Les Spielman- Bio

I am a working professional photographer for over 25 years. I had a studio in New York City for approximately 10 years where I specialized in Fashion and Beauty work along with product shots for major ad agencies. Jewelry and reflective products ( glass and silverware) with models were favored.

I also owned a company with offices in NY, Milan and Paris called International Color Cards that photographed and printed comp cards for some of the top model agencies and models.

After moving to the Ft. Lauderdale, Florida area I was a partner in a photography and offset printing company specializing in catalogue work. The shooting there was varied from fashion, cosmetics, clothing and all sorts of products (large and small). 35MM to 4x5 large format digital equipment was required for this type of work.

Six years ago I relocated in north central Florida in High Springs. I have a studio where I shoot catalogue and advertising assignments along with Beauty and Glamour shots for model portfolios. My studio is a stand alone building on a large farm, so indoor and outdoor settings are used as needed.

I am considered an expert in the use of Photoshop and retouching and have been using state of the art equipment on an ongoing basis for many years. I prepare digital files for offset or large format printing with the experience of a professional photographer and commercial, 4 color, offset printer so the files print correctly, the first time.

I am now in a location where there isn’t an abundance of model agencies and free lance models to work with, I am hoping that being a member of MM can open up the availability of quality models to work with and at the same time allow me to keep in touch with other photographers to view and keep up with new trends and the direction of photography in general. I consider this a very important aspect of my work and like to stay as current as possible to the state of the art.
