Standard rates are $75 per hour (min. 3 hours), be it fashion, nude, lingerie, whatever else we come up with..  If we're booking a full day together, talk to me and we'll do a reduced day-rate.

Whenever I'm sad, I just imagine if babies were born with moustaches.


Note:  Autumn is approaching.  Once it gets here I'm going to be invigorated, exhilarated, and positively itching to be outside among the hay bales, turning leaves, and barns.  This most lovely of all seasons sneaks in and out again quick as a ninja - so let's grab her when she's here and take full advantage.  We can deal with the soreness the next day... Think not of it; carpe diem.

My goal is to make the photographer happy; I want you to come away with images you love, to take your vision and manifest it in reality.  I'll bust ass to make this happen, am always on time, good conversationalist, and while this is work - and I act like it - I also know how to have fun on a shoot.  (The two are not, thankfully, mutually exclusive.)

My head is shaved, and will be for a while, methinks.  Wigs provide hair options galore.  (And if you have a big 'ole stock of wigs, I'll trade shooting time for more cool hair options!)

I don't mind getting messy.  And I have a thing for contrast - especially textures and locations.  High fashion against rough backdrops (think decrepit barns, train graveyards, junkyards...), the body as covered with something other than skin (mud, chalk, ash), etc etc.

Preference for fashion, edgy, moody work.  I admit to a deep draw towards well-used shadows. 

Nudity is fine, so long as it's tasteful and leaves some things to the imagination.  I'm not trying to play with the lines between art and pornography; though it makes for interesting conversation, I'd prefer to stay out of the questionable pieces in this medium.

What I won't do: depict violence against women.  (read: leave the fake blood at home) 

Grad student in comparative literature & philosophy during the year.  Sometimes that makes me too busy to shoot, but with advanced notice, anything can be worked into the schedule.
