After running a full time studio for more than two decades my photography work has now shifted to a focus more on fine art work as well as visual stunning and socially powerful statement work. If I contact you it is because I am working omg a passion project and you have a look that I want to collaborate with. I am very selective about what I pick the camera up for and have to be genuinely passionate about it to begin a project, so if we work together I hope you bring the same passion so we can create something magical.

I will NEVER object to having you bring an escort with you as long as they are willing to help out when asked and are not a distraction while photographing.  I regularly work on magazine projects and am always looking for amazing talent and when we find someone that we love working with we use them for projects regularly.  I define "love working with" as easy and quick communication, shows up on time for shoots and pre-shoot meetings, NO DRAMA, takes direction well and has a great sense of humor.

TFP projects are very limited and must be mutually beneficial!  I have been in the industry for three decades so I am not developing my portfolio. I spend my year traveling the country lecturing to and teaching other professional photographers as well as judging and chairing International Print Competitions. Photography is my passion and if we work together your time won't be wasted.

If you are interested in developing your portfolio then contact me for rates.  I am happy to help you develop images for your portfolio that will bring you attention and that will work for all of your professional needs. 

If I contact you for a shoot you aren't part of a blanket reach out that I am doing trying to find models, it is because you have a very specific look that we think is perfect for a project that we are working on.  So if I contact you and the communication back to me is not quick or professional I probably won't contact you again.  Prompt and professional responses can often net you jobs in shoots that are getting published.
