International photographer/videographer based in Maui, Hawaii and Tokyo, Japan. Started out shooting photo & video for destination weddings in Maui for over 13 years.
Several years ago I attended a workshop held by photographer Rolando Gomez and that's where I discovered how much fun model photoshoots can be. With the help of some very patient models and talented makeup artists and hairstylists, I've been slowly developing my portfolio, trying out new ideas and techniques.
I'm always interested in collaborating with models/makeup artists/hair stylists that have wacky/crazy/edgy/funny ideas that they want to try out. TFCD/TFP sessions are very limited at the moment, but I try to keep session rates reasonable especially for models that are just starting out.
For photographers that like what you see here, don't hesitate to ask if you have a question about something or if you are interested in doing a joint shoot. We should all help each other and share ideas and techniques, 'cause that's the only way we can all improve our photography.
The best images come from the best teams, and I have been very fortunate to have collaborated with great teams of models, makeup artists, & hair stylists both here in Hawaii and in Japan. A big Mahalo to all of you that I have worked with, as I could not have done it without your help (and patience).
Makeup Artists and Hair Stylists I HIGHLY recommend are:
Sally Kempton - Chicago, Illinois MM#888
Jessica Waite - Maui, Hawaii

Karli Benedict - Maui, Hawaii MM#526075
