About me
***."ATTENTION".***
...I have 9 pre-50 vintage car shows, 3 pre-50 vintage bike shows, and 1 air show from now until December 09. If you are interested in working any of these shows for TFCD, then please feel free to get back to me ASAP and set up dates... peace...
...Pin-Ups...
A sketch of curves and sensuality...
A voluptuous world of inviting women...
Brigitte Bardot, Bettie Page, and Marilyn Monroe...
Pinned deep in the souls of men and painted on the noses of american warbirds...
A playful world of eternal femininity in movies, magazines, and celebrities...
Pencil Skirts, Pumps, and Pin-Ups...
..."Nosce Te Ipsum"...
..."A great photograph becomes the mirror of love"...
..."Before the beginning of great brilliance. there must be chaos before a brilliant person begins something great, they must look foolish to the crowd"...
..."Beauty and Flesh are my drugs, Blood is my appetizer, and Love will always be stronger than Death"...
..."I'd rather be Hated for who I am, Than Loved for who I am not"...
...hhmmm, about me...OK...For starters, I am a Freelance Photographer and Photojournalist who specializes in vintage car and bike events(Hot Rods, Rat Rods, Muscle Cars, Vintage Bikes, Rat Bikes, Bobbers, WWII Aircraft, Vintage Boats, Balloons, etc...) which move into the tattoo and piercing sub-culture, and the Rock-A-Billy and PsychoBilly music scenes that accompany Vintage and Retro Pin-Ups...
...I like to consider my work as "Organic Photography" because I don't prefer to use Photoshop as an additive for flavour, Like back in the days of film, get it right the first time without having to fix it, and use what is in front of you as artisticly and originally as possible, show the subject as they really are...I usually give my models creative control when we are shooting, so that the model is both comfortable and natural, either in studio or on location...
...My style starts with a time gone by, but not forgotten. I prefer the classic Pin-up, Cheesecake, and Fetish to shoot, but I don't stop there, My interests move through tattoos, body modifications, Vintage Bikes, Vintage cars, Hot Rods, Muscle cars, Vintage Airplanes, Vintage Boats, Goth, and all the darkness in the world that so many are afraid to touch with ones eye...I don't believe in taking pictures, for I only wish to borrow your Image...
...other photographic interests include Paranormal Research photo/audio documentation of the same and Investigative PhotoDocumentation. I run a paranormal research group here in Fl for over 14 years now and assist with another group in OR, I have been personally investigating for over 20 years. Tell me what haunts your soul, and we'll search for the key...
...Most work is Trade for Time/Prints/CD But there is paid work available as it comes along...Stay in touch.

Thanks for your kind words. Your port has it's own great energy and a pretty cool history lesson to boot. Very Cool. One of these days we'll have to cross paths.
