I'm a "semi-professional" photographer. I live in an area that is a bit on the dry end when it comes to financial compensation. SO I'm up for selected TFP.
SO... I'm into comic books, music (blues, rock, punk), vintage/retro style, and literature. I like to photograph beards, tattoos, piercings, musicians, old folks, gritty street scenes, pinup, chicks in costumes, neon nightlife, bikers, burlesque, and anything else considered alt art. I'm trying to break free from the editorial/fashion style and steer my portfolio in the direction of more subcultural styles. I like dark, overprocessed photos, but I'm fully capable of other styles as well if you're going to pay me.
I'm interested in TF* shoots of certain styles/genres, but I am, of course, interested primarily in paid shoots. If I shoot TF with you, I automatically expect to use the photos for my portfolio. If I do not think that a shoot will benefit my port, I will not do it for TF, so don't be offended, it's nothing personal. Probably. For editorial work, message me for rates.
I'm also VERY interested in working with Wardrobe/Hair stylists and MUAs, ESPECIALLY IN THE PINUP STYLE. I have access to mostly vintage wardrobe. I love shooting costumed shoots, so if you've got costumes, I'll almost certainly shoot you for free, so PLEASE BRING THEM.
I am willing to travel ANYWHERE if my expenses are paid. If not, I may still travel around north GA or SC if I feel like it will greatly benefit my marketability.
Out of respect for my photographic style and my lovely and supportive girlfriend, for TF I will not shoot nudes and probably not implied either. Paid is a different story, so feel free to ask.
I love comments on my photography and I can take criticism very well, so please let me know what you think. I'm always trying to improve and test the limits of my equipment.
I have an in-home studio, but I'm usually an on-location photographer. Your preference is my preference.
Message me for questions and if you want to shoot, let me know and we'll try to work something out!
