Photography has been a really cool journey for me. I have met some extremely Talented, models and fellow photographers along the way and I am certain I will meet many more.
Now for the warm and fuzzy stuff: I understand the frustration many models go through trying to find a photographer to build their portfolio, to increase the possibility of landing the next gig. It's a tough and competitive choice for a profession. I used to model in the Seattle area way back when , a long, long time ago in what now seems to be a galaxy far far away. After working with many photographers who were good at what they did technically but failed at personality and giving directions. I decided that I would give photography a shot ( no pun intended ) since my background was in art.
Once I picked up a camera I never looked back and after many years of discovery and finding my style, I decided to build my own studio and still I have never looked back and have a clientele base that affords me the opportunity to continue to do what I love best.
NOW for the real stuff: If you like my work, it makes me smile. If it doesn't do anything for ya, I still smile anyway.
If you want to collaborate on creative images that will fulfill both of our needs, I'm all for it and will help in any way that I can but I am very selective about who I ultimately want to work with, as you should be also. Contrary to what you see, nudes aren't the only thing I do.
I, as well as many others feel, that there is nothing more beautiful than the nude figure.
Most of the photographers and models I have met and worked with are artist at heart and in their creative deeds and endeavors as well.
I choose not to collaborate with capitalist but rather with artist.
If I contact you its because I have seen something breathtaking and stunning about your look. If you just want a hired gun my rates for models are reasonable.
I collaborate with models on a TFCD basis just for the sake of being mutually creative. I'm kind hearted, I have a nice warm smile, I'm more than fair, easy going soooo with that being said please be mindful of the following
I will not take advantage of you and I expect the same from you.
My life guidelines are are simple:
Have fun while we work hard.
Punctuality
No shows...the only excuse is if you were abducted by Aliens or won the lottery.
We all have something to offer.
Be civil
This is not a dating service
Be trustworthy
Creativity is a must
Give it your best shot ( no pun intended )
Don't Touch My Cameras or my equipment.
Bring a companion if you wish, there is a waiting room where they can watch a movie or read a book.
Don't come to the studio if you are FUBAR or almost close to it.
Special Thanks to Becka Marr, Elle, Abby, Autum,Venus, Beth, Danielle, Drew, Sandi, Lynn, Jen, Bryn, Courtney and too many more to name.
There are a lot of wonderful and really cool people on this site and it has been a true pleasure to have met and talked with the ones I have.
I'm not vain...what you see here and on my sites is what I do.
If my images and works do not speak for themselves then it really doesn't matter
