Consumate professional artist who is serious about his work so please no games. Only here to work, collaborate and network with creative artists who are looking to put together something unique. Not here just to take photos. Will usually create outfits, build sets, style models and do most of the artwork for shoots. It's not just about the photos.In love with the entire creative process and shoots to keep creative senses sharp by exploring and experimenting with other forms of visual art that adds to the photo. If you are serious about collaborating on creative ideas and producing interesting photos then let's schedule a shoot. Let's create photographs that explore art in ways that are fresh and new. If you are interested in anything that attempts to dust off conformity and test the limits of photographic art then I would love to work with you in creating something special. Let's connect.

ONLY SHOOTING TFP at the moment except for magazine spreads or an advertisements. In those cases will only book you through your agency or management. However If you have a very specific look that I need for a concept shoot then will contact you about booking you at your rate. If you're a dedicated actress who is passionate about your craft by all means please feel free to let me know how that is going for you. Always open to finding new talent and sometimes book models that we shoot with in film and television projects as long as you're serious about your craft. If you're cool with that then let's build bridges.
