Photography...

Journal Entry: Mon Oct 22, 2007, 8:17 PM
I prefer to shoot mostly edgy art semi nudes/nudes...prefer location shooting using only existing natural lighting conditions...you have to have a well trained eye to figure all that out...not that I do...but I am learning each and every time I shoot how to see things thru the camera vs. what my naked eye sees in reality. I prefer to do as little post processing as possible with my images so typically you will see the natural skin...tones...texture etc.
All this in itself challenges me to take better images...and the beautiful models I work with to take real life environments and try and turn the norm into...the...sub norm.
I am constantly looking for locations that are interesting...and adventurous models to shoot these locations. Most of the time the location shooting thing is not soo comfortable...having to deal with the environment/elements.
I have a studio...but...that gets boring.
I have that 'day' job syndrome...so photography is a creative outlet for me...from that vanilla world.
Though my 'day' job is literally out of this world.
Worst is that I rarely plan my shoots....they are sort of ...show up with whatever...and try and make something out of it all.
Maybe I am a little lazy.
I need to improve that aspect....

Hey there, I love your gallery. I was wondering if you would let me use one of your images for a picture that I am doing. It would be featured here only on DA, and you would be credited as the photographer of course. Here are examples of what I do... [link]

Just let me know if I can use one of your pics.
Thanks,
Dan

Pixie is very cool. She is also quite the chameleon...she can change her looks radically by just how she applies her makeup.
She has great 'face'.....killer eyes and lips.
Beautiful in a unique way!
Thanks for the compliments!

Of all the models in your extensive gallery, I have to say that Pixie is my personal fav. Her alabaster skin is absolutely flawless. I hope you do more work with her i the future. Keep up the awesome work.

Canon Xti and the Nikon D80 are essentially the same camera...both great....Canon cheaper. most of my images were shot with the Canon XTi.
