I DON'T PAY MODELS If you're expecting to get paid, unless I am getting paid too, please look elsewhere for a photographer. I don't work with people who feel it's alright to exploit the talents and skills of others simply to save a buck or do so under empty false promises of grandeur and "future paid work"

"Trade Work"
I define trade as
collaborations Meaning, I bring my talent and skills to the table and you bring your awesome face/body/poses/etc to the table. We meet somewhere in the middle and make magic. It's not a 1-sided deal. Please don't message me saying you want to shoot something "edgy" or any other abstract word. I need concrete details, such as a style, type of location/look/hair and/or makeup, before I will consider shooting. The more specific the better! I have a stellar team of makeup artists, hair stylists and others that I can trust and count on to deliver top level results.
I won't shoot you for free just because you can't afford my (very reasonable) rates.
ABLE TO SHOOT UNDERWATER! (ask for rates)
And a little bit about me
- I'm young (product of the 80's!)
- The world is my playground and California is currently my studio
- I love photography, and love even more when I can do it barefoot
- Normal is boring, I like to stand out - please stand with me
- I am big goof ball which always makes my shoots fun and laid back but I am serious about my work. I give 120% I expect the same out of everyone taking part.
- I love adventuring, and am very open to new ideas, hard to access locations and a new twists on old ideas.
- I do whatever it takes to get that "shot" which has been everything from being covered in mud; shooting in a t-shirt when the mercury drops below freezing or wearing jeans at 115 Fahrenheit (thank you Australia) to being waste deep in NYC garbage
I work until my hands HURT, and then I'll work a little more
- I have two adorable Cairn Terriers Toto and Ruby that love to be in photos and are available for shoots
(Only while in Connecticut though)
With a Bachelor of Science in Business with a focus on marketing, I offer a unique approach to things. I have the focus of a businessman with the heart of an artist and it has helped me in both worlds.
I'm never one to limit myself to anything, I have started to focus more on Fashion and Editorial now but I am always looking for that new interesting challenge to present itself. I'll do it all
- Couture/High Fashion
- Lifestyle/Street
- Weddings/Bridal/Engagement
- "Maxim/FHM" Glamour
- Fitness
- Art Nudes
My shot on the Fall 2008 Cover of Country Estates Magazine
I am incredibly friendly, very outgoing, full of energy and very open minded. I love working with people who love to be be creative. My only boundary is that of my clients imagination. I have a deep passion for what I do.
David Leslie, a great photographer and one who inspires me puts it best:
"There are photographers and there are 'photo-technicians'"
I am a
PHOTOGRAPHER
I shoot digital but started on film. Although I am young, when I first began pursuing photography, I learned from others who HAD to understand the aspects of photography to make a great shot. The majority of my work happens when I shoot it, not in post. I agree with the belief that when you become "self-satisfied" with your work, you've stopped growing. I will never say I know everything as I don't. As well, I am constantly growing and always learning new things which I apply to everything I shoot.
I love all and any feedback, and comments; though please have it be positive or constructive criticism.
I will gladly do TF* if the concept is unique. The
WILDER the idea the better the chances are that I'll be interested.
