About me:
People have left comments calling me Master of Light. I don't know what to say. Just one day after a year and half of shooting it finally clicked, and i started to shoot differently. Either that or my strobe light broke, lol. But seriously, i've worked hard to understand lighting. Though there are many ways to light a model, i've have mastered the looks that you see now.

• I shoot on location not in a studio.
• I bring music to the shoot. It's for me, but you can listen too. :)
• I've been in 3 publications so i'm famous. Well, back then anyways.
• I have a 12 year old boy who is tired of me shooting him, lol.
• I don't claim to have 25+ years experience. I'm not that old.
• Believe it or not, photography isn't my full time job.
• I love models who are fun. It makes for a better shoot.
• I had Lasik done, I can see now.
• I can help you get your own website started so you can market yourself.
• I'm very easy to work with. Check my testimonials.
• I feed my models, but only after we finish our shoot. :)

• MUA is a must unless you're really good doing it yourself.
• Must be in good shape.

• Stats as indicated in your profile; age, weight, measurements.

• Dirty grease look in a shop
• Red Rock in Las Vegas
• I no longer care to shoot nudes unless it is for Playboy submissions.
• I still love to shoot implieds.

High quality image is your key to many bookings, not quantity. Glamour models that have shot with me get bookings, period. Whether you get paid depends on how well you sell yourself.
