About Me

!!! NOW IN LOS ANGELES!!!

I've been a professional photographer for 13 years (plus 4 years starting out, building a portfolio and style), and have done over 15,000 Photoshoots with over 50,000 clients.

My rate for a 4 Look shoot is $400 and includes:

*Optional Wardrobe Styling
Blu Ray/DVD of ALL High Resolution Images + (10) Retouched Images

You are welcome to hire your own makeup artist for your shoot, or allow me to find a makeup artist whose style I think best reflects the style and themes I plan for each model, and may have previously worked with. Please understand, I invest up to 20-30 hours per shoot, developing a creative style I think suits the model, or is tailored to what the model is most wanting to have shot, which may include some wardrobe styling (all images crediting 'JUNK Wardrobe' are tailored for each model and stylized by me) and finding locations to shoot, plus the time editing the shots I take. Makeup Artists invest money into the makeup they use to create the look that makes each set that is shot unique, and the hair accessories or tools they use to style hair to fit that theme. Please respect that and not question our need to charge for our services.

From time to time, I bring on MUA's who are looking to enhance their portfolio and are willing to do TFCD. Please indicate if you are seeking a professional makeup artist (and are willing to pay the rate they charge), or someone who is also starting their portfolio and might do TF to enhance both yours and their portfolio.

I love doing shoots, but they do take preparation, time and money, this is not just a hobby, this is a job, and after 17 years (13 professionally, 4 years starting out) and 15,000 photoshoots, my portfolio is a good reflection of what to expect.

A BIT ABOUT ME:

I began in Hollywood working as a PA, and then a grip, working on various independent films before taking a job at Warner Bros as a Production Coordinator in their DVD department, on all Domestic and International DVD release titles starting with 'City of Angels', up until I left, with my final project being 'Matrix Reloaded'.

After dabbling in photography in 2000, as more than just a hobby on the suggestion of professional models whom I knew and had encouraged me to venture forth, I began building model portfolios and running a website on the weekends until I left WB and pursued photography full time in 2003.

Just 4 years ago, I left California and relocated to the Philadelphia/Trenton area, where I have conducted a multitude of photoshoots for various modeling schools and agencies. I am planning to return to LA in summer of 2015, so if you'd like to setup a shoot, now is the time to inquire!
