About Me
After all, isn't what this site is supposed to be all about?
The truth is, we'll have fun doing it and if it's not fun, why do this at all?
Hit me up, call me up, drop me a note.
I doubt that you'll read any of this, but I'll do it anyway:
Originally from (ooh-wah ditty) New York City. That makes me a cynic, loaded with sarcasm, and lots of fun to hang with.
I'm a also US Army veteran.
I've produced, or photographed, or directed and even edited commercial photo shoots in LA, SD, OC and NYC for brochures, or newspaper, or magazine ads, and just for fun, and do videos with a really good bunch of shooters.
I'm also happy to donate my time and talent for community and charity events and causes. Why? Because it's the right thing to do.
I've produced, written, and directed TV commercials and promotional videos for commercial furniture stores, bull-dozers, home exercise equipment, jewelry stores, restaurants, shopping malls, radio stations, many hotels and luggage stores in LA, OC and LV.
I've also written, produced, or acted and/or directed several short films (even starred in one).
So... I can also act and have appeared on CSI and a few other TV programs. The best thing about me is... laughter. Making you laugh and having a fun shoot.
I've also done or tried so many other things in my life that there's no room to tell you everything.
I shoot nearly exclusively with women. That's just the way it is. I prefer studio to outdoor shoot. If we can use your hotel, or your place, I'll love you even more. Hotels are primo! If you can do your own MU, I love ya, already, but I do know some cool MUAs.
I'm always happy to mentor and work with NEWBIES in front of and behind the camera. If you're a new model, you've come to the place and person to fast-track your career.
Please Read and Understand That:
Actors: Yes
Female Dancers: Always.
Strippers: Of course.
Newbies: Most of the time.
I like shooting groups of two or three, but do not shoot events or performances unless they're rehearsals or recording sessions. I don't do weddings events. I will occasionally do engagement shoots. Payments in cash, costs based on time and conditions. No overnight shoots.
I will do on-set photography and must be paid each day in cash. Max 8 hours: $1000.
I'll always be happy to fully collaborate on a TF model shoot of your choice. If I offer to shoot with you, be excited and happy. I won't be angry if you don't accept.
I don't climb hills or rocks, hike, bike, do deserts or trails.
I never fly with you if you're the pilot and I don't do sandy beaches.
I love almost every animal and particularly good natured dogs.
If you're traveling to LA — by yourself — my wife and I may be open to you staying with us as long as you provide your own food and drink. I'll trade the lodging for shooting time. Base it on a rate of $300/day of your time. No boozers, tokers or smokers please. Pleasant and sociable people with good social skills allowed only.
Thanks.
Glamorous
Def: Oxford Living Dictionary:
