About Me

I have been a photographer and artist for 20+ years. I am currently a published concert photographer as well as an award winning travel photographer.

I own Dark Art Imaging which is quickly becoming one of the premier concert photography companies in the USA.
This year we are just breaking into model and fashion photography and are looking at taking these fields by storm as well.

My style of photography is very High Definition. By not being so demanding of my subjects and letting them be themselves I tend to get more natural and real looks. Even in the concert photography field my images seem to be more HI-Def then most.
I am joining this site as an opportunity to possibly meet some more professional models and possibly get some good advice from some of the current fashion photographers to help further my portfolio and career.

I’m open to modelling with other male or female models (locals or traveling) in the studio as well as on location in various conditions & throughout a broad range of styles. My extra talents; I’m a musician, I know how to free dive which is good for underwater shots, can horse ride, go on long hikes & also can crack a stock whip, I practice yoga, & have done basic pole & aerial hoop/silks. IG; @layal.official (non nudes) @aim.model (nude) @aim.backup.model1 (back up nude)
Please let me know if you are interested & have a preferred day/time to shoot along with what area you are coming from or have in mind to shoot.
