I’m a semiretired ad shooter from San Francisco that now calls Toronto my home. Most of what I do now is art photography for large display prints, mostly female nudes in color or black and white with emphasis on form and line in uncomplicated settings that draw attention to the model. I don’t do porn. I share a small studio in the downtown area with another art photographer with similar interests.

Models I work with are always paid but must sign a release and produce proof of age. A large percentage of my commercial work was with large retail firms, such as Macy’s or manufacturers like White Stag,Puma and Speedo. Essentially it was young fashion so the models I choose to work with almost always fit this standard. Excellent hands and feet are a must.

I have also done lots of hair style shots for Wella and others. Another specialty I enjoy shooting are women’s shoes. I’m known as a relaxed shooter who is easy to work with and tends to keep models moving to music while I shoot, depending on my eyes for framing and composition. I occasionally work with inexperienced models who are trying to break into the business by developing a classy portfolio.
