Hi! I'm an unencumbered, simple woman who tends to see beauty in [everything & everyone].

I view the art of photography as a subtractive process, a distilling of reality into a personal vision. As such I often use the tools of modern photography
different digital means, filters, enhancement, editing, etc.
to try to capture in an image the emotions I felt at the moment I tripped the camera's shutter.

From time to time I'm called a professional although I will never feel that way about myself since I am ever changing, learning, growing, and gaining experience any way I can.

I have not ventured into the wonderful world of photography to make a name for myself.
It's really quite lucid... I love what I do.
I will take photos of anything, anyone, anytime.
Period, the end.

[:If we shoot TFP:]
* I am very selective on who i shoot TFP with, don't hesitate to inquire
* I editorially select what I think are the best shots.
* I'm also happy to let you choose some favorites
* I professionally edit all chosen images
* I provide final work to all involved as high-res JPGs by email within 7 days
* You will be credited on ALL shots regardless of where they are posted
* There is no cap on number of images you will receive. I've submitted anywhere from 2-30 shots, it all dependents how well we do together.

[:Specifically Interested In:]
* Walkabout shoots using available light on location esp if it is abandoned!
* Studio shoots with dramatic lighting setups
* Anything creative or out of the ordinary

[:Shoots:]
* Sessions usually run between one and three hours although I'm not opposed to a full day outing with the right folk
* Clothing, styling, and poses are model's choice unless we have discussed otherwise
* Willing to experiment with a range of ideas
* Two-way communication is key. It will be a collaboration, not dictatorship.
* Escorts are OK, provided they don't distract from the work.

[:Availability/Scheduling:]
* Just moved to California and looking to meet some new folks. Will travel all of LA and Orange counties, even further if you have an amazing spot
* Mon, Wed Fri after 3pm and most weekends

[:Things I Won't Do:]
* I will not provide you with a CD of all images unless its a paid shoot or you have purchased the copyright.
* No pornographic shoots
* I will not accept friend requests unless we've worked together

[:If you'd like to schedule a shoot:] Please come to the table with an idea, theme, location or concept. I love working with creative minds and am finding less and less people to connect with on that level. If you're having some trouble coming up with something you can head to my list "Concepts TLS Photos would enjoy trying" or give me a shout out and I will send you a slew of things I've been dying to try!


Even if you don't want to work together I enjoy meeting all kinds of people from all different walks of life. Swapping stories, sharing experiences or even just to say hi.
People with creative minds and free spirits are always welcome in my world...

I would like to thank and also highly recommend the following folks. Not only are they talented, but a pleasure to be around and very comfortable to work with.
Please feel free to use me as a reference, I'm a no holds bar kinda gal.
