About Me

I have been involved in photography for a long time, but it’s always been a hobby and not a profession. My interest is in Digital Photography and Photo Manipulation, and I am interested in models that can look beyond their poses and into their imagination. I look at the photographing of a model as being a single brushstroke on a canvas waiting for the final picture to be created. Each shoot is different and evolves at we start working together. I have built my own studio designed for Chroma Key photography and video shoots so there is no background per say.
I have done shoots from a personal friends dog, a 9 year old riding a unicorn, a 18 year old implied nude with her mother posing her, a model that doesn’t shot nudes but wanted to do a special project that could only be shot in the nude but in the final creation she was covered (she is an MM member), to a friend who always want to do a shot in the nude but “had never found a photographer whom she could trust” (her words, not mine).
I am Dallas born, and Texas old school raised. I was brought up to treat ladies with respect and to always be a gentleman. For me, paying a model for a photo shoot does not mean one owns that model for that time frame. She is to be respected and treated as such. My late teens where in the late 60s when nudity was nothing to be ashamed of and a nude woman’s body was to be admired and not just a sex object. I honor my models wishes as to what I produce and put out there for others to see. I even have a protection clause within my contract. One of my first models laughed and coined it as the Sheron Stone clause (you have to be old enough to get that). I was married in 1971 and I am devoted to my wife.
Just some added notes, I have been a citified scuba dive sense 1967, shooting underwater pictures sense 1971 (35mm film), and underwater video sense 2007. I am also a videographer and although I have not shot a movie yet, I have videoed theater plays and produce video DVDs of those plays to be sold by the theater.
Model escorts are welcome if they don't bring in their own camera. Taking pictures with their cell phone is also not acceptable.
