I will also be shooting a LOT more in the DMV area, so be on the lookout!
This profile is for my work with MALE models. My work with FEMALE models can be located on my alternate profile by clicking HERE or referring to the first profile in my top 12.
**I am looking for a muse. Are you my muse?** (All fashion/plus models welcome to apply.)
I'd like to begin by thanking everyone who sends me love, critique, advice, and feedback on my work! It definitely helps me grow and learn and change for the better.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Shon. I got my start in fashion photography last year. I enjoy working with natural light, and I am open to any and everything as long as it's a fashion shot... as long as it looks like something is happening. I've got to feel it, you know? Because that's really what it's all about, to me at least.
I will not give out unedited photos. I will not give out unedited photos. I will not give out unedited photos. I will not give out unedited photos. I will not give out unedited photos.
I mean it.
Almost
NO TFP/TFCD...
Very, very selective. It's time I got serious about this as my passion and my career and not just a hobby. My rates are reasonable, and again I'm still open to selective TF* ONLY with
models who have a striking look and fit FASHION industry standards (both straight size and plus) when I have a project I'm working on.
If you are unsure about industry standards, please see
http://www.newmodels.com/
To summarize:
_____________
~WOMEN: 5'9" and above, size 6 and below.
~PLUS: 5'9" and above, sizes 10-18, toned, hourglass figure.
*[For women, certain exceptions could be made for 5'7"-5'8" if you're fit and striking enough.]
~MEN: 5'11" and above, fit and toned body.
~ALL: Please don't have ridiculously deep/orange tans. A LIGHT natural tan is workable, but I am not a fan of that beach babe/hunk look. Also, please keep your nails (all 20 of them) well-kempt.
* For BEAUTY work, height is irrelevant, but by golly, you'd better have a face that is out of this world!
*
HOWEVER, if you can get me access to a yacht for a personal project of mine, I will be your photoservant (well, for like 2 shoots...)
I WILL ALSO DO TF* FOR WARDROBE/SHOES/ACCESSORIES, so if you are low on cash and have nice pieces to give me, then please let me know, and we can dicuss a free or reduced-rate shoot. *
If I approach you, then it's clearly for TFP. I would never solicit paid work, and I ask for that same respect.
Also, I ALWAYS need HAIR stylists, MAKEUP artists, WARDROBE stylists, and clothing DESIGNERS to collaborate with. I also like collaborating with other photographers. I do not mind assisting you on your set so that I can learn from you, and will never turn down someone who wants to do the same for me. It's all love here!
Any and all models are encouraged to contact me. I've also been known to frequent Washington D.C., North/South Carolina, and New York.
Lastly, you call them "escorts." I call them "assistants." How YOU doin'?
