Celebrating the Beauty of a Woman
"Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief she is beautiful." --Sophia Loren
My PASSION for photography involves blending natural or studio lighting and a model's beauty. I am easy to work with and comfortable with most styles. I consider the female figure to be a unique art form, and as such to be appreciated and also respected. I believe that each model brings her unique beauty, personality and enthusiasm to the shoot. My deepest desire is that a model leaves a shoot feeling better about who SHE is as an individual. I try to accomplish that goal by respecting her and bombarding her with lots of nice compliments!
I do NOT require any specific style to work with me. My work reflects many different styles BUT I accept and respect the limits desired by each model. In discussing a shoot I make sure that the model and I are on the same page. A model once told me that all the models in my portfolio looked comfortable. I cannot think of higher praise! A shoot should be fun and free from any pressure to go beyond your comfort level.
An escort is always welcome at my shoots. Some models bring a friend and some dont; but at least they know they CAN. Sorry I do not understand those photographers who "get their lens all out of focus" when the subject of an escort comes up. If an escort provides safety and comfort for a model then it is a no-brainer!
I work with model of all ages; I dont believe a model suddenly turns beautiful at midnight on her 18th birthday!
Under 18 means age-appropriate outfits and poses.
I like a model to be open to styles or ideas she has not done before; it is one way to grow and also to see if a style is a good fit for HER. I do not post any photo online without a model's permission.
I have access to studios in the metro Atlanta area (downtown, Tucker, and Buford), Columbus, and Oneonta AL. I also shoot outdoors on location around Georgia, Alabama, and South Carolina. I have studio lighting and therefore am available to shoot in various indoor locations.
So if you like my work, contact me to discuss a photo shoot. The result of working together creatively should be something that both of us should be proud of. That is what I strive to capture one frame at a time.

Ken is one of the sweetest and most endearing men I know. He is wonderful to work with and has made me rethink what the word safety means in this Profession. I have never felt so safe or comfortable then with Ken, working with him was beyond just a pleasure but an honor. I am very grateful to have met him and he has become more then just a photographer but a dear close friend.

Ken is a sweet, charming man with a great sense of humor! He loves to talk, and he's a great one to talk to. As supportive as they come, Ken goes out of his way to help girls build up their portfolios by seeing the potential in them and pulling it out of them! I appreciate his willingness to work with my ideas and step outside the box. He isn't out to shoot just the high-fashion, runway stick figures; Ken appreciates a woman's beautiful curves and truly emphasizes that in his work!

Not only is he an outstanding photographer, he has also become a wonderful friend of mine. :]

And that is just him as a person. As a photographer, he is wonderful as well! He will give direction when needed, knows a great shot when he sees it and is very open to any suggestions the model may have. Not to mention, the best photos I've seen coming from film! How do you do it?"

"I was one of the very first models Ken worked with when he first moved back to Atlanta, since then I've watched him grow in talent and gained an amazing friend! As a photographer Ken is always an absolute pleasure to work with. His charming and fun personality always make a shoot memorable. He's definitely one of my favorite photographers who I come back to over and over because he always has just enough guidance for some awesome ideas but also let's us, as models, explore our own creativity.
Today, when anyone asks for a good photographer, Ken is always the first to pop in to mind. You'll love working with him, I know I have."
