NOW BACK IN LA!!



I DO NOT PAY FOR SHOOTS!! I do, however, accept Select TFP with models that have a look that I do not currently have in my book, or that I contact about wanting to shoot with.  Mostly, I prefer to shoot with experienced models, but will shoot with "newbies" if I see potential in their look and ability to bring character to their images.  This is more than just a creative outlet or hobby, it's my JOB!



!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a wardrobe stylist account for those who like the outfits from my photoshoots and would like to have me spice up yours too, check out J U N K -

FOR THOSE WHO KEEP MISSPELLING IT -

I spell Risqé without the u, and here's why:

ris·qué
adjective
daringly close to indelicacy or impropriety; off-color.  Syn. - broad, gross, indecent, ribald

Risqé Factor
adjective
bold; courageous; intrepid; adventurous
a style of photography that is not afraid to push the limits of creativity and sexuality
a creative edge in vision or concept
the willingness to continually step out of a "type" and endeavor a style that is continually changing and progressive

My style is NOT Risqué, or raunchy.  It is my OWN definition; ever changing and challenging; attempting to adapt and progress towards whatever "style" that is needed or fits the theme of whatever concept I am photographing.  PLEASE SPELL IT RIGHT!

A BIT ABOUT ME:

I began in film working as a PA, and then a grip, working on various independent films before taking a job at Warner Bros in their DVD department as a Production Coordinator on all Domestic and International DVD release titles starting with 'City of Angels' up until I left, with my final project being 'Matrix Reloaded'.

After starting Elasians in 2000, I began building model portfolios and running a website on the weekends until I left WB and moved onto doing more frequent freelance photoshoots, starting Xotiquex in 2002 and then Risqé Factor in 2003.



***  I won't be stereotyped and am always eager to try a different style!  I believe that a varied portfolio is the true test of a creative and diversified photographer and I continue to strive to be both.  I am always eager to try something new and am always open to ideas and themes that are different than my already extensive portfolio.  Got an idea?  Hit me up...

-- Chad

In the words of the prodigious Calvin and Hobbes, that I think truly reflect my personality:


Calvin: I'm a genius, but I'm a misunderstood genius.
Hobbes: What's misunderstood about you?
Calvin: Nobody thinks I'm a genius.

Calvin: You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood... Last minute panic.

Calvin, sitting at his "A Swift Kick in the Butt, $1" stand: I don't understand, everyone I know needs what I'm selling!

Calvin to Hobbes: "You know Hobbes, some days even my lucky rocketship underpants don't even help."


On a more serious note...

TO ALL THE GIRLS I'VE LISTED

In my searches through MM, I have encountered many beauties, each with a look that is truly unique and beautiful.  I have created a number of lists which all of them fall into in one way or another, each with something stunning that caught my attention and left me amazed...  But of all the models I have come across, I have found a particular group that have always awed me and left me breathless, and so I decided to dedicate a special LIST just to them, for all the ravishing 'Ravens' out there, be it their first or last name, you are all incredible and here's to you!
