I'm an editorial fashion photographer. I primarily work in NYC & Europe. Schedule permitting, I'm open to testings.

A testing with me is a bit different as with the protocol I'm accustomed to. A make up artist, stylist will be on site and may arrange for a fitting. You must be comfortable with people on site during the testing. The reason it is called a test instead of a shoot by agency bookers.  Aside from the obvious of building the model's book, its to get the "new face" acclimated to being within a professional shooting environment. I will only shoot what my eye perceives, meaning that I will not test to emulate other photographers or tears. 

I'm very selective and do not charge for testings.  The criteria for a test with me is rather simple, a strong face, minimum height (5'8") and humility within the model's personality. As with protocol within my realm, a "Model's Testing Release" will be required to be signed by the model and/or guardian. This instrument will restrict the use of the images by modeling agency, model and photographer.
