Thanks for stopping by.  My name is Doug and photography is one of my passions.  I have been involved in photography for many years and have been doing portrait photography since 2008. 

THIS IS ONE OF TWO MODEL MAYHEM SITES: http://www.modelmayhem.com/DougLSmith (MM #739874) and http://www.modelmayhem.com/LaveenPhotography (MM #1077776).

YOU CAN ALSO SEE A BROADER RANGE OF PHOTOS ON MY FLICKR SITE: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cyclist451/ or

visit my new PHOTOGRAPHY WEBSITE: http://www.laveenphotography.com.

My first goal is to increase my skills as a portrait photographer and to build my portfolio.  Thanks to some outstanding models that I have worked with and whom I consider my friends, I have come a long way. 

A second and more important goal is to have fun at what I am doing and to do my best to see that the people I work with have fun as well.  I want my photo shoots to be a fun experience for everyone.

I believe that the photo shoot is a collaborative effort.  Some photographers imply that they do all of the work and models just pose.  I do not believe that.  The expression and feeling that you bring to a photo shoot is really what helps bring it together. I am always open to your thoughts and ideas about a shoot.  That is also why you get copies of all of the photos taken and all of the photos that I edit.  You worked every bit as hard as I did, so your deserve getting everything.

My photographic interests are broad. I suppose my people and portrature photos lean toward the category of Lifestyle photography; however, I also enjoy street photography, landscapes, cityscapes, nature scenes (flowers, birds, etc), and sports. Photography is my hobby, not a business. I am interested in working with anyone who is willing to model TF*.  Escorts are always welcome. 

If you are interested in having a fun shoot and/or have ideas for some great photos please contact me.

Feel free to send me a message here or preferably to my email address, [email protected].  If you have not contacted me before here at MM, please let me know that you saw my profile here.

Models That I Would Not Recommend:

Arizonas Juliet (MM #2186496) - Seems like a nice model and has a nice portfolio.  We got everything arranged for a photoshoot and then she quite communicating.  No explanations, good or bad.  She might work out for you but I felt she was unprofessional.

Jamie Valida Bourne (MM #2384063) - I had a photoshoot lined up with Jamie and another model for about a month.  We had set a theme, discussed wardrobe, and were all set.  Then she is a complete no-show with no explanation.  Not only did I make a 60-mile roundtrip but the other model had to arrange for childcare for her two kids.  I have since tried contacting her and she will not respond.  Very unprofessional and very rude, not only to me but to the other model.

rfelix (MM #2914780) - Arranged to shoot and then never followed up after repeated text messages and messages on Model Mayhem.
