About Me

Hi, I'm William Kelly & I've been a photographer for many years. my main photography interest is Glamor / Photo-Art and the female form. Some photogs shoot flowers, cars, clouds, etc... and that's cool, personally I find people to be the most fascinating and interesting subjects on gods green earth, and with that said there's nothing more beautiful than women. Photography is my expression of art, I'm not interested in taking pictures..... I am committed to creating gallery quality work, and I'm getting closer everyday. I shoot with a full frame Nikon D800 & I shoot RAW, that means that you will receive huge, high-def files that print to wall size without pixelation. Also, I'm not here to date anyone, I'm here to make artistically beautiful Photographs. Maintaining a professional relationship is important so that we can grow as collaborators. My best shoots have come from our second & even better our later shoots as we begin to explore our ides further, begin to understand our best angles & direction as artists. One last thing, there are several photographers that want to have a sit-down and discuss the aspects of the upcoming photo-shoot..... Not me, I have no interest in blowing smoke in your face or talking about my work. Yeah, its a big deal with some photographers and models to go over every little detail before a shoot & that's great if its a paid shoot or a shoot we have allocated funding to. The thing is, the first shoot is more of a preliminary shoot to see if we can work together as artists. I have news for you.. We are artist!! . I spend at least 2 hours per portrait sometimes (more often than not) longer. You will receive high end work on your first shoot. However I would like to talk on the phone for just 5-10mins so we can coordinate the shoot. I am only interested in working with Focused individuals. We all have work/family/life that tends to get in the way of being creative, but no one is going to do it for us. My motto is " let's work with what we have in hand", meaning there's few reasons we can't shoot. If you're waiting for a special dress or fantasy location to happen, you'll probably continue having the same 5-10 portraits you started with. Life is short, lets work on our dreams today.

I love to shoot models and I am always looking to make the shoot different to capture your individuality. Non conformists please apply here! I am not phased by tats or scars etc. When I shoot someone that person is my #1 priority, presenting my subjects in a flattering, creative & artistic fashion is what I do. I've been blessed by having the opportunity to shoot some of the most beautiful women on earth & hope to continue having that gift.

I can often fit weekend and daytime shoots so please ask, I will work with you on your ideas and around your schedule. Our first shoot will last 1.5-2hrs, feel free to bring an assistant along as you'll need help with your wardrobe change(s), your cell, keys, purse, etc... Very Important, bring comfortable walking shoes to any shoot, heels are for the actual shoot time. there's no reason to walk uncomfortably. An assistant can help keep you focused on the shoot and feel comfortable.

I shoot with all types of model be they professional, 'first timers', 'girl next door' or the more extreme. We all have to start somewhere & that's why we're here. I've been on here for a few years now and am more selective of whom I work with. Yet I'm willing to help you expand your portfolio. My portfolio on Flickr has 800+ images.

My rates are $150 for the first hour, if you are on a budget and want to negotiate, we can. I will do TFP with serious models. If you're a photographer thinking models are going to pay you... Good Luck With That. My photo income comes from working with kids, couples, events and so on. There's several models that want paid assignments only, and that's fine providing you have an extensive portfolio. If you choose not to shoot nudes, my understanding is (what I've learned from other models) your income will come from trade shows, product ambassadors and such. Once again, when applying to the above gigs you'll need a real portfolio. Selfies and/or photos of you wearing the same outfit on half of your portfolio screams "red flag". Build your portfolio so you can get paid gigs. What's crazy for both of us is that regardless of how much work we have to show, a potential employer/gig will ask "What have you shot recently" .... show me. We have to work daily on our craft, I am and so are our peers.
