Philip Romeyn | Create Your Badge

My name is Philip Romeyn and my commonly used nick is Phillostar and as hobby i do photography and at the moment a lot of model photography. This all to get my creativity out into the world and my self out of the daily work routine.

I started doing model photography July 2009 and it's fun to work out ideas that creep around in my head and ofcourse the ideas of the model. Photography has been one of my hobbies for about 9 years, but since april 2009 i started shooting with DSLR.

Model Shoots
I don't have a studio so i only do location/urban shoots, I don't do mainstream shoots or regular stuff, there has to be some kind of twist or theme to the shoot (Gothic, Victorian, Cyber, Punk, Lolita, Fetish anything that goes for excentric).
