About Me
CURRENTLY EXCEPTING TFCD
I AM A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN PHILADELPHIA WITH YEARS OF EXPERIENCE; PRIMARILY IN WEDDING & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY. I'VE GOTTEN AWAY FROM THE WEDDINGS AND NOW INTO GLAMOR/FASHION, RUNWAY.
MY HOPES ARE TO NETWORK WITH INDIVIDUALS (Male/Female Models) IN THE INDUSTRY THAT ARE SERIOUS ABOUT CREATING A STRONG PORTFOLIO OR STRENGTHENING AN EXISTING ONE.
MAKE UP
There must be a MUA at every shoot...unless you prefer to bring your own, one will be provided at every shoot.
The fee for the provided MUA is a KIT FEE - $15.00
THE CD
In approximately 1 ½ weeks a CD containing all of the un-edited images from the shoot will be available for model to pick up. Model must pick up CD within 2 weeks after notification.
PHOTO EDITING
You may want some of the images on your CD enhanced or edited…if so, the charge is: $7.00 PER IMAGE.
Just let me know which jpeg file you want edited/enhanced along with editing instructions. Payment will be through Postal Money Order or Pay Pal. Payment must be received before editing begins.
Note:
After September TFCD will be very limited. However, an affordable Fee for services will be posted.

PLEASE READ!
Concerning Friend Requests
There is no other way that an Artist, Photographer, Model, Designer, MUA know how well he/she is doing in their craft other then receiving comments, compliments or constructive criticism. Having friends is nice however, I'm not interested in seeing just how many friends I can accumulate here on SM. So before you send a friend request, please send a pic comment, a tag, or list a pic. I'd like to know what you think of my work and I will extend the same courtesy to you. And of course the greatest compliment would be to request a shoot! Don't be afraid to ask...especially since I'm still offering TFCD. Thanks!
****************************************************************
BEGINNER MODELS! (Newbies)
Please read my profile to check out my requirements for shoot schedules...check out my port to see my style and determine whether or not you can see my style in your port. If you don't I can understand that...if you do like it, great. But if you don't and still want to shoot with me anyway, please bring your own ideas to the table. PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT TO THE SHOOT WITHOUT A CLUE AS TO HOW YOU WANT TO LOOK, THEN COMPLAIN LATER THAT YOU DIDN'T LIKE THE WAY YOU LOOKED, AND NOT USING ANY OF THE IMAGES IN YOUR PORT.
HAVE YOUR HAIR DONE FOR THE SHOOT! BRING YOUR BEST OUTFITS! These images are supposed to reflect your BEST look.
TF work is a collaboration where we both get what we want. I'm not satisfied with just getting what I want from the shoot. You have to be satisfied as well. Otherwise it becomes just a waste of time for me.
So, Models (newbies) ... If you are just starting out and you're from the tri-state area of Pennsylvania (Philly), New Jersey, Delaware or even further away ... and need to develop your Portfolio, browse through the thousands of images on MM of these incredibly talented models and photographers (like I try to do) and get some posing ideas from them ... then get in touch with me through SM Message Center. We can help each other. I check my messages daily.
****************************************************************
Phones are for communication too!
I understand (somewhat) why a model might not want to give out there phone# up front...however, at some point we need to converse to discuss things in detail. SM's personal message center to me is for sending notes and reminders - not for detailed messages. Therefore if I give you my number please use it to contact me for detailed info, such as: shoot date, time, location, theme, clothing styles, comparing ideas, etc.
TFCD NO CALL/NO SHOW'S WILL NOT BE RESCHEDULED, NO EXCEPTIONS AND WILL BE PUT ON BLAST ON A NC/NS LIST THAT I WILL PUT ON MY PROFILE PAGE FOR THE ENTIRE MM COMMUNITY TO SEE...A RESCHEDULE IS ONLY POSSIBLE FOR NC/NS's WITH A "PAY IN ADVANCE" FEE FOR SERVICES.
I understand that things can come up unexpectedly to prohibit you from showing up. However, a phone call to confirm 12 to at least 6 hrs. before shoot, will show that you respect my time... in that case you can reschedule. ****************************************************************
Because of limited space in the camera room, unless you're bringing your mua, hair stylist or stylist, I must ask that you only bring one escort with you to the shoot.
________________________________________________________________________
I'M ONLY INTERESTED IN PHOTOGRAPHING GLAMOR/FASHION, SPORTSWEAR/SWIMSUIT, TASTFUL LINGERIE AND RUNWAY. (NO NUDES or Implied Nudes) TARGETING ADULT MODELS 18 AND UP.
