        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
i'm still mostly experimenting, looking to eventually develop my own style. i shoot almost everything (except bugs and birds). i mostly use my profile here for the orlando market.

if you want to work with me, PLEASE READ:

--- i use www.modelrun.com to manage my photo shoots and calendar, so it would be the best to contact me there for easy-to schedule photo shoots. I'm #1923.

--- i AM interested in shooting fashion (and everything else), but why ALL models want to shoot fashion - i'll never know.

--- i'm convinced that modeling is harder than photography. but i hardly accept this with understanding. think about it.

--- i'm BRUTAL

--- i love to work with smart, realistic and energetic models with personality and artistic skills the most.

--- RATES:

  - Photography: (Models only) - $135/hour - fashion, glamour, swimsuit, lingerie, commercial, head-shots, polaroids, etc. your choice of studio, location or both.

  - agency and client rates depend on the project, starting at $300/hour.

  - Video: $200 / HD model reel (1080p - shot on 7D) (model reels used to be a nice addition to model's portfolio, but now all legit agencies require their models to have a model reel.

--- TFP - VERY LIMITED, also good to know:

    - i do NOT shoot Portraits or Commercial for free. and by the way, that Orlando "model agency" that promised you commercial work simply tricked you.


    - no fashion TFP with models that don't meet the requirements and have the look of a fashion model. it doesn't benefit our portfolios - neither mine nor yours. (orlando models, wake up - there's not a single fashion designer/client that lives in Disneyland!

    - "ANYTHING" - please don't say "anything" when i ask you what you would like to shoot, because i would offer you to get naked and shoot you with my dog humping your leg. i'm serious  - i will. so let's not exchange 7 messages before finding out that all you care for is casual jeans shots in "colorful" locations. i'm not into this.

   - ESCORTS - why not, i love escorts, bring one for me as well! or can I bring an escort as well? i have a couple of weirdo friends that just like to watch - they won't be in the way! no? why not?

   - i don't mind sharing my experience with you, but please try to do at least some of your homework before you contact me.

   - please do not teach me how to shoot and do not insist on me telling you every detail of my "idea" for the shoot. i know you like that green pipe downtown that you think it looks "REALLY COOL" but don't try to make me go there and shoot you next to it, because i won't.

   - i deliver pictures slower than normal. it's not you - it's me!

EDIT: and no, i cannot email you the whole photo shoot, unless you live at Bill Gates' house and i'm his best buddy and live across the street. (has something to do with light-speed internet)

FINAL TIP to all smart models: "fashion" is a word that has damaged most models' careers, leaving them with nothing at the end. freelance modeling can be a very serious career, but it does NOT include fashion (no fashion client works with models directly). there's no power in the world that will make you believe me, but just remember these words when you turn 30 and haven't made a penny from modeling. find out why. (the word "fashion" would be a good place to start)
