Distorted Echo

I'm DistortedEcho, welcome to my Portfolio. :)  

Qucik note: (I'm looking for new or experienced models that can shoot from their own home/have a location, for fully paid shoots, soft fetish level, various themes/levels from lingerie level up, and also sometimes others. Can sometimes travel for the right look/project - please message me)  Please be upfront on your basic location in the country in replies, so I know my travel plan.

(I'm happy to shoot with all levels of models, experienced and new models, many of my shoots are clothed/lingerie, while I have shot topless model stuff etc, some of my shoots are strictly clothed or lingerie level, if shooting for publish a standard model release form/ID will be needed for legal publishing requirements)

For Fetish level only: Currently shooting fully paid, publishable fetish content for a soft-fetish site members only project, launching soon - ALL my fetish shoots for this require a model release to be signed and copy of ID taken for legal requirements. No release, no fetish shoot.

About Me

I am an experienced and published 38 year old Photographer from Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. I like to shoot a wide range of styles, models & themes as you can see from my portfolio & references.

I'm currently published in print, and on several websites I previously shot content for, to date. I have produced content for sites. But I'm now 'out on my own', as it were and now building my confidence and contacts for my own shoots by myself. I always pay models and have a lot of experience shooting at my listed levels in my published work. I'm a very experienced music photographer and I love music... and ...cups of tea!

The styles I tend to shoot include fun Glamour, Fashion, Lingerie, and (Soft) Fetish occasionally up to (only with models who do the levels) Nude/Topless/open leg work etc, with models within those levels only. I have shot content for a few websites in the past, which were with some well known models early-on in my port/my first references here.

Coming from a recording studio environment, I like shoots to be fun, chatty, no-stress, laidback and easy going to get results. I'm a very music orientated person and I like shoots to be chatty as we go. I enjoy most genres of music, but do love a bit of Rock, Country, Punk, Electronic and Pop.

 

I’m an easy going, friendly, conscientious, fun, and professional guy who is often not short of creative ideas when needed. I try to make shoots laidback, chatty & fun and I’m not afraid of hard work. I enjoy the challenge of something new while working with creative and fun people, always learning along the way.

 

I'm a highly experienced & an internationally published music photographer which is something I've been concentrating on lately after my photography took me in that direction, but I'm back for more model shoots here in 2023/24, now starting my own major project!

Lately, I've been shooting mostly music/concert/event photography for a few years now to monetise my photography life, but now I'm getting back to my original passion model photography, where I started. I have experience shooting large arenas, small venues, named signed artists, smaller up & coming acts, and everything in between.

Additionally I have previous experience, qualifications/training in sound/audio, music & production, which actually isn't too dissimilar, and also experience in shooting video.

I don't mind making my shoots a collaboration of ideas, two minds full of ideas are better than one.

I always try to send as much detail about the shoot and be as conscientious as possible so everyone knows the plan for the shoot beforehand and go-through/agree each specific setup at the shoot before shooting and make sure you're happy with the images we've done. I edit my images, I own them, I never supply the RAW images, but happy to share a handful for your port, if you wish and ask.

I do use the Calendar on here so you can see my shoot dates and try to keep shoot notes updated pre-shoot with any specifics.

 

I cannot shoot from home at the moment, however my cameras & I can travel to you wherever public transport goes, but I do like a cuppa or three :)

I'm ok for your chaperones on shoots, if necessary, however, all I ask I that they absolutely must stay out the way and not interfere with the shoot :) Let me know your requirements and please see my references.

My inbox is always open, feel free to send me a message if you're interested in working with me - I always pay models and always looking for models for various themes.

I'm happy to supply my contact details upon request. I am happy to pay deposits where necessary to secure a pre-agreed shoot date and theme.

My Cancelation Policy: If I cancel a shoot within 2 days, and/or I can't rebook, I always pay a cancelation fee because I know it will be hard to replace that shoot.

I have full public liability insurance cover due to photography being part of my work life.
