About me
My book is complete and is now available here:

Capturing beauty

I am working on a new Fine Art Nude book and I need models to collaborate with.  Message me so we can work on creating something unique.   

My art website and blog are below:

http://www.definitionsofwomen.com/Pics/Dow-500-232-2.jpg

I am a conceptual person when it comes to my shoots,  I want my images to have more meaning than to just look pretty. I strive to capture the essence and soul of my subject, it is why I do this.  I also prefer a story or juxtaposition in my work.  I believe in a strong connection and collaboration with my models.  Your ideas and input are important to me and it all adds to the artistic integrity of the shoot.   Let me know what we can shoot together. 

I am still shooting some very selective and very limited pinup and vintage style work.  I am lucky to have assemble an amazing team of people.  Sherri Dix hair, Ashley Merritt MUA and Elsa Brodmann Clothing and Wardrobe Designer.  Longer hair and curves are the  preferred look for this shoot.  Message me if you are interested but please allocate time for fittings, makeup, and hair also please understand it is a team decision as to whether you would work for a pinup look.

My pinup and fashion website is here:

www.nolaphoto.com

If another photographer or model that I have worked with referred you to me please let me know in your correspondence, it makes a difference to me.

TF* Process:  Typically within 24 hours of a shoot I will batch process all of the photos and post them in a gallery on the nolaphoto site for viewing only.  Everyone who participates chooses their top 10 images.  Everyone's top 10 images are then touched up and posted to a finals gallery where they are available for full download of the high resolution images.   

Thank you for stopping by.  I look forward to working with you!

You are kind and thank you on the comment. I have to tell ya, sometimes I don't get the Mayflower prude mentality we still harbor here in this country. But, hey! It is what it is. Art is in the eyes of the beholder.

Cheers,

I plan on doing a road trip all over the south
mainly from Houston Texas to Tampa Florida
So I'm looking to collaborate with good photographers along the way

While also trying to find a place for me and my road buddy/MUA to stay

Im looking for mainly looking for tfp/cd

or reasonable rates seeing as the plain idea of driving around the south is pretty hardcore on the wallet

Just looking for someone who has locations
and maybe wardrobe connections :]

my hair can be anything you want it to be
i just need to plan out things and advance
as well as clothing and shoes

so if your interested in shooting with me while im traveling
just let me know

im only contacting a few photographers ^_^ so feel lucky

Hi Michael! I'm going to be getting my own website soon showing off some of my work and I would love to put some of your images on it! I would be making NO PROFIT off of the pics, it would just be another place to show off my work other than mayhem. You would, of course, be fully credited for your work. Let me know if this is cool with you!
