Amateur Pro. If you want to ask me questions about any shots in particular, feel free. I enjoy telling people about my setups and how I determined to use whatever lighting system I am using.

If you'd like to talk to me about doing some commercial work, feel free to message me as well. If you just want to shoot, and would like to shoot with me(as a model, makeup artist, or other photographer), again, just send me a message. I take pictures because i love to take pictures - not because it's a job.

Cameras I shoot with:
My Primary Camera is:
Mamiya RZ67 Pro II
65mm lens
110mm lens
T/S 75mm lens

I generally shoot low ISO - velvia50, PanF, but will shoot faster depending on the purpose of the shoot.
All test shots are metered and then shot on Polaroid 669 or FujiPro F-100C.

For Digital, I shoot with:
Nikon D300
50mm lens
18-200VR lens

For lighting I use:
1 studio light with reflector
2 3200W softboxed cool lights

1 SB800 w/ omnibounce or deflector
1 Sunpak on Manual
1 set of cactus V4 strobes, with an additional receiver

additionally, I now have a studio set up with black, white, or blue backgrounds. It's pretty nice. I am also broke, as a result.

So, if you want to shoot with me, let me know!
