General Information

I am motivated by the technical and artistic challenges of photography: it is is my passion and obsession.
I have an unapologetic appreciation of feminine beauty, and I enjoy the experience of working with other creative and enthusiastic people.

Experienced working with models with all levels on paid, trade and fun/experimental projects; I live and primarily shoot in the San Jose / San Francisco Bay area, but I also travel to New York, Hawaii, Arizona, Las Vegas, and Southern California.

My work has appeared in print and has been sold as fine art.

Commercially available for:
+ clothing/fashion advertising or catalog shoots
+ editorial
+ model/actor head shots
+ model starter portfolios
+ web sites
+ product photography

Personally hireable for:
+ portraiture
+ maternity
+ engagements/couples
+ boudoir

I shoot in a professional studio downtown San Jose, my home/loft, and on location.
I use professional cameras, lenses, lighting, and software and prefer to work with MUAs and stylists whenever possible.

Rates vary depending on the project, but I always deliver exceptional value. Describe your project to me and request a quote.

---------

Why I am here:
Looking for opportunities to work with talented models, photographers, and stylists and improve my skills as we complete beautiful projects together.

My work is inspired and influenced by fine art, high fashion, glamor and erotic.

Always open to trying new ideas and styles.
I also shoot boring things like landscapes, classic cars, sunsets, and architecture.

+ willing to help new models build their portfolio
+ may be willing to work TFP
+ will shoot events (not weddings!), performers, musicians, performance artists
+ will shoot for your website, catalog, or promotional materials
--------

Your time, experience, expertise, and talent is worth something, and so is mine.
It should not be surprising to find good quality accompanied by a fair price.

I believe getting satisfactory results requires hard work from both sides of the camera, but the experience of that work should be both fun and rewarding.
---------

chaperone policy:
I am flexible with chaperones/escorts but please note:
+ you should discuss your desire to bring a chaperone with me before we shoot. If you show up with someone I didn't know was coming, that person will not be allowed to stay.
+ I do not permit boyfriends/fiances/husbands at photo shoots. They can drop you off and pick you up; I'll shake their hand, look them in the eye and guarantee that you'll be safe and respected, but before we begin working, they gotta go.
---------

regarding TFP:
I enjoy working TFP when I have the time and am always willing to help new models start their portfolios, however I receive so many requests for TFP that I am now asking for a small fee of $50 to help cover my studio rent and other expenses.

+ you will get the agreed upon number of professionally retouched images ready for use in your portfolio within the time promised
+ I used to refuse all requests for unretouched images, but in the interest of helping models improve, I am now willing to provide low res versions with a large PROOF watermark. If you want a CD the same day, bring a blank with you.
+ I require models to sign a TFP release/usage agreement which specifically outlines what the photos may and may not be used for. It's good for both of us.
Ask me about it and I will send you a copy to preview.
+ If we're shooting anything sexy or nude I will need a copy of your ID as proof of age. It is required of me [i]by law[/i].
Look up 18 U.S.C. Section 2257 for an explanation.
