Generally Disturbing Information:
"I don't shoot nude models. I shoot abandoned buildings. Abandoned buildings occupied by nude models..."
TFCD: One time, I took my busted Mustang to a garage and told the mechanic I shouldn't have to pay him because I'm providing him a chance to add to his experience. It didn't go well. ...so why does it work in the photography industry?!?!
"We call her the organ grinder..."
"She can play that instrument?"
"It's an INSTRUMENT?!"
I am only accepting limited TF* due to overwhelming work demands. My rates are very low, so feel free to inquire. I WILL do TF of course for my upcoming project, check out the details below!
Also, I do TFHam and TFBody Bags.
"I cover up my mistakes by making accusations that the entire world as we know it is wrong. Even that time I thought it was Thursday."
Cynical Fun Fact: When your friend accidentally shoots you in the chest with his new hand gun he just couldn't wait to show off, he will make sure he sets his Tivo before driving you to the hospital.
***ANGELSINASHES***
I am involved in putting together a new website called AngelsinAshes. It features gothic beauty, clothing designs, make-up artists, bands and anything along the line of industrial. As of now, it's a free project, so all work is trade. Keep in mind, this project features
TASTEFUL NUDITY! If you want your talents featured, contact me!!! The Myspace page is at:

Things you should probably know:
I'm a very unconventional photographer (didn't you notice from the Fun Facts?!). I prefer remote areas (no one can hear you scream there), desolate abandoned buildings (no one can hear you scream there either), morgues, warehouses; that sort. I also prefer making comments that cause you to question my mental stability. Mwahahaha...
ANYWAY, I take pride in the lengths I'll go to get amazing shots that no one else will go after. I do any and every kind of photography (unless it has a penis or body hair...long story), but most people that contact me are seeking my "trademarked" post-apocaplyptic industrial style (it's so original, it's only been done by...well, everyone). Also, I have a near sexual attraction to Ford Mustangs and anything to do with
zombies.
I am more than willing to travel for photo shoots as long as weather is good or we're shooting indoors...or I just finished watching Gone in 60 Seconds. If I'm travelling to you, I do need gas money, though. My car sucks on gas (the SPACE SHUTTLE gets better gas mileage), but hey, how many photographers can make a 250 mile drive in under 2 hours?
I'm very open minded with concepts. Usually a model will have a few ideas and I'll have my own which we mix together in a
frothy mixture of photography goodness*.
*45% madness by volume. Sale to minors strictly prohibited.
"I have a strange habit of imitating the poses I want done."
I can't even begin to imagine how funny that looks to the models. Apparently, when I am planning something out, I hum the Indiana Jones theme song. I'm fluent in 1337-speak and I've been told I am "dorky in a cute way". I tend to cackle fiendishly when I achieve a great shot. Apparently, this is adorable.
"I'm very shy in front of pretty girls."
I must warn anyone that hires me: I like to make people laugh. A good sense of humor is required in order to work with me. Think of me as part photographer, part Invader Zim, part GIR (and I've been told I resemble JTHM...spooky, no?). When I get a great shot, I enjoy throwing my hands in the air and shouting "I am a GEEEENIUS!!!" I also have a tendancy to argue with my equipment and other inanimate objects.
"Sometimes I like to wait until the model is in that perfect pose and shout something utterly ridiculous."
Lastly, I would like to add that
I am insanely busy and as much as I'd like to reply to every comment and message, I simply don't have enough minutes in the day. Do know that
it REALLY makes my day seeing your appreciation of my work. Every little bit counts...even if you clicked on me by accident...
Random Questions that May Occupy your Brain:
What are your rates?:
My rates differ depending on the project. I'm reasonable. No arms or legs involved. I'm willing to do trade work IF it can be used in conjunction with my upcoming website (and hey, I split profits with the models! Neat, huh?).
My boyfriend is a photographer/escort/serial murderer, can he come with me to the shoot?:
NORMALLY, I don't allow escorts, but that's only because I have an INCREDIBLY short attention span. Trust me, I'm concentrating way more on lighting and angles than I am on scoring some Nom-Noms. I have DOZENS of references that will verify that I am nothing more than a badly dressed, but cute and cuddly critter. Also, I weigh a whopping 135 pounds, so I'm not exactly terrifying. If you are so terrified of the lovable little goth guy with a camera that you have to bring a body guard, why are you working with me?! If you have some sort of SANE reason to bring someone else, just ask. Sometimes I'm nice and don't mind extra company/victims.
That last line makes you wonder...
Do I have to show my bewbs and nom-nom?:
I prefer the fashion of the goth world. Corsets, fishnets, dread falls, dresses. That sort. However, my website is geared toward artistic, tasteful nudity, which proves more commercially viable for some reason (internet=perverts?). With that said, I have never asked a model to take anything off and never will (except when a model chased me around with a strapon. That was frightening!). I'm all about shooting what
you want to shoot; what you're comfortable shooting. I'm happy just clicking the shutter button.
How many photos will I get from a shoot?:
Every shoot produces at least 20-40 high quallity,
fully edited shots. Keep in mind that editing that many photos DOES take time (usually 2-3 weeks), but I never let a photo leave my computer unlesss it's amazing. Except that time I took pictures of me and my friends sledding down a hill on a rocking chair. But come on I mean, it was a ROCKING CHAIR!
404: Photographer Not Found:
I work in a restaurant, draw a comicbook series, and babysit my dumbass room mate that thinks WD-40 is massage oil. I can't always reply to every message right away, even if I read them as soon as I get them. Yes, I'm that busy. I apologize in advance, BUT I do make sure I get back to everyone in a reasonable amount of time.
