Update:
My availability is very limited due to my work schedule, which is why I haven't done many shoots lately. Basically my free days (if they are indeed free) are Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I apologize for any inconvenience.

This is an issue that comes up quite often so I will say this upfront: I will not do nudity. I understand the female body is a wonderful thing to be photographed, and I have a full back piece, but unfortunately I work where I deal with the public, by the thousands, where I get more than enough unwanted attention as it is. The last thing I need is people I don't know to come up to me and say "I saw you naked!" So in order to keep my sanity and my life and work easier, I cannot do nude photos. I will, however, give artistic partial implied nudity a small consideration, but I'm much more comfortable with my clothes on.

For me clothing itself is art, and I'm much more interested in seeing how cloth drapes over the body and gives its own shape and how a photograph captures texture than just plain skin itself. I realize this limits my choice of photographers and that is unfortunate but necessary. There are many photographers I would love to work with but never will because they require nudity. It's really too bad.

I am looking for complex images that create a story, so I will most likely shrug off plain fashion photos. A great outdoor location, a complex set with various props, a simple outfit with interesting details, unique lighting, something that captures my personality. As an artist myself, these are things I am interested in.

A nightclub security by night, asleep by day, some creative energy in between.

I have a full back tattoo and full sleeves on both arms, all of which is an elaborate collage using Salvador Dali images and motifs.
