About me
Hi, I'm Roger Wiedyk. 

I've been a serious amateur photographer for more than 20 years.  Most of my work is what I call "Fantasy" photography.  I'm most inspired by the paintings of Luis Royo and Frank Frazetta; and the classic Universal Horror Films of the 1930s.  Yes, I've been published if that sort of thing matters to you, and my work is on a few CD and DVD covers.  But I'm really more about art.

Since this is a hobby for me, I work almost exclusively for trade.  I usually supply the model with a disk containing all the images at the end of the shoot.  Then you can get back to me with whatever you may want retouched.  Yeah, yeah...I know...everybody says you're gonna post crummy images that make me look bad.  But...I'm guessing you don't wanna look bad either, right?  I think we'll be okay. 

Studio work is done out of my apartment, where I have a small but well equipped shooting room.  All the "stone" walls, the arch, throne, sarcophagus, and various other set pieces you can see in some of my photos are here.  I have a lot of fantasy props, armor, and weapons available for use as well. 

My behavior is always professional, but well behaved escorts are welcome! 

I enjoy the process of collaboration, and I don't have a big ego.  I just wanna make some art.  However, it's been a flake-a-rama lately...so if you want to make the photos, please remember that you do have to actually show up!  If you aren't gonna do that, please don't waste our time!  I take what I do VERY seriously!

Contact me here or at:  barbarianphoto@yahoo.com



I'm happy to return comments or tags, but I do not "return" lists.  If I've "listed" your photo, it's because it knocked me out!

I love Frazetta thou I've just found out about him. I think so many great painters started out as illustrators. Hopefully my path will be similar though only God knows if I'll be anywhere near as good as them. I love the thought put into your compositions & shots. So much more than dress up & take a pic. I need to go back to comp myself before I put all the "candy" in.
