Southeast Swimwear
I am a semi-professional photographer with over 27 years of experience. I love to capture the beauty of the female figure in swimwear , lingerie or artistic nudes where graceful lines can be exhibited in glamorous images. In past years, I have shot casual wear, fashion, lingerie, artistic and artistic /glamour nudes. I am now focusing on swimwear and lingerie related images. I work well with all models and will work with both experienced and inexperienced models.
As a minimum, I work on a TFCD basis. The model receives a copy of all images in both RAW and edited versions. If I travel near a model's location or if she travels near my location, I can usually find the time to work with area models. I shoot everything digital now, so images are available much quicker than before. If you have skin blemishes, I will remove or eliminate them in the edited images, unless the model wishes them to remain.
If you have a web site and would like some free content, I will consider working with you on a TFCD basis to expand my portfolio. You would be free to use the photos on your web site as you desire.
I am only working with female models at this time.
If I travel to a location near you and if I can work you into my schedule then I will be happy to try and work out a session with you. Just write and ask. You decide what you want to shoot. I am a very relaxed photographer and will never pressure a model to shoot something she is uncomfortable doing.
All models are welcome to bring any escort they feel necessary for their safety. Your safety and comfort are important to me to achieve the best photographic results.

ensure both the model and the background are properly
exposed together.
Moon Rise:
Photograph the full moon as it rises above the horizon
at the beach (east coast or Gulf Coast that has a clear
view over the water to the east) when it is blue, red,
orange, or yellow, on a long exposure, at a long focal
length, and catch a model in the frame at either side
by firing a flash at the last second of the exposure.

coffee, hot chocolate, or hot tea in the early morning.
