Generally self-taught the whole way since 2001, I strive to make myself better however possible by reading and practicing constantly!  Through my personal training I've managed to win a couple of private contests for my works.

Admittedly, I'm no expert (and certainly not a pro...yet), but my intention here is to find people who would be willing to allow me to learn from them and work for them however possible too.

I've found a great sense of ease in being able to retouch and manipulate photos.  This means I generally don't charge people at this point given that I feel I still need a lot of practice and experience.  This might prove to be a mistake to admit this, but it's the truth.

Whether man, woman or anyone in between, I have no preferences when it comes to work. There's beauty in everything and everyone, it's my job to "frame the portrait," if you will.

When I started learning, Photoshop 7 started me out.  For a brief time I went to Paint Shop Pro, but feel most comfortable now working with Photoshop CS2.  Sure it might be considered outdated now, but that doesn't mean it's not a freakin' great program still!

Contacting me is really easy.  Please feel free to send me messages here or on MySpace, both get fairly quick responses.  I'd post my email but I'm anal about spam and very much respect the policies of MM.

*** PLEASE BE AWARE ***
Do NOT come around here fishing for comment exchanges!

I choose to comment if I feel that it is honestly deserved, not because you choose to have this as a "requirement." Make me go "wow," and I will let you know that you did!

Those whom I have worked with in the past include:

Fantine
Portland, OR based photographer and model

Julian Fantechi
San Diego based actor and famed fitness model

Johnny "2.0" Raymond
Los Angeles based performance artist and model.
