# About me

I started photographing sports events when I was 17 at the urging of my grandfather. I quickly realized how much I loved it. I am now 24 and photograph professionally. I love being around people. I'm funny and laid back and live to freeze a moment in time. I hope you enjoy my work and feel free to critique me. The moment we decided we have learned everything is the moment our craft begins to suffer.

I've been body boarding since I was a kid. I miss it so much. I'm only a couple of hours from the beach now but I can't get down there much and my dad left my board in a shed when we moved and it became a lovely apartment complex for a family of ants. lol. I just haven't bought a new one. BOO!

Shadows-and-Rain In reply to suckmenow [2012-06-29 16:17:53 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much. I have been blessed with amazing models. :) (Smile) I did check out your gallery and I'll tell you what I have told so many other nude models. You HAVE to show your face, and if you're shy, then at least go up to your neck. Use body position to show emotion and light and shadows to show mood. You have fantastic muscle tone to show mood through shadows and it looks like you would be quite good at body positions too. If you photograph yourself then practice in front of a mirror or with a webcam so you can see yourself. You have amazing potential. Use it. Good luck. I'll stay posted. :) (Smile)

As I was trolloping through the Artistic Nudes, I noticed your photos. Here's my constructive criticism at it's finest...stick with Black & White, since they all look great! Don't take a picture of the model lying on a couch at that weird head first angle like "Delicious" and "Tease". "The Truck" and "Marisol" actually has a great commercial quality...kinda makes me want to buy some jeans. I'm not a photographer, so take it for what it is. Overall, it looks like you're doing beautifully in the realm of photography! And, you're one drawing isn't that bad, either. ;) (Wink)
