About Me
I am a dedicated artist whose medium is photography. My life is about seeing--through a personal eye--the beauty, wonder and strangeness of the world, and then creating images that reflect my vision. I’m represented by Robert Tat Fine Photographs in San Francisco. As a photographer I’m interested in a wide range of subjects: people, nature, dance, the human form, abstraction, etc. I’m here on myspace to interact with the artistic community, as well as to connect with potential models. Feel free to contact me to respond to my work, to share yours, or to suggest an artist-model collaboration. Though some of my work involves nudes, I do far more clothes-on than clothes-off work. More than anything I love to photograph beautiful, interesting, expressive faces, and to work with people who are passionate about creating. Because I do quite a bit of dance photography (I’ve worked with the S.F. Ballet as well as many modern dance companies), I’d love to hear from dancers as well. If you’re an aspiring model and I like your “look,†I might be willing to help you develop your model portfolio. My photo-shoots are intense, stimulating, and lots of fun (so they say). If we do a shoot together, I have no problem with your bringing along a friend (or boyfriend, parent, bodyguard, therapist, agent, body-double, mini-you, personal slave, etc.). If you happen to be under 18, I’ll need to know you have parental permission and, of course, nudity in any form is out of the question. Since some photographers aren’t too reliable about providing finished product (prints, scans, etc.), you should know that I am. If you’d like to see some of my recent work with models (both professionals and non-professionals), check out my portfolio at Modelmayhem.com, where you can find me by name or by member number (102330). By the way, if you’d like to get other peoples’ take on their experience working with me, feel free to contact models I've worked with among my myspace friends below: Little Wing, Kelsey, Emakhet, or Cyra.
