** Please Note : I have chronic migraines. It can and does make it difficult to maintain scheduling. Unfortunately this is just a part of who I am now. **

I am an artist, model, and photographer. Portrait photography has been my focus since 2009. My photographic specialty is Infrared Photography with a focus on Infrared Portrait Photography. I am capable of working in many genres of photography (fashion, glamour, artistic, nude, implied, etc), but I tend to be more "artsy" then anything else. I work with studio lighting/strobes or natural lighting.

So there is no misunderstandings : I am not a professional photographer, I do not make my income from photography or art. I am an artist. Art is not something I do, it defines who I am. My main medium is photography. I'm very good at what I do. I do it for ART.

I have not uploaded much of my new works onto any media platforms, including my website. FB has the most new stuff and even that is a rare upload. Why? Laziness, busyness, migraines and of course plain olé' fashioned I don't feel the need to. I make art for me.

Working With Me :
I love working with models (male or female) and enjoy creating and collaborating. I work with models of all experience levels. If you like my work and want to work with me, lets start up a communication. I encourage viewing my photography website if you are interested in working with me and viewing the "people" galleries as it will give you a better idea of what I do. I take nudes or "implied" nudes with those who want to.

Posing for me is not like you see in the movies, flash flash flash click click click. Fluid posing does not work for my infrared camera nor for my creative brain. I take about 150 -300 images in a 3 hours session, double that if I am also taking color images.

TF (trade for/time for) : I offer TF on a limited basis and only with folks that understand my migraine issues. Migraines don't schedule with me, they just show up and they make image processing painful and take much longer than I would like. It might take several months to process a photoshoot.

Paid Sessions (I pay model) : I have a limited budget for paying models, but because of the above migraine vs editing issues sometimes it's just easier all around. If I pay the model, then I do not promise images. I will likely give the model images from the session eventually but it may be a while before I process those images.

Hiring Me / Paid Sessions (model pays me) : As much as I would love to be able to guarantee a reasonable turn around time to final images, unfortunately I cannot. So I don't really take on sessions where the model pays me.

Escorts are ALWAYS welcome.

I require a signed model release unless you are hiring my services.

Wardrobe: Sometimes the wardrobe that people bring does not work out in infrared, so I have wardrobe, fabrics and curtains. You'd be surprised how many times I have folks wearing curtains as a gown.

Best contact method is model mayhem message until we're worked together. However, MM has changed messaging policies, so if you want to work with me we may have to MM friend first.

I am on Model Mayhem, Model Society, FB and I have a website.
I am NOT on Instagram, tumbler, or any of the others.
