Models, MUA,Wardrobe Stylists and Hairstylists: I have started a mailing list to contact industry professionals that have an interest in working with me - updates will be sent on new projects whereby I am looking for models and team members, as well as a notifications for days I am offering collaborative work sessions. Message me or e-mail me to be added to this list.
I select and shoot models for photo spreads appearing in an international fashion and lifestyle magazine. I have worked in nearly every part of the industry, and with prestigious members of the photographic community worldwide.
Clients and models wishing to book with me expect quality. They understand what makes an image exceptional and know they will get what they pay for.
EXTREMELY LIMITED MODEL TRADE: Models wanted for off-the-wall fashion/editorial. You must be 5'9-6'0" with standard fashion stats. Comfort with topless/implied fashion work and an extensive wardrobe is a plus.

Specializing in art photography and in building model portfolios for both new and veteran models, I am able to asses the strengths within an individual and highlight them, while minimizing any physical weaknesses.
Yes, I can make anyone look like a "model." Care to challenge me?
I use the latest in digital technology, and have developed years of exceptional digital enhancement and retouching skills to ensure sure you will look your best in each and every image.
I shoot all styles, so just let me know what you are looking for, and I'll make it happen.
Tips and advice for the day of the shoot: Please be on time. Come with your hair clean and styled. You can bring styling tools and products if you need to touch up after arriving or after having your make-up done. If you are having your make-up done here, please come with a bare face. If you are going to do your own hair and make-up, please arrive camera-ready. Your call time is the time that we start shooting unless you have opted for professional make-up artist services, which means you would need to arrive one hour BEFORE the call time. If you have any doubts that you might need a makeup artist, I urge you to try it once and let the final product help you decide.
My philosophy is three-fold:
1. Anyone can be beautiful with the right tools. Sometimes great beauty comes from unexpected places.
2. Models need photographers to help build their portfolios. Photographers need models to help build theirs. Through working together give-and-take with a healthy dose of mutual respect, in the end everybody wins!
3. When you finally get to your destination of success, either in life or in your career, be sure to take care of everyone who's helped you get there.
I'm devoted to working with you to create mutually beneficial images. Contact me, and let's compare schedules!
