     General Information 
    ABOUT LIGHTMASTER: I am a professional fine art photographer with more than 30 years' experience. I have exhibited my works in shows, both locally and regionally, and sell my prints to both collectors and decorators. Recently I have done some limited commercial work for advertising. I haven't quit my day job, however.

    ABOUT THE MODELS WHOM I SERVE AS PHOTOGRAPHER/MANAGER: I do not pretend to be an agent nor do I promise to make them world-famous supermodels. Our relationship is one of mutual trust and aid. There is no monetary obligation on either side of the agreement. We do try to help each other find work. I pay them the same fees they would expect from any professional.

    Also, I serve as a kind of filter for the referrals they get. I help the models evaluate photographers based on their skills and the quality of their portfolios, and what they and the photographers can do for each other, and how to avoid the GWCs who can do nothing for them. I also offer suggestions, for what they're worth, on how to hone their own look to become the best they can possibly be. For my part, I get to work with some truly lovely people. All in all, it works out well for both sides.

    My fans are those whose eyes see not only the beautiful things of this marvelous world, but whose minds can understand and appreciate how the light reveals their beauty. The words of Ruth Bernhard, in my estimation one of the greatest photographers of the female form of all time, express my own thoughts much better than I possibly could:

    "If I have chosen the female form in particular, it is because beauty has been debased and exploited in our sensual 20th century. Woman has been the subject of much that is sordid and cheap, especially in photography. To raise, to elevate, to endorse with timeless reverence the image of woman has been my mission."

    "My quest, through the magic of light and shadow, is to isolate, to simplify, and to give emphasis to form with the greatest clarity. To indicate the ideal proportion, and reveal sculptural mass and the dominating spirit is my goal." -- Ruth Bernhard (1905-2006)
