Read all of this!
This is me. If someone else shows up for our shoot, run.
This profile is for my portrait work and candid photography. I have much more to offer on my online store at
http://pdbreske.smugmug.com. Check it out!
For a limited time I am accepting trade work to break in my new studio, but only for ideas that I haven't yet added to my portfolio: Pinup, glamour, nude, erotica, etc. Look at the "Ideas I want to try" list and if you would like to work on one (or more) of them, I'd happily do it as part of a TF* shoot. Contact me if you're interested!
-------------------
Photography pricing:
Two head shots, color or black & white: $100
Half a day (up to 4 hours)* on location on in the studio: $300
Full day (up to 8 hours)* on location or in the studio: $600
*The number of images included will depend on many things, but I am usually able to get a dozen to twenty beautiful shots from a half-day shoot and twice that for a full day.
After the shoot I'll edit and process all the photos and select only the best shots from the session. Some will be in color, some in black and white, and some will be processed in both.
Whether to convert to B&W is solely my decision based on my artistic vision.
------------------
While I live and work in Miami, I visit family a few times a year in central Florida, so if you live near the Ocala area and would like to shoot, let me know!
I specialize in casual photos, artistic portraits and head shots, but I'm also willing to try a few new ideas to keep from getting bored. I think my strength is casual portraits and B&W, but I'd like to think I can take good picture no matter the subject. If I feel our mutual interests are not best served by working together, I'll let you know and suggest you find someone who is more likely to produce that which you are looking for.
While I do not exclude escorts from our shoot, I do want to know beforehand if you're bringing someone with you. I don't mind an escort, but I feel weird if two or more people show up and I was only expecting one, so keep me in the loop and we'll be fine.
Anyone wanting to work with me is welcome to contact any of the models I've worked with. They'll tell you I'm professional, laid back, a fast worker and I love to hear your ideas. Do your homework and you won't have any surprises when you're shooting with someone new.
I hope to soon start a years-long road trip around the country, and I'd love to work with models from coast to coast, so send me a message or a tag if you like my work and maybe we'll get a chance to work together in the future!
I don't accept Friend Requests from people who do not send me a message or a Tag first. Apparently, this is too much to ask as I've received dozens of Friend Requests unaccompanied by any other form of communication. Learn to read and we'll work together.
One other thing: I really don't appreciate when anyone edits, crops, colorizes or otherwise messes about with my work. If you don't like my photos, don't ask to work with me. When you change my images because you like the way it looks with a desaturated tint or a different crop or whatever, other people will see that and think that I had a hand in the creation of it. Either they will like it and want me to make their photos look the same, or they will hate it and not want to work with me. Either way, I lose. Since I can't physically stop you from goofing around with my work, I ask that you EXPRESSLY state that any changes you made to my work are yours and not mine. I'd feel a lot better if you just left it alone, though.
