F.A.Q

01. Will you work with me/my band/etc

Yes, I'm always keen to hear from new individuals/bands, e-mail or call me with your idea or project and I will get back to you asap.

02. What are your rates?
Please get in touch for details.

03. What gear do you use?
A pretty big selection of gear that I've beaten up and still works!!

04. How did you get that effect? can you tell me?
Check out my technique eBook available over at www.threesongrule.com

If you are asking me how I do my promo/portrait work? Don't even ask!

05. Are you looking for assistants/interns?
No, I have a team I can call upon, do not get in touch with me regarding this - all e-mails will be ignored.

06. Can I use any of your pictures for anything?
No, reproduction of my images is strictly prohibited, I wouldn't run the risk either - I'm a big guy!

07. Can you take a look at my photos/profile?
Sadly I can't, I am so busy from day to day that I just don't have the time to check out other peoples shots, any e-mails asking for advice etc will simply be ignored.

08. Can you help me with my uni essay / coursework?
No, I'm sorry but I don't have time, if I do it for one person etc etc...sorry but it's a busy life! Any e-mails regarding this will be ignored.

09. Will you work for free or credit?
No, I never have and never will, please don't ask as refusal will offend.

I'd like to meet:

Bands, models, wedding couples, potential clients, agencies, people who may need photos!

Music:



Endorsements
Please note I don't take endorsements from companies, I want to be known for my own success rather than leeching from others.
