About me
I'm back in L.A   

I'm Faze1!! I don't have a preference when it comes to different  styles of  shooting!! They say I need to specialize in something but, I want to do it all with no weakness. So, screw what they say!! For those of you that have worked with me know this is about business! I have a passion for what I do. I understand there are a lot of photographers that are in this for the wrong reasons. I can assure you that's not me. I have a regular job and own 3 other businesses that are doing very well. I may spend the rest of my life looking for that perfect shot so I'm trying to work with models who are serious. Please!!! If you are unsure about yourself or me just state that and from there I understand we can't do business. Never will I take honesty personal. You all have a right to do what your doing. Just understand I have goals and a family so when it comes to my photography I don't have time to play. If your ready to find that shot that could make you. Hit me up and lets see what we can do. Thank You, Faze 1 '' The man behind the camera is human just like you''!!!!!!

   VERY VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS!!!!!!!

Wolf's Model's Guide This is to help models understand why you will not get every picture taken by a self respecting photographer. Don't take anything personal because it's not. What is TFCD (time for CD)? from the Models Guide Basically the same as PFT, but the model receives digital images instead of prints. Increasingly popular for obvious reasons. Aspiring models often believe that it is really attractive to receive a large number of images immediately after the shoot. Think again! Only the very inexperienced or the extremely naïve assume that it is a seductive proposal by default. In a portfolio, you want quality, not quantity. It is not in your interest to receive a copy of every photograph taken. The photographer should take the time to edit the photos and only give you a selection of the best. You do not have the expertise to select the right images from a large collection. Digital or print, a good photograph requires work after it has been taken. If you are presented with a CD immediately after the shoot, the photographer has not had the time to do any post-production work on the images. No self-respecting photographer wants to release photos that are anything but perfect. From a large number of photographs taken during a shoot, only a few will meet the demanding criteria a photographer should impose on himself (or herself). Many photos from a shoot are just not good enough for a variety of reasons. If you are offered a copy of everything, you are working with a photographer who does not take pride in his or her work. Not a good idea!

  For all that don't understand the above, read below!!!!!

I do sit down and go through the images with all that's involved. I try to reach an agreement on whats to be used. TF you will not get anything the can't be corrected in post. Example foot turned over on it's side like your falling but your smile is cute, You blinked with one eye opened but your make up looks good, Your face is out of focus because you moved as I was taking the shot but your wardrobe looks nice. NO WAY. When picking up images please don't wait longer then two weeks. I'm on the next project by then.  I will upload images to your flash drive, external hard drives, CD or DVD. Time is money. You get what you pay for so stop it with all the one way demands when we all are putting something in the pot. You be fare and I give as much as I can without being screwed. Hopefully you understand. If not then I understand we can't do business. I'll still love like a brother or sister! You can ask me anything and if I know I will tell except others business. Lol.;-) 

Special Thanks To  LOLLIPOP ARTISTRY'S mua and hairstylist. Highly recommended. My first shot to test the lights, took a look and fell out laughing!! I couldn't believe how good they were!! Their skills and knowledge of the arts are unmatched for a new corporation. Thanks again Ladies!
