My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Hello, I'm a serious, but fun, semi-professional photographer interested in going full-time in the future, & in helping ANYone experiment with photos, simple profile shots for fun, or aspiring models or actors needing portfolio shots, I'm very open & easy-going about it. My only rule is you've got to have FUN! I'm also interested in doing photos for engagements, weddings, families, proms, graduations, sports, pets, etc! Even if it..'s just to experiment with a photoshoot, or to use them on your profile, I like diversity, NOT just typical "model-types". I also love to do shoots for military families or couples who use the photos to feel closer while their loved one is away. Let me know if I can help. Rates are very afoordable & negotiable, & I..'m becoming much more selective with NO-cost shoots that I sometimes use to help strengthen my portfolios, experiment with new ideas, make contacts, & get future referrals, so please let me know if you might be interested. I give a CD of the shoot to use as you wish. I recently went to a digital SLR camera, it..'s so much quicker & easier to get the CD done & to you, privacy when needed, & reviewing shots as you do them in the field is great too.Thanks for your consideration. ***********NOTE*********** I am serious about developing my photography. I..'m a 20+ year veteran employee of the criminal justice system, so I understand the need for safety & discretion. I shoot on-location/in public, & always recommend that you bring someone along for your safety. I understand caution is a necessity, esp. with online contacts. I will only shoot with ages 18+ or with parental approval & chaperone. I will NOT ask for anything YOU aren..'t comfortable with, but I..'m open to YOUR ideas, mild to wild.

Music:

Newer rock mostly, but I like a lot of music styles. I just like GOOD music, lol. From Yellowcard to JayZ tto Nirvana. Most of my CD....'s are Rage Against the Machine!! Just saw them in concert in NOLA, awesome!! "Fukk you I won..'t do what you tell me!!" Then Jimmy Buffett in Atlanta, awesome!! "Yes I am a pirate, 200 years too late. Cannons don..'t thunder, there..'s nothin to plunder, I..'m an over 40 victim of fate, arriving too late, arriving too late." Also check out Amber Rose on my friends, local guys who are gonna be famous.

Movies:

Diversity again...from The 10 Commandments to Lethal Weapon. Forest Gump to The Ringer. Watched most over the years? Probably Lethal Weapon. Most recently watched movie? Ummm, wow, I need to get out more! Recent DVD purchases: Shooter, & Rage Against the Machine concert DVD. Wow, that's been a while too!

Television:

Hmmm, recently the only TV I watch is whatever is on the 18 TV's at Hooters!

Books:

Time to read?? I like the Rogue Warrior series by Richard Marcinko, anti-terrorism stuff. Photography magazines sometimes.

Heroes:

Jesus.
