I love threads like this because they expose me to a wonderful variety of looks from other shooters......always something new to try.

You're another example of another very good photographer who is probably capable of anything, but I'm just not seeing that one photo in your port for this particular list.

Maybe I need a new list... "Photographers who consistently kick ass".

I am very flattered.  Thank you very much!

Yes, you have very solid lighting. A few of your photos remind me of my own lighting style.

Another model here, but I'd be happy to have you look at my port. I'm lucky to have shot with photographers who've done beautiful things with lighting.

You definitely have worked with some excellent photographers, and your modeling is great. No images jump out as being right for this particular list, though. Sorry.

I LOVE the Cowgirl Bride photo at the top, but none of these are quite what I am looking for for this particular list. Lots of great work in your port, though!!

Ok, first of all, I am not qualified to comment on your work to say anything more than I love it!

I listed 2 images, but I could literally list all 133. Your lighting is that good.

I only wish you could provide a lighting diagram, camera settings and a behind the scenes video of all of your shoots. Your work is the kind that I aspire to. BRAVO!

Thank you for your comments.  I don't keep details on the lighting I use for each shoot.  But I can usually dissect a shot and share ideas on how to get something very similar.
