About Me

Castings:
  - Alice Finds a New Southern Wonderland - brunette or redheaded Alice should be 5'7"+ and late teens or early 20's with expressive eyes and high fashion look; many African American roles, female and male.  Many unique scenes. 
- Classic Cars - on going - need a Jackie O brunette, many others and many choices of cars to fit your vintage look. 
- Fair Trade Hats - bright colors, very large brims, need solid bright sundress to match, multiple models, may be photographed on a Saturday early morning.  May appear in catalogue for boutique store.
- Jane Austen dress - an original by San Francisco Opera Costume designer, resembles the "Pride and Prejudice" / "Sense and Sensibility" look.  Must be tall to wear this dress.  Will appear on designer's website.
- Raleigh Al Fresco: patio restaurants in Raleigh for a website, including "pet friendly" patios if you have a photogenic dog! 

Please note all present castings are trades.  You will receive selected images in low resolution with water mark for online portfolio display and emails.  You will have access to make any number of high resolution prints at your own cost.  I will print only select images for you.  Because my collection may be put up for sale, a CD is not provided of the originals high resolution copyrighted images, but it may provide a chance for you to earn royalties.   

Initial Meeting:
  This meeting only takes about 1/2 hour.  It is critical to make sure you have the right foundation to match your skin tone and to coordinate wardrobe and props.  I get to see you in person which may give me an entirely different perception of how you photograph from the images in your portfolio.  We also get to be comfortable knowing one another.  You can review my print portfolio which has an entirely different appearance than MM.  I will not cast without this initial meeting! 

DRAFT WEBSITE HOME PAGE:  http://www.wix.com/femmefotog/draft

Sadly the tool bars remain in this format.  If you appear on my website please get in touch with me about how you would like your credits to appear.  You must have signed a release for your images to go up for sale.  If the images sell, you may receive a royalty outside of our trade agreement.  I do not have a royalty agreement established yet because I am at the early stages of marketing the photographs. 


* * * PROFILE BEING UPDATED * * *

I completed a fashion portfolio last year, in print, and achieved tear sheets for some of my models.  My website is up next, to better showcase my personal style.  I am focusing on using fashion to advance human rights, including catalogue for http://www.RisingInternational.com, which specializes in the crafts of women artisans surviving in war zones.  Add to that a penchant for hats and the look of the south, and on-going classic cars photo sessions.  My goal is to achieve tear sheets and build a working portfolio for you.  I will also be casting for saleable images as a part of this process which may involve royalties * * * *  STAY TUNED FOR NEW PICS * * * *

I love fashion and as a woman photographer, I enjoy "dressing up!"  My photographs will be different from a man's because I will capture your strength as a woman and how pretty you are in a way a man can not.  I am a good choice for underage models as my photographs will always be age appropriate.  (Underage models, you will need to involve your parents and bring them to the photo session.)  I could be the designated "block parent" of fashion photography!  I am presently focusing on fashion rather than commercial and wish to broaden and diversify my fashion portfolio.  I would like to begin to include male models as well.  If you are just beginning a portfolio, I can help you to build a working book and target agencies.  I have a fashion background so I often do the camera makeup and some of the styling.  Location sessions are my preference.  I especially love the evening light.  I would like to trade time with anyone whose style fits with mine.  I am open to photographing all varieties of subjects but I would please like to exclude the "starving girls" from my portfolio so as not to encourage tragedy in the modeling world.  If you are a size zero, please go eat something and get in touch with me later!
