About Me

HEADS UP ....someone out there is passing themselves off as me and using an email and pirated photos from my sites with my name to recruit models and asking for explicit images and videos...... which is something I never do.
If I have not contacted you via  MM or my own website...then it is not me.

"Never allow others to define who you are, what they think of you is none of your business"  Deepak Chopra…..
The first thing is that I enjoy watching the evolution of photographers and models that post on MM. It's good to see the skill and creativity levels grow and evolve.
I prefer not to work with models with a purely capitalist agenda but rather with people that want the session to be a success as well.
Compensation is based on the quality of work portrayed in your portfolio.
If I contact you its because I have seen something breathtaking and stunning about your look. I always have specific images in mind when I contact someone and schedule a shoot. To be inspired by  the person I'm working with always helps.
My life guidelines are .....simple:
Have fun while we work hard. Endeavor to create worthwhile images.
Punctuality
I am all about concise and precise communication...unfortunately  one or two models  have found this not to their liking....oh well, life goes on.
No shows...the only excuses are if you were abducted by Aliens or won the lottery.If you were abducted by Aliens I really want to hear all about it..I just knew we were not alone the universe.
No.....you will not get a CD of ALL the images taken during the session, just a limited selection  after editing.
RAW image files are not provided only finished jpegs. Yes, I do retouch some of the images when needed.
No....I do not compensate for the time it takes to do make up ...with the exception if we are doing a shoot for a commercial client. If we are working together on a TFP basis, it is best to come with make up nearly done or there is a make up area in the studio to complete it or do touch ups / changes.
Be civil and respectful...I am..... and I expect the same.  Photographers and models both have unpleasant and drama stories for their memoirs about their photo sessions, I prefer not to add any more to mine or yours.
This is not a dating service... My wife and my studio MUA are both very protective.
Be trustworthy...do not touch my cameras or my equipment / lighting. ( I  have unpleasant memories about those events )
Civil conversations are encouraged and profanity is discouraged
Gossiping about other photographers and models is unacceptable.
Creativity is a must...without it..well then what's the point
I'm a good listener of creative input..if it is consistent with the goals of the session, good ideas and input are appreciated and given consideration.

Bring a companion if you wish, there is a waiting room.  They can watch a movie or read a book.
Alcohol or mind altering substances are not allowed in the studio.
Please feel free to contact those that have worked with me.
