I work with people of any age/gender/appearance. I mostly enjoy with models who are looking to contribute ideas to the photos. Models who fully immerse themselves in being the subject are also a dream to shoot. As far as content goes, I have no boundaries and have worked with allll sorts of wonderful humans, terrible creeps and exceptional weirdos.

I use a variety of cameras and traditional methods for developing. 99% of my stuff is on film. I pretty much totally avoid the old Pshop but if the need calls, eh. I'm flexible and not a luddite. I've practiced for years to get things right in the camera and in the tank and sitting at the computer is my idea of a good time.

For the most part, the people I have shot in the past have been close friends (for fun), professional models (for work) but I am curious to see if working with strangers would change the tone and themes ive been using.

As far as points of reference: nan goldin, fabio cianchetti (particularly 'the dreamers' [strangely huge influence], ryan mcginley, Matt Fry (he is a wizard i dont know how he does it) synchrodogs (to a degree..) margaret durow (who is amazing and everyone should know.) robert capa, walker evans (depression era photography en masse.) robert adams lewis baltz the becher's (new topographics etc) Guido van der Werve (top shelf, absolute favourite) dash snow (sort of ish)
