About Me
I shoot a range of commercial and advertising projects but my personal passion is photographing people, with my main interest being boudoir and art nude. I enjoy working with exciting creative people, and have no pre-conceived ideas of how a model should look, or their body shape. I simply love to photograph the human form.
The projects I shoot regularly range from fetish (including smoking and fetish nurse), art nude, BBW, erotica and boudoir. I am always in search of models for paid shoot, or tf' to mutually develop portfolios.

Shoot Styles & My Interests
I like to mix up what I shoot, though I do love to shoot art nude, lingerie and boudoir style images, with a sensual feel. I also have a love of images featuring models smoking and shoot this whenever I can, along with fetish imagery.
My Studio
I use a home studio, it is quite a big space, certainly large enough for my style of photography, I am always evolving the space to incorporate different shooting areas.
Collaboration / TF - Part Paid shoots - Paid shoots
For personal projects I like to collaborate on a TF basis. I find that spontaneity works the best, I like to have a general Idea for a shoot, then move off at a tangent creating images that work in the moment. I am happy to help a model develop their portfolio in any style, but do prefer to shoot to my interests where possible. On occasion I shoot part paid shoot, these are shoots where I have a specific idea in mind and the model would like high quality photos or video from the shoot. I always pay for shoots if I have a commission or a revenue stream for the finished content.
TF what is appreciated and supplied in return...
I like to shoot models that have well manicured nails, sounds obvious but occasionally a model turns up with chipped and bitten nails, personally i find this can ruin a shoot. Generally no fake tan, it can go patchy and make skin look quite unattractive.
TF in return for your time I will supply an agreed amount of images retouched to a very high standard usually 3 per hour of shooting but I am flexible about the amount supplied.
All images from the shoot are uploaded to dropbox at low resolution, for you to choose the ones to be edited, I ask that no images are used without retouching.
All chosen images are retouched at full resolution and general 2 versions supplied at web resolution (900 pixels and 1600 pixels on the long edge) with a subtle watermark
Time frame for supply of images, as a guide I endeavour to upload the previews to dropbox within 24 hours of the shoot and normally supply final retouched images within 7 days of being supplied the chosen numbers (generally images are supplied a lot quicker than 7 days)
I ask that all image usage is accredited to myself as the photographer, and in return I will credit you where possible/practical
Terminology
Erotic:My personal view of the term is 'artistic sensuality,' the portrayal of a model in a desirable way. Not necessarily nude or even partialy clothed, but photographed with intent of evoking desire in the viewer
Publishing a coffee table book
I am creating a coffee table book with the content "Ladies In Lingerie" and looking for contributors. If you would like to be published, please message me for details
Personal book
I am in the final stages of producing a little pocket book, a mini boudoir portfolio as it were, always looking for models for the final few pages
