*Please no drive-by friend request. Those on my list I have either worked with, admire their work/want to work with and we have exchanged messages, or I actually know them.
I am an amateur photographer and worked back when everyone was using a 35mm and retouching was something only professionals did.
I attended Butte Collage in Chico, CA. Worked with some female erotic entertainers, The "California Bad Boys", and did a few weddings.
My photos won a few times at The Silverdollar Fair - Animals, Children, Black & Whites - which I realize isn't a big deal ;-)
Still haven't entered the digital age with a good camera, but hope to get a new one soon. I love looking at everyone's photos and have really enjoyed this website (it has sparked by interest again!).
I would like to network with photographers looking for a new place, we are about 1.5 hours North of DFW.
********************************************
Photographers I highly recommend:
Manuel Crespo MM #665902 – Manny is truly in it for the love of photography. He can envision and execute concepts wonderfully.
Shea Cannon MM #703841 – If you are new to fashion, Shea is the guy you want to work with! He is so easy going and is wonderful at directing poses.
David Hofmann MM #712969 – A fantastic person, photographer and post processor. He is so creative and truly talented.
H. James Hoff MM #5061 – An amazing artist and completely professional! James is incredibly fast, knows what he is after and is able to capture it.
