************************************************************
I own and manage a small design studio, Avid Creative, where I do commercial photography and design marketing tools for advertising (brochures, catalogs, billboards, product packaging, etc.) I also shoot stock photography for istockphoto and Getty Images. I am always looking for models who will work TFP and would be happy to help you expand or round out your portfolio. IF THERE IS A CERTAIN TYPE OF IMAGE YOU ARE LOOKING TO ADD TO YOUR PORTFOLIO, LET ME KNOW AND I WILL SEE WHAT I CAN DO. I enjoy shooting real (happy) people in a lifestyle setting, so if you want to bring friends, boyfriends, etc. with you it will help make the shoot a lot of fun. I always try to make the session natural and comfortable. I tend to shoot more commercial, lifestyle or conceptual stuff that is used for stock. I will ONLY discuss paid gigs once a solid relationship has been built. All TFP models must sign a model release and be willing to create stock photos. I do NOT photograph nudes or lingerie. I am a professional and and expect you to act professionally as well (ie: if you commit to being there, don't call at the last minute with a lame excuse). If you are interested in working together and have particular ideas, let me know.
I haven't uploaded any new images to my MM portfolio for several months nor do I intend to do so any time soon. Check out my blog for a whole lot more photos of recent shoots.

Oh, and please don't send me a Friend Request if you haven't even taken the time to leave a comment on atleast one of my images.
DID I MENTION HOW MUCH IT BOTHERS ME TO HAVE A MODEL FLAKE OUT AT THE LAST MINUTE OR JUST NOT SHOW UP? I REALIZE THAT LIFE IS HECTIC AND THINGS COME UP, BUT IF YOU'VE MADE A COMMITMENT, HAVE THE DECENCY TO HONOR IT OR ATLEAST GIVE ME FAIR NOTICE. I WILL RESPECT YOUR TIME AND I EXPECT THE SAME OF YOU. IF YOU FLAKE OUT, YOUR CHANCES OF WORKING WITH ME AGAIN ARE SLIM TO NONE.
