Our firm's current focus is Mainstream Feature Film Still Work with additional work in the areas of: Fashion, Sports, Fine-Art, and Concert Imagery.
In conjunction with this portfolio of work, we obviously travel nationally and internationally on a regular basis. However, as the result of the clearly sensitive nature of work, clients, and the talent in the mainstream movie industry, our travel schedule will generally NOT be published here.
Our orientation to a focus on Mainstream Movie work with the likes of: Billy Dee Williams, Gabrielle Anwar, Charles Durning, Christina Ricci, Carmen Electra, Sandra Bernhard, Tyson Beckford, and a host of other notables means that our time off-set (as in: "not on a movie set") has become considerably more valuable and our availability for projects not central to our mission is considerably reduced of late. Accordingly, we generally keep our schedule open for major clients only and, even more RARELY than hitherto, contract out services directly to models.
We will also consider, on a limited basis, portfolio work upon behalf of movie and theatre talent.
Additionally, given our current preferred industry position, it is now exceedingly rare for us to even consider TFP work - however, in extremely select cases, we may consider such an arrangement.
We are, still, & ALWAYS, looking for "fresh faces" and the next "LOOK!" This remains especially true for our fine-art Black and White Gallery imagery.
I've been shooting as a full-time professional for more than ten years. Currently I work predominantly in mainstream film as a still photographer with film crews. I recently was tabbed to direct my first film: a mainstream documentary project. Now, I just have to wait for them to pull all the backer$ together.
I shoot fine-art and fashion imagery as well. I formerly specialized in sports and events imagery. I teach and write on photography and digital imaging/printing as well.
If that isn't enough, I dabble in politics and I'm currently a full-time student studying: Philosophy, Political Science and Environmental Policy (some is graduate level work & some is undergraduate level work).
We do ask that if you contact us or book with us, to keep in mind that we expect all professionals to adhere to whatever schedule they and we might commit to. Photography and Photographic Services are our ONLY business. We ALWAYS treat our clients, talent, models, and all with whom we work, as consummate professionals, and, quite simply, out of fairness, expect the same in return. Unprofessionalism in a client, staff, or talent/model inevitably tarnishes and/or sullies the reputation of ALL involved and therefore: less than 100% professionalism in anyone with whom we work shall not be tolerated and, as I am sure any serious professional is fully aware, is generally the "kiss of death" in any serious facet of the Entertainment Industries. We simply do not tolerate unprofessional behavior from anyone when working with us, nor can we tolerate or condone anything less than the fullest in professionalism from any other professionals who choose to work with any talent or models whom we represent or with whom we are associated.
In other words: flakes, pervs, and other unprofessional types need not apply here.
All our work is performed by both release and professional contract. We are also well aware that some within the industry have a tendency to slanderous or libelous commentary regarding competitors, and that copyright violation is rife. Please rest assured that we shall not participate in, nor deem acceptable any such behavior. We have both an Intellectual Property attorney and a General Counsel on retainer and we vigorusly defend our professional and creative reputations, and those of the models and staff with whom we choose to work, as well as our copyrights and the name/likeness of our models from misappropriation.
