Hello everyone and thanks for checking out my work.
Just a quick note, I am no longer based in Atlanta. I am now based in Indiana (at least for now) outside a small town called Denver (70 miles north of Indianapolis).
Model Mayhem houses a portion of work, but by no means all of it. Please browse these pics and leave a comment or a tag if you like. Visit
www.richardmellinger.com to see more of my work, journal, bio, directions, etc. You can also find me on Facebook and Twitter.

I am updating my portfolio these days. I have tons of lifestyle/commercial shots, urban images, and head shots. For years I have been the “lifestyle guy,” but no more. These days I'm shooting art, fashion and edgy images. I'm updating my fashion, editorial, beauty, lingerie, swimsuit, and fashion/editorial tear sheets. If you have an idea that could be printed, hit me up . . . let's make it happen.
I am open to TFP shoots, but only if I like the idea and need it and your look. I love-love to collaborate on ideas and see what we can build. Photos are how I make money but they are also my passion and artistic outlet. The more artistic/creative you are, the more I will want to work with you. As a model I recently worked with said "Go big or stay home.” That said, hit me up if you want to collaborate and we'll take it from there.

IMPORTANT!!!! I do not consider this a dating site. I am not here to date or hookup with anyone. I keep it professional and I expect the same from you. What you do, wear or don’t wear in front of the camera is to get the shot we want/need . . . period. Gals and guys are encouraged to bring a friend/escort to any shoot but keep it to one person, please.
If we shoot for submissions, contests or regular TFP, you will receive a full-size copy of your images. I also include a copyright release so you may use the images on your site, but do know that some restrictions may apply depending upon magazine and contest guidelines and usage rights. But, you will know exactly what these are before we shoot. I hate surprises and I'm sure you do as well.
I've been testing for agencies in Atlanta, GA and other places for years (see credits), if you are a model in need of composite card images, please contact me for rates. My rates are not cheap, but reasonable. I do not shoot composite card tests for TFP unless you are represented by an agency that catches my interest.
Thanks, again for visiting my page.
