I  just want to take pictures that will be remembered.  I like shots that  make me feel something, either emotionally or physically, so I try to do  the same when I shoot. 
 
I hate performing under pressure, so  the more you organize and make a production of a shoot, the worse I will  be.  I'm laid back and relaxed, and I like everyone involved with the  shoot to be as well.  You think better when you're at ease, so chill  out, relax, and just let the shot come to you.
 
For the next few  months, I will be focusing on Composite photography and maybe some ads  here and there.  Have a great idea?  Lets shoot it!

I look for three things in a project: 
     1.) Compelling work
     2.) fun client
     3.) astronomical fees

However, to have a successful project, I really only need two out of three.
For  example, I’ll do great work with fun people for nothing and still feel rewarded. Or, I’ll do great work for a mean, stupid client for  outrageous money. Or, I’ll do boring work with somebody I like a lot for  more money than one can imagine. Anytime I’m faced with only one of the three it’s time to rethink the relationship. Actually, it’s time to  move on.

I work at M2, an Ad Agency out of Greensboro,  NC.I design advertisements, websites, logos for all types of  businesses.  I run model calls for ads sometimes, so keep in touch! See my work on istock.
