About Me
I am a trained actor with a flair for the dramatic. Looking to build my creative muscle and find in image what the eye misses. I am constantly learning and always open to new ideas. Each model I shoot has given me new vision and ideas. My photo shoots are never a one way fits all technique. If the model wants to try something new absolutely let's do it! I have taken some of my best shots that way. I bend toward tasteful and elegant rather than shock value or cheap sexiness. Love to do outdoor shoots especially in places of decay and abandonment. Not sure why, just perhaps the juxtaposition of unwanted and new life. NC certainly has no shortage of such archaic backdrops. Always looking to shoot. Hit me up and let's talk.
*** OK, NOW FOR MY RULEBOOK. PLEASE READ ***
PRO MODELS-
I am not (yet) a fulltime photographer. This, right now, is a side gig I do and I don't pay nor do I expect to be be paid to do it. I do strictly TFP, although if a lengthy car trip is involved I have no problem paying for lunch or gas money.
Please do not contact me with offers to shoot for crazy rates. I of course understand and respect that there are models who do this full time and pay their bills by modeling, but I am not in a position right now to pay anyone $145/hour.
MODELS I HAVE NOT WORKED WITH BEFORE -
If you are not willing or able to abide by the following that's ok, I just won't be working with you.
1.) All models, regardless of experience level, are expected to arrive promptly at the designated time and place of the shoot.
2.) All models MUST provide a phone number and MUST confirm their intent to arrive for the shoot within 24 hours of shoot time.
3.) All models are asked and required to sign a model release form.
4.) If you do not arrive for the shoot as arranged without notifying me of your cancellation at least 24 hours before, or have one hell of verifiably good excuse, you get blacklisted. Photographers talk amongst ourselves and names of unreliable models are frequently exchanged. Trust me when I say you do not want to be the topic of discussion.
YOU ARE NOT GETTING HIT ON -
Just because it needs to be said, I am here to make great photos, not find a date. I've already got that covered.
ESCORTS -
I prefer female models I work with for the first time to come escorted to the shoot. I don't require it, but I think it's a professional courtesy particularly when shooting nudes or controverial subject matter. It's for the models peace of mind and mine. Models with whom I have an established relationship should feel no need for an escort unless he/she desires it. I also will absolutely require an adult escort for anyone under the age of 18.
FRIEND REQUESTS -
I do not automatically add anyone who asks to my friends list. I will not add anyone who is just looking to advertise their services and who I will never work with. Also know the same applies for my Facebook Page. So please don't take it personally if I reject you.
WHEW!!
Ok, thanks for reading, boring, strict business talk is done.
ONE LAST THING -
Have FUN. I am very easy to work with and I promise to keep you relaxed and probably even laughing through the shoot. In spite of my rules I am quite a funny guy who takes serious pictures. So if this sounds good get in touch and let's get snapping!
