I am a fine arts photographer. I teach photography at local institutions and workshops. My art can be seen at my web site....imagesbysteve.com  I was formerly a history teacher on Long Island and moved to Scottsdale 13 years ago.

****I was chosen as one of only 5 photographers of nudes from all of Arizona for a show "Overexposed". I have 12 pieces...6 b/w and the other 6 are my art.****

                  ******Please read ALL!! of the following.*********
  I am seeking nude models for my projects. All the art you see on my sites start as a nude photograph (see images in my portfolio for art examples). The pictures are NEVER sold to the internet or men's magazines or anywhere!! I only show my art in galleries, MM and Instagram.
    The abstract art you see are all nudes, printed on canvas 40 x 30. I am dong a lot of b/w and shadow work. At the end of the shoot,if you want, I can put all the images on the computer and you have total control to delete ANY images you don't like.

Any nude images on my sites are by permission of the model. Most of them are professional nude models and want their images shown. If you don't, that is never a problem!! It's all in the contract. Your nude images will never appear anywhere you don't want them to ..ever.

I am an artist and love the human form. I respect my models who honor me by letting me use their figures for my art..clearly I could not do it without them.
  . I will  let you pick a number of images which I will fix in PS and send to you for your use.They will be perfectly finished and sized (takes me about 25 minutes per image). On top of that, I also pay inexperienced models $100 for 2 1/2 hrs as I know the money helps and I don't believe nude work should be tfp,, just on principal. For those driving some distance in the Valley, I will also help with the gas..eg Cave Creek, Tucson, AJ, Goodyear,etc. For those more experienced, I will pay up to $150 for 2 1/2 hrs. I can host the evening of our shoot for traveling models.
 
Here at MM you will see that I have worked with many top models as they all want to be part of the art...that really needs to matter to you. I want my models to be creative and bright and hopefully artistic or who love art. If it's just a "job" for you then we probably aren't going to make the best art. I will give you as many references as you need.  Most important is to see that this will hopefully be a collaboration, so I desire very intelligent/special models.My work is NOT PORN! Never has been and never will be..love my models too much. I will never lie to you. I expect the same from you. I am not a fan of big fake boobs and a lot of ink, although I have done some suicide girl portfolios.I also love to do pregnancy series and madonna and child(3 months old) images.

  It seems unnecessary to say but it's not...if you can't make a shoot or change your mind, please treat me with the respect I show you and call and tell me you are not coming. Seems simple but on MM it's a pandemic, especially with new models. It's the professional and grown-up thing to do.
            Photographers!!! Write me and I'll give you more info.
I do not recommend the following models:
  #808763 Lessa.
  #752053 Nikki (Nicole)
  #516312 Adee Linn

Named one of the top ten best new artists in the Valley by the Tribune. First photographer ever reviewed in Arizona Foothills magazine. I have had shows in Santa Fe, Burbank, LA, Sarasota, Houston and Phoenix/Scottsdale. Currently in Artique Gallery in Scottsdale and Skyblupink in Burbank.
