I started in the art world fairly young, my first design job was packaging for "bubblegum CD's" at 12. Of course I wasn't compensated for my work, but it laid the foundation for my career in design/photography. In 2002 I started my own design company (Ebb Tight Pro) which grew at an insane rate (by the end of 2003 I had acquired hundreds of indie album cover jobs and began working with several aspiring models.) I have always enjoyed photography but working with local musicians it became damn near mandatory for budget reasons. As I developed a better technique I started shooting for sport rather than just pay. In 2005 I won the "Graphic Designer of the Year" award from the Southern Ent Awards and had recruited close to 20 models that I worked with on a regular basis, many of which I have come to consider close friends. My work ethic and quality would eventually land me design gigs with major label acts such as Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Keyshia Cole. In spring of 08 I changed the name of the company to Kyro Ink and built a new website with expanded portfolios. Photography has become a personal fav because of the freedom and range it allows.

I recently relocated back to the Middle TN area from OK, by way of ATL, and looking to expand my portfolio & meet new people in the process. If you have any ideas for a shoot, let me know, I'm always game for trying something new.

Observing the bizarre nature of these sites, I feel it is important to mention that I am a family man who works with respect and professionalism. Awkward & uncomfortable shoots never turn out right so I would never ask a model to do something that they are not comfortable doing.
