I have assisted and shot with a number of well known photographers who are considered to be some of the best in their respected genres. 

Looking for models, both experienced & new, to create all types of images, in studio and on location, both nudes and non-nudes. I've shot a little bit of everything and I don't plan on focusing on any one style or type going forward, though I'll likely be taking some non-traditional portraits shots at some point in most shoots.

I will pay and/or trade with, all models based on experience and type/length of shoot. I always treat them with respect and professionalism and try as best I can to describe what the shoot will entail in advance. I do shoot both nude and non-nude and no one is ever asked to do anything that they're not comfortable with or weren't advised prior to a shoot. Models can always bring along a companion if they so wish & they are welcome to watch the shoot from afar, though I would ask that they be respectful and remain quiet and not involve themselves or their ideas while the shoot is taking place.

I have a large selection of clothes and props but I'm always open to suggestions or ideas if there's something you have that you feel may be useful.

For those of you who do retouching work- I most definitely appreciate your skills, abilities and your creative ways in taking something that may have once been useless and turning it into something useful, or even better, something that the photographer and/or model may now be proud in showing. Unfortunately, to my own detriment, I'm a pig headed purest. So outside of an occasional cropping and/or slight adjustment to light and dark settings, my shots are as they were when taken and that's the only post production that's ever applied to any of them. Nevertheless, I do appreciate the comments and feedback.

Thanks for your time and interest.
