Greetings one and all and thank you for stopping by.
My name is Ron and I like to take photographs. OK, it is more of a passion of mine and I hope it shows in my work. First off, this is not my job, ( I do not make a living from it), in fact, I do not charge for my work. This is something I love to do and share, why bring money into the mix.

OK, that being said, I do alot of TFP shoots but do pay models also for particular styles or themes of shoots. I shoot everything from nature/animals to more adult themes. I am not one of those "if you want to work with me, get undressed" guys, I look at the theme and direction of the shoot and determine if bare skin is needed.

A good friend and photographer I respect a great deal has taught me a very valuable lesson, concerning paying models and how to shoot models. My first shoot with a new model is always TFP, not because I am cheap either. Alot of people, including models and photographers, do not understand that it takes a certain amount of chemistry when working with models. The chemistry is not between myself and the subject, it is between the subject and the lens. When I shoot someone, they are not there for me, they are there for the camera. So, as I was saying, the first shoot is usually TFP to see if the model and the camera hit it off and want to work together again. Afterwards, shoots can be paid or might be trade for magazine submission or waredrobe, etc...

In the spirit of clear communication, I am going to list MY definition of different types of shoots. These terms and meanings will help make it clear when we discuss a shoot, so we each know exactly what is expected:

Casual - Jeans, t shirts, tank tops, shorts, outdoor wear. Anything you would wear to take a stroll in the park or up the trail.

Glamour - Dresses, skirts, heels, stockings, blouses. Something you would wear to go out at night. Tight fitting and some what revealing.

Swimwear - Bikini, Monokini, One Piece, covers and wraps. Just what the title says, what you would swim in. Maybe add heels for effect sometimes.

Lingerie - Bra and Panty sets, Cami's, Nightgowns, nightshirts, long t shirts. A combination of what you would either sleep in or buy to sleep in. Heels and stockings almost always. Very sexy and revealing but no nudity.

Implied - A simulation of topless or nude. Boyshorts, thongs, lace panties. Bare skin but not showing anything considered adult. No bare breasts.

Modified implied - Wearing fishnet or shear see through material. Breasts will be seen through the material but not bare.

Topless - No top but panties or shorts. Nude from the waist up.

Nude - No clothing. Could mean heels and stockings and gloves, but no clothing covering the main body. Posing is the same as if dressed, the focus of the photo is still on the entire model (especially the eyes). No body specific focus to the photos.

Erotic - Posing and clothing/nudity of an adult nature. More focus on certain body areas and could involve erotic poses that create a more adult feel to the photo.


I hope we can work together if you like what you see on here. Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss working together in the future.
