I have been photographing people since... well, before YOU were born - and I have been getting paid to do it since 1972 (see, it WAS before you were born ;) ). Yet, with every client, every model, every assignment I am still learning something new. Whether it's a lighting technique, the latest digital innovation in camera gear, or some nuance about human nature, there is always something new to learn every time I pick up my camera and get to work. I guess that's why it's called "practicing an art," because we never truly finish mastering it.

I have come to MM because this is a great place to make connections with serious professionals. That being said, I enjoy working with others of all experience levels, beginners and veterans, alike, as long as they are dedicated and have a good attitude. Skills can be learned, but an attitude is a hard thing to change. I pay well, but am also willing to work in-trade under the right circumstances and then, only with a clear, written agreement.

My preference is to focus on the natural beauty of the model, using subtle makeup and sculpting with light in order to find the right shot. I have established hair and MUA relationships, but I am also here to meet new artists, as well, and widen my circle of industry contacts.

My concentration for the near future will be on Lifestyle, Fitness, and Fashion photography with the end goal of landing steady work for agencies and publications. Finally, I am not single, and I don't want to be – so none of the work will be Lingerie/Erotic/Nude.

If I have sent you a friend request, it is because something in your portfolio caught my eye and I am interested in working with you. I will have made it clear in my message to you what it was that drew my attention and why I am interested in collaborating.
