Rebuilding my portfolio. Get me while you can!

I'm here to work with people who have a desire to make images that go beyond ordinary.  Images that take time and planning.  I love to plan locations, wardrobe, props, etc. to make images that are more than portraits.  I am not the kind of photographer who shows up and works on a whim.

If you have a great idea please throw it at me.  If it's cool, I'm probably in.

I never charge to work with models.  I do this for me.  It's for art and friendship.  It's what I love.  I also know traveling models need expense money.  I'm not above that. If you're passing through my area, let me know.

When I work on a project with a model, I am after something very special.  I hate mediocre.  We may make many images on a shoot to capture just a few good shots.  Those I will retouch and share with the model.  I won't use any for myself that the model doesn't have for their use.  Just please don't expect them all.  A few high quality images are much better than hundreds of mediocre ones.  I've worked very hard and spent a ton of money to learn to create quailty images.  I can't cheapen that by passing out just anything.

I also ask that models don't retouch my images.  If you appreciate my images enough to work with me then please trust me to make something we can both be proud of.  Once someone else leaves their mark on my images they're worthless to me.  I liken it to adding brush strokes to a painters canvas.
