RA Friedman

If you are looking for a very different approach to your images, read on!  I am a traditional photographer but not old-fashioned. I take my time, pre-plan my shoots, and am a very careful editor. I always strive to get the images as best as I can straight from the camera, but I'm also very adept at Photo shop. My background is in the fine arts and I often make drawings as part of the image-making process.

I also run a photography non-profit called Tsirkus Fotografika that travels around doing vintage shoots and I'm open to doing TFP studio shos if the images can be used on the Facebook page for Tsirkus. Models for my own fine art projects are usually paid a modest honorarium and of course are welcome to any digital images or prints they might want.

My rates are extremely reasonable and usually a flat fee, even if the image requires additional work to get it to where it needs to be.  I like the images to have a certain edge that they "earn" creatively and am willing to go the distance to get there.
