The Noir Suite OR Fashion Nude Project. Examples in portfolio now!!!
(the black and whites in the second row of my port.)
inspired by film noir and the music of "the raveonettes."
This is an ongoing project, if interested feel free to contact me at any time. Compensation for this project will only include a cd of all the work shot. Please check out my pics for examples of the project. I will need you to bring your own "underthingies" if you don't mind and you will need to do your own make up. It'll be very light makeup as I'm trying to make these shots as natural as possible on the faces... unless you know how to do a "smoky eye" then we could do that.
THE WORK SHOT WILL ONLY REQUIRE A TOPLESS MODEL. this project is not about sex, it's about sensuality, power, and rock and roll.
here's a checklist of things to bring if you have them:
1. black underwear. (ex. lacy, sexy, alluring, all black.)
2. black stockings. (ex. they could be any length from knee high, to thigh high, etc.)
3. black stillettos. (ex. the higher the better but no, i repeat, no platform heels. it looks a little stripperish.)
4. any black jewelry you may have.
5. anything else shiny and black you may have to wear that we can work with.
6. your sensuality.
7. a well rested, very sexy you.
This is a great opportunity for you to get some great photos in your book and be part of a project with one of new york's leading young shooters. Agencies will adore these pictures, trust me.
thanks! reply by sending me a message with "Fashion Nude Project" in your subject line.

Be interviewed!!
I'm hosting a video magazine where I deliver the "new" and "cool" while interviewing nyc's hottest artists, coolest musicians, most innovative scientists, prettiest models and more.
The show covers everything from new technologies to pop culture shedding light on the more interesting side of our ever changing and developing little globe.
The videos will be syndicated on several sites throughout the web. (example: youlikewelike.com in LONDON). There's plenty of room for exposure as my audience, and interest in syndication, keeps growing daily.
Check out the current season here:

(Once on youtube, please subscribe to our channel, which is free!!, to be updated the minute a new episode is uploaded.)
Models, i'm currently booking for season 2 so if you'd like to be interviewed or participate in anyway, send me a message here and I'll get back to you right away! All ideas and suggestions for episodes are welcome so let me know if you'd like to jump in front of the camera to have a chat about the biz!
I'm also looking to add "out of the studio" correspondents so if you seem to have a natural "on camera" way about you, we can talk about getting you a re-occurring segment.

Paid Test.
I'm offering a low rate of $50 for a simple shoot with great results.
(clarification: my services = $50.) Please include "$50 shoot" in your subject line if you email me so that I may more effectively track all of you. This offer is for both men and women. Thanks.
The session will be on a weekend (some weekdays) for an hour or so which will translate to about 75-100 photos. You will leave the shoot with a CD of everything shot in hand. Simple but effective, selling the model not the clothes. I would prefer if you bring or come in jeans, a tank top, and heels but you may bring some changes of clothes should you want something different. You must come in very light and natural makeup, which you will be applying yourself.
You will be your own makeup and stylist for these shoots in order to keep the rate this low. Due to a high number of past "day of" cancellations, a non-refundable $30 deposit is required to book your shoot and must be paid in advance. The remainder of the bill must be paid the day of the shoot. Serious inquiries only.
examples of past shoots below:
