About me
"When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph."
     
I have unusual and eclectic tastes; I do my best to create something that could be considered timeless.
I attempt having no limits or boundaries artistically, yet I respect that this philosophy is not for everyone.

I take photos of people because they fascinate me.

ME: an amateur photographer since 2006; no formal study; self taught with a Tolstoyian philosophy of it doesn't matter how good you are, but how much better you are doing it than everybody else.

TFP:

TFP is not a problem; I only ask that you please have a clear idea of a theme or concept.
If you are uncertain or more inclined towards working with me creatively, and I often have various creative projects in the works, I ask that models respect my artistic ideals, but to let me know if they are uncomfortable with what I ask of them creatively PRIOR TO THE SHOOT; I am happy to accommodate but cannot do so unless informed. smile

TFP for Models/MUA's: A guaranteed lunch, laughs and a low pressure environment, and assistance in transportation around Geelong (i.e happy to pick you or drop you to the station, bus, friends house, etc.) but getting to Geelong itself remains your expense.
Payment of kit fee for MUA's is dependent on experience/rates and TFP concept.

I am unsympathetic to last-minute cancellations or no-shows.
I would ask for at least 48 hours notice prior to a shoot if cancellation is absolutely necessary.
I run my studio and my photography like a tight ship; I only ask professionally what you can expect from me: punctuality, originality, personality and courtesy.

You can expect 1-5 high-resolution images from the photoshoot, posted or sent via email (optional) within 14 days of the photoshoot.
*the amount of photos can often vary to include much more, but this is dependent upon the models' skill/experience/commitment, and the concept.

For sure R

What we did last time still remains my favourite as it gave me a chance to think outside the box n do somethng different

you are yourself a room full of ideas.. Great ideas actually

just nudge me if theres smthng u wana do.. Would love to do somethng in a group rather then solo.. However if solo shoot in itself is challenging i dont mind

i guess im happy shooting cos i knw it will be a great one as i will b working with u

Hey Rach!
Sorry I didn't get back to you, I haven't actually been on here for a very long time, just starting to get back into the swing of things!
Your folio is looking amazing girl, it really really is. =)
As for the makeup, sure I'd be up for helping out every now and then...unfortunately I work a lot, but lemme know if you need anyone for anything and I'll do my very best to be there!
Hope you're doing well.

Rachel,

Thanks for your kind words. I haven't a clue where Geelong is but hopefully it isn't as snobby as Rippleside.

Actually I know nothing of Rippleside... just like the name.

Cool port and profile, keep up the good work and let me know if you post some new images of people with tats, something that I keep meaning to shoot... that and goths, but I have to infiltrate their world somehow and the restraining order keeps me close to homes.

Cheers,
Grant.

Well obviously - so start lookin for cheap flights!!! My friends went to australia round trip for like 600 700US. I know that seems a lot or so but keep in mind when I came my round trip flight cost me 3000US! so ya it costs me about 400 to fly between California and Connecticut where i'm originally from so a flight like 3x that distance for 200 bucks more is def a great price. Flights will probably be low priced now after August since summer is turning to fall (although its still warm anyways in CA until like late november early December)

No problem girl!

I'm pretty booked up till around the start of August, so any time after that suits me :D
What're you new projects?

I've got a few ideas in my head about possible themes, I'm quite used to the 50's pin up look so branching out abit from that would be fab! ahah.

alyssa.amelia@gmail.com, let me know!
