Thanks for swinging by. 

Currently I'm WAY backed up with edits from shoots and weddings and really aren't taking on new shoots at this time.  Hope to be caught up soon!

I consider myself more a digital artist than a photographer as snapping the pic is only half the fun for me.

I'm always open for shooting pretty much any styles, especially if it's something I've never done before!  I tend to pick 'dark and disturbing' over 'bloody and gory', 'antiqued' over 'modern', low or natural lighting over bright studio lights...in short things slightly off from the norm!

Stay tuned as we should be announcing the next big shootout soon!!

Models I've worked with here on MM:

Lady Intoxication (#460345): Overwhelming is the first word that comes to mind, and it's fitting.  She can melt a lens with just a stare!  She knows how to hit the poses and falls into them naturally...several times during breaks on our shoot I just had to ask her to freeze where she was and grab a shot or two of her, her natural grace and classical beauty give her an uncanny ability to look amazing every instant!!

Nikki K (#623505): Full of energy and always ready to go, Nikki's great to shoot with!  Doesn't matter if it's coming up with fun and wild shoot ideas or just posing for 'em Nikki's ready for 'em both!

Kat Kalashnikov (#474712)
Vivica Hallow (#495371):
From just the short shoot we've had I can tell that Kat and Vivica's modeling personalities/styles/attitudes are very different, but it compliments one another so well.  Both of 'em were spot on with attitude, energy, looks and poses every time!

Jinx the Megatron (#107748): Very professional, ready to shoot every second, up for anything, she's awesome!

Miss Precious Pain (#733355):  Kara's off to such a great start in modeling!  Naturally dropping into poses, eager to veer from the norm, and not afraid to get a little muddy (or wet in a sudden downpour, ha).

Tiger RoxXx (#667882):  Sky's so much fun to shoot with!  Filled with energy and bubbling over with cool shot ideas and not only isn't afraid to do weird bizarre pics, she WANT'S those type pics, hee.  Works great with Selia too!

Selia D. Carmichael (#450898):  Selia's energy is bold and 'in your face' strong.  She never ran out of ideas and was constantly hitting on great poses without direction.  Lots of fun to shoot with!  But get her with Sky and watch out! ha

Stellar Moon (#197178):  Talk about a trooper, anyone who's feeling sick and is naked in the cold and can STILL pull off some amazing pics just rocks in my book!  And rock she did!  I don't call her the Captain for nuthin'!!

Lady Stripes (#535096): Stripes might be just starting out, but she's not afraid of the camera or to push the boundaries just a little farther.  From dark and mysterious to lighthearted and silly, Stripes can hit 'em all.

Redhead Robyn (#68022):  Sultry, sexy Meridith!  Her presence in front of the camera is always amazing to the point of overwhelming.  Always professional, always intense, when she's in front of the lens, she owns the camera!

Carole B (#278419):  Carole and I have worked together on several group shots and in the midst of that chaos I continually found myself being drawn back to shooting with her.  Carole's style and presence is bold and confidant, and her sultry expressions will melt a camera's lens!  She can pull off so many styles and isn't afraid to be a little goofy if the shot calls for it, which is always a plus in my book!

Joei Reed (#506710): Joei's so great to work with, she's always taking shot ideas and pushing them that extra bit.  She's wonderfully versitle and can pull off a myriad of looks and styles!  She carries an aire of class about her which makes its way into every image she's in.

Jessicaleah (#296943):  I'm sorry to say that on Jan17th, '08 Jessica has passed away from a car accident, and she will be greatly missed.  If it weren't for her I wouldn't have gotten back into photography.  I've had the pleasure of working with Leah four times.  I loved her energy and willingness to get a shot no matter what.  She was never afraid to get a little dirty and always went that exta mile for an image, plus she knew some amazing shooting locations!

Jenn Ryan (#105382):  Jenn's range of styles and looks never cease to amaze me!  From serious and sexy, to playful and poutty, she can show it all.  Her professionalism and attitude is unmatched as she always brings her 'A' game to any shoot.  Get her together with Lee Loo and watch-out!  Those two work amazingly well off one another.

lee loo (#103331): I've gotten to shoot with Lee on several themed shoots with multiple models and photographers, and Lee's ability to match her look to the called for style is amazing and to the point that I actually didn't even recognize her at first during the second time I was able to shoot with her.  Her range of expressions is truly wonderful!  When her and Jenn Ryan get together, you need to make sure you've got pleanty of film or lots of storage space because they're great together!

T R Feudale (#467032):  I've only had a chance to shoot with Tegan once, but she never ceased to amaze me with her ideas throughout the shoot.  She's always thinking of different takes on the photographer's concepts and ideas, and knows how to pull them off amazingly!

Miss Brittany Jo (#423639):  I've only worked with her once, and she might be young, but she's already got the look and attitude down and it shows in all her images!  I look forward to seeing where the future leads her because it will probably be something spectacular!
