CURRENTLY LOOKING TO COLLABORATE WITH DESIGNERS
*FRIEND REQUESTS - This isn't MySpace
In all sincerity, i really appreciate friend requests and I'm flattered that you'd want to add me for my work, however a photo comment, tag, or list will do the job. Please message me along with your request, I'll gladly add you if it's for networking, because we're working together soon, or might do so in the future (near or not super distant).
A LITTLE ABOUT ME
My name is David Ramirez. I'm a student at Pasadena City College and East Los Angeles College while i build my portfolio for admittance into Art Center College of Design. That's my academic goal. My career goal is to be a fashion photographer. I admire the editorials in fashion magazines and praise the marketing in retail store windows...i want someone to look at my work the same way one day
*IF I WAS EVER SATISFIED WITH MY WORK, I'D STOP SHOOTING
As a photographer, I'm constantly looking to shoot something new; locations, models, with different lights, indoor, outdoor, and concepts.
But I'll try anything twice to make sure I got it right.
*"I SAID MAKE LOVE TO THE CAMERA, I DIDN'T SAY F*** IT" -ME
I WILL SHOOT NUDES. I am perfectly comfortable with it and i think nudity adds an element to a photograph that nothing else can, however, I am careful about what i choose to put my name on. I will only shoot tasteful nudes, unless you're willing to pay me a lot of money (in which case, please don't credit me, lol)
I am open to TF*:
-Only if it benefits my portfolio
-because you have a look that interests me, great idea
-because you're a designer with pieces/ideas that speak to me
-because you're a hair/makeup artist that can add to my book
-All models must sign a release
-The # of shots you get will be limited and that # is a SET #
(agreed upon planning). I am wiling to do a lot for a co-worker,
DON'T PUSH IT.
-I make an effort to be prepared and on time. I expect the same
from you.
-TF* is to help each other grow as artists in our respect and to
network. I will never post work without giving credit to EVERYONE
involved, and I expect the same from everyone else.
-If I don't accept a TF* please don't be offended, it doesn't mean
you're not good, it just means you're not what i am looking for right
now. In any case, my rates are pretty good
