I want only to photograph beauty in its human form. And after all these years, I've learned that even more important than beauty is the power of an image to be memorable. Most images of beautiful people are forgotten, when they are not also memorable. That's a bridge we must cross as model and artist, together, to be remembered.

If I ask to photograph you, it is because I am positive we can make incredibly beautiful images of you, together.

I believe communication is key to an outstanding session between an artist and model, so if possible, I always like to meet in person for coffee before we shoot. If that's not possible, then hopefully we can establish what we like, dislike, and mutually hope to accomplish during a session via email or phone.

I also believe art should be FUN. Or better yet, to paraphrase Nietzsche, "Philosophy should be serious business, but the act of philosophizing should be fun". That's how I feel about art (and philosophy lol!). We should always strive for the best image, but getting there should be an enjoyable experience.
