Best to reach me via my photography profile at the moment:
http://www.modelmayhem.com/231896

I've mostly done work as a pinhole photographer, filmmaker, painter and I've done some acting. I thought it might be fun to do some modeling now. I did a little bit years ago when I was in art school for friends' projects, usually crazy stuff that they couldn't get anyone else to do. I liked that it got me outside myself....I found that I was able to be more creative by doing this kind of thing, because it helped me get past fears, shyness, etc- blocks that could interfere with my own creative process....

I'm more interested in experimental, punk or crazier type stuff, so let me know what you want to do and how I can help you. Also am very interested in collaborations with other models.

Anyone doing old fashioned polaroid, pinhole, Holga or other experimental photography would be of particular interest to me as well.

Also just to mention- I have two tattoos. One is a blue rose on my left upper arm, the other (on my lower right arm) is the Chinese character wu which means nothingness.
