About Me

I am a creature of light.
I gravitate towards the whimsical, the outrageous, the cheeky, the "WHOA!! is that? Wow!", the beautiful, the sensuous. 
Even in the dark, the light defines my world and imagery.
My portfolio is a sample of what interests me.
I am constantly exploring, seeking the new and cool, testing my skills. I only have three rules; no one gets hurt, no one gets arrested, no one gets dead.

I'm always on the look out for outrageously talented nude art models (female and male), MakeUp Artists, Stylists and Digital Painters to collaborate on projects. 


I'm a partner with the PhotoCoop studios located in Little Falls, NJ. I prefer to do studio work  there. The studio has multiple shooting spaces and is located conveniently to public transportation from NYC.  I also will shoot on location in the tri-state area as projects require.

Would you like to work together?

Message me here or email me: [email protected]


Fine Print:


If I hire you for a shoot, I will share some images with you. Sometimes I will ask for your choices when I am torn between several equally awesome shots and other times it will be my choice. Selected images are uploaded to a Dropbox in full resolution and reduced size (Model Mayhem friendly)  jpegs for your use.

New: If you do not have a current unfiltered head shot and full length picture here (or on other social media pages) and choose not to provide one on request, and your looks are materially different upon arriving at a shoot, it is at my discretion whether to cancel the shoot immediately with no further  renumeration to the model.
Photo filters, IG plug-ins, AI apps and the like are powerful tools. They certainly have their place in the digital age, particularly if you are a self shooting content creator. I get it.
But when you are being hired in some part because of your physical looks (energy and personality are huge contributors to subsequent shoots...but hard to ascertain before meeting the first time) and the you who shows up doesn't look like your online image, what am I to do?
I request models sign a standard professional release for all shoots.  I grant models limited rights to use the finished images I provide for their portfolios, personal websites, FB, IG, Twitter, Tumblr, Flickr, Self promotion, etc. as long as photo credit is given whenever practical. 

If the model wishes to use the images on Patreon, OnlyFans or other commerce sites all I ask is that our images are not ppv or behind any additional paywall beyond the normal monthly subscription fees of your page..
All other rights remain the photographer's.
I am happy to provide high resolution images for publication with a negotiated fee. I offer gallery quality prints on request.

Thanks for looking at my page.  I hope to create with you soon!
