Welcome to my profile. A bit about myself… I’ve always enjoyed taking pictures. My first camera was an old 1930’s Kodak Brownie box camera, which I got when I was five. As the son of an archaeologist, I developed a fondness for the old and sometimes forgotten corners of the world. I can normally be found happily snapping away in aging cemeteries in the Central Ohio area.

Over the years I have refined my technique through trail-and-error vs. formal education. I’ve never been one for "normal" mainstream photography. I'm a great fan of the works of photographer Simon Marsden (www.marsdenarchive.com). Although I would list Marsden as an influence, I have a style that is all of my own. I am always interested in how shadow, texture, and perspective can be used to make an image more interesting. I shoot what I like, and make no apologies about it. Over the last few years I’ve been blessed to find that there are a lot of like minded individuals out there that enjoy what I do. Since this is only an MM basic profile, I welcome everyone to visit my albums on MySpace (www.myspace.com/skullduggery13) to see a for a larger view of my work

I just recently made the foray into adding models as an element in my photography. I had been on the fence for a while, but have now taken an active interest in it and enjoy the expanded creativity that it brings. That being said, I'm not interested in doing glamour shots or anything of the like. There are some very fine photographers out there that do it well and enjoy it... Go to them if this is what you are after.

I'm looking for individuals who can show bit of attitude and have affinity for darker elements. I encourage my collaborators to bring their own creativity to the table. Just remember that I am not going to be pushed into doing something because someone with a diva complex "knows what I want" because they're an industry "expert". I've been down that road before and have never cared for the results. Regardless of whether the model is the focus or just an element in the photo, my overall intention is to create a lasting image that will invoke a thought or a mood.

I enjoy natural lighting and prefer to do location shoots. I don't do nudity, as a rule, unless it seems to really make the shot. At this time I am mainly doing portfolio work (TFCD/TFP), and some contract work for Blacque Widow Dolls. If you are interested in doing a shoot, provide me with an email and I will forward you a sample of my Model Release form for you to review.

Thanks for visiting my page,
