Send me a like if you dig my work.

have been a professional photographer for 4 years.
I trained in a high end studio for 2 years prior. I was taught in natural light/ambient light and off camera flash.
I learned professional retouching by doing it the hard way: teaching myself.
I have a very specific style and look I like to go for, but I'm always teaching myself new techniques or coming up with new ideas. I'm never "done". I'm constantly evolving.

All of my work is photographed and edited by me.
Depending on the project the editing process can take anywhere from 4 to 12 hours.
I never spend less than 4 hours on a picture, composites generally take longer.

My focus is on:
Cosplay, Conceptual Photography, Horror, and I like to bring my imagination to Fashion as well as Portraiture.
I can do everything from traditional senior portraits, to newborns, to weddings, to events like plays and sporting events.

I place no limits on the type of models I work with.
Male, female, anything in between. I've photographed gay and lesbian couples, transgender individuals, etc.
Any race, background, religion, social standing, experience, it doesn't matter to me.
All that matters is that you can fit the concept of the shoot.
I'm extremely easy to work with and very laid back.

In November I ceased doing Trade shoots due to the notion of them being abused and models not promoting or sharing work like they promised (or removing logos and watermarks). The only time I've offered a trade since is if the concept is my own and I need a model to fit it (see: the picture of Kenneth in the shower, I had an idea, and I needed a male model so I found one).
It's not to say TFP isn't out of the question, but my work method is so precise and tasking it's impossible to offer it all for free anymore.

If you're looking for a unique eye, and one of a kind photography experience you won't find anywhere else, shoot me a message. Better yet find me on Facebook, that's where I do 99 percent of my dealings online.

The Business Side:
The model must sign a release prior to the shoot.
Any pictures shared on social media must bear my stamp/logo.
Full size un-stamped prints will be made available to the model for their personal portfolio.
If the model wishes any pictures to be published; as the photographer I must okay the submission and receive photographer credit.
Likewise if I were to publish any photos the model would receive the same credit.
