*************** ABOUT FRIEND ADDING: ***************
I ONLY add friends with prior communication. Period. I also add those I know IRL, people I've worked with, or people I would like to work with. If you don't fit the aforementioned groups, please drop me a note, post a tag, or comment on an image--otherwise, I will assume you are simply collecting names. As IRL, friends require a bit of effort.
======================================================
New York City based director/photographer. I spend a lot of time in a cabin in Upper Bucks County, PA.
I shoot with film. With rare exception, 99.9% of what you see is done in camera. Not Photoshop.
If you want to work with me you will need to be at least 18 years old and able to prove it. You must be comfortable with nudity. (Yours, not mine.)
I am on MM to find artistic collaborators. I only pay for
jobs. I do
NOT pay for tests (TFP). Do not contact me for paid bookings. If I want to book you for a job, I will find you. Really.
Tests are a collaboration and a trade of services/time/talent to create images we both want/need. Yours, mine and any supporting members like hair and makeup artists, and assistants who are on the shoot. If photographer, hair, makeup, etc. are not getting paid, well then... If you want to be paid for a shoot, that is cool--but do not expect free images!
As somebody's mom once said (I think it was mine), you can't have your cake and eat it too.
