About Me

I’m always doing things I can’t do.  That’s how I get to do them. ~ Pablo Picasso

Please visit my website for photo samples.

My name is Vitus Feldmann and while I have a colorful professional background, I am basically a retired banker that got the idea to create an art business. So I turned into a photographer and artist and create, buy and sell art.

Here on Model Mayhem I am looking for professional models for photo shoots. Professional models means models with a professional attitude that understand why they are hired and operate accordingly. In return they get paid and will be treated with the utmost respect and professionalism. In addition, if we can work together, this is an opportunity for more shoots down the road. 

The genres I am shooting are portraits, art portraits, glamour, art nudes, big nudes, provocative and outrageous nudes, erotic art and athletes in art. Because of these genres, the majority of my shoots are of explicit nature. A look at my website will give you an idea of how the resulting art looks like and how I work explicit photos.

I am not an Instagram, OnlyFans, Pornhub or other website photographer. I do photo shoots to have photos that I can use for my art and then commercialize. Therefore, I require a model release for all paid shoots. My release cannot be altered, changed or restricted. Likewise, for the reasons above, I will not hand out photos to the models. All images and the resulting art stay with me.

Before I book any photo shoot, I require a phone call. I use the phone call to find out if we have common ground and if it makes sense for us to work together. If we do, I will summarize what we agreed on in an email so that both of us have a reference. Once the model confirms the email, the shoot can be booked. I am aware that a phone call is a no-no for some models, however, no phone call, no shoot.

If the above makes sense to you, please let me know and I will send you more info about shooting with me, some mood boards and my contact info. If you need additional (in addition to those in my profile) references, please let me know as well.

I take my work and photographing people very seriously. Especially since most people I photograph are naked and often in provocative poses. Safety and clarity around the photo shoot is a must and I make every effort to make sure both is provided. If none of us is comfortable during the shoot, there won’t be any good photos. Unfortunately, the industry we are working in can be very unprofessional. Photographers that have “other ideas” than taking photos and models trying to “pull one off” the photographers seem to be common. I had my share of not so nice experiences and that made me structure the photo shoot part of my work. The professionals I am working with appreciate that and that they are coming back for more or less regular photo shoots tells me that I am on the right path.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Other than that, I look forward to hearing from you and hopefully working with you soon.

"It's difficult to express in this little box, all the wonderful attributes this photographer has. The moment I first walked into his studio, I knew he was special. All models that have the opportunity to work with him should be extremely grateful. He changed my modeling perspective by a long shot and I can't thank him enough. He is professional in every manner, quite the gentleman, and he will make you feel not only 100% comfortable at all times, but at ease and relaxed throughout the entire shoot. NYCiPhoto photography ethics are impeccable." Read less

"I am increasingly thankful for VItus' patience and perseverance with each shoot we have under our collaborative belt. After a break in communication approximately a year ago (my fault), I found a message from him in my inbox recently and the odds are finally in our favor as we approach Shoot 3 in just under two months this coming weekend. He is a considerate fellow European with nothing but the model's comfort at the top of his priority list. His brazen choices in location and time of day (or night) provide for some hilarious anecdotes, but his concepts are well-executed, guaranteeing priceless artistry as a result. Equally delighted and amazed that he did not give up on bringing our shoots into reality, I strive to ensure it is not a decision he will ever find regrettable." Read less
