crazy environments, learned from unconventional people, learned from my mistakes, and stepped away because of the insanity of it all. I have photographed live events, fashion, model portfolios, band cover art, pinup, you name it, I have probably done it, but none of it satisfies me like doing the art projects I do for myself. I don't need to expand my portfolio, I don't need to work on projects that are "great opportunities" ( note #2: send me a message telling me it will be a great opportunity and its some club event will 99.9% guarantee I will decline ).

I will not dismiss TFP work if the project is cool. What does cool mean? Well check out my portfolio, my style and if you think it will go with the themes I have done, lets talk. I will never do any type of "event" for TFP. I know a lot of people that will or are way better at live events than me. Its not my thing.

Pick your photographer based on their skills. Just because they are good at one genre, does not mean they can do anything else. No way would I do weddings or family portraits and don't think I can do them, because honestly I suck at it.
