I am an experienced photographer living in the Bay Area and traveling to L.A. frequently. I do limited TF work and usually only when they are my own idea's. If you're interested, please inquire - don't worry, I don't bite... well... not usually.
I'm also very interested in working with new MUA's and Hair Stylists as well as Clothing Designers.
I shoot a lot of events and I'm a contributing photographer for two of the largest celebrity and event photography companies in the world - WireImage and Getty Images. I love shooting celebrity red carpet events as well as concerts. It's super fun to have VIP access to some of the most exclusive parties and concerts in the world. And no, I am not a paparazzi... I'm press, I'm invited to be there.
Everyone I work with says how easy I am to work with and how professional I am. I hold myself and those I work with to high standards of professionalism.
I do have some really interesting idea's floating around in my head right now and I'd love to capture them. I'm very interested in shooting dark, storylike images - think, creepy/cute. Fashion with a twist, so to speak. I'm interested in working with models who are professional models or who look and pose like professional models. While I'm very good at directing models, I don't want to have to do your job for you. So, if we work together, I expect you to know what you're doing.

Also, I regularly shoot for a nude female site -

Thanks for reading!
