Mel's Photography Service's photostream

I am always open to criticism, advice, and feedback so feel free to comment or message me!

Describe your equipment/facilities (camera, lights, studio, backdrops, etc.)? The only thing I have to work with now is a Samsung Digimax S500 digital camera.

What days of the week, and times of day, are best for you to shoot? I enjoy taking photos right before sundown, but anytime of the day is always fun.

How far are you willing to travel for that special shoot?Right now I am limited in where I can travel. If I had a car and the time, I could travel a good distance.

What features/measurements are most important to you when choosing a model? I haven't had the opportunity to work with many models, but I believe a good photographer should be able to work with anyone. One feature that I'd like to capture would most likely be the eyes.

What types of shots do you need to see in a model's portfolio to make a decision (e.g. full length, close-up) Close up and full length

What is your next pet project? Winter season

How are the photos you shoot used? Digitally uploaded onto different site portfolios.

What is your formal education (if any) in photography, and how long have you been shooting? I have only been able to practice and read books on photography/photographers. I am pretty much self-taught. As for how long, I've been taking photos of myself as far back as I could remember. I didn't start taking an interest in the world around me as a whole until recently.
