About Me

THOMAS GURNEE PHOTOGRAPHY

Bringing one's inner beauty outward to magnify the radiance of the physical form is my goal in photography.  Nothing beats a happy or sultry, "natural" shot where one's inner essence shows brilliantly through the eyes and face of the model.  This, is what gives a photograph life and makes it "pop" to one who views it.  And this is what I'm always striving to achieve in my work.

As a professional photographer, I specialize in Beauty,, Cosplay, Boudoir, Swimsuit and Headshot photography.  I have done many weddings in the past and I have product photography clients as well.  If you, or a friend need assistance in these areas, please contact me.

I am typically a laid back individual and I'm very easy to work with.  But be prepared for my energy during the shoot.  I'll compliment you, rave about poses and the shots I get in order to keep your energy and motivation up.  I will shoot photos that will show you at your very best, because if you don't look your best, I don't look my best.  I love photography and I love to work with new models to develop amazing images.

Though I have a preference of working with models that are experienced, I have a genuine interest in helping models of all ages develop their portfolios that will get the attention they so deserve. If you are new to modeling I'll do my best to bring out all your true beauty.

If you are looking to make an impression, I'm happy to take that artistic, edgy, and glamorous shot we know we are both looking for.

TO WORK WITH ME:

To express your interest, send me an e-mail and I will add you to my database of models that I access when I need someone for a project. Please always include a phone number and recent photo(s) with your modeling inquiries.

I usually don't have a lot of free time, so please only contact me if you are serious about working together.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

As a professional, you will be treated with the utmost respect and I will expect the same in return.  I have a studio location at my disposal, but I prefer to do most of my work on location (it's less expensive that way for both of us!).

TFP INFO:

I am asked often to do TF shoots.  I do very limited TF shoots and only shoot with models that meet my criteria.  That being said, I do take a few, so it doesn't hurt to ask.  Just kindly please don't be offended if I do not agree to shoot with you. 

I will only shoot concepts / ideas we agree upon, and you should be wiling to do whatever it takes to get the shots done.  You will have to sign a full commercial release allowing me to use your pictures. 

I do NOT give out raw or unedited files.  Models will receive a CD/DVD of all edited photos typically within 14 business days of the shoot but I reserve the option to take a bit longer.  Paid shoots ALWAYS have priority and WILL go ahead of your TF shoot images should I book something in-between your shoot and my respective cd delivery date.

RATES:  PORTFOLIO / PRIVATE SHOOTS:

My rates are very reasonable so please contact me.

Outside of Los Angeles, I am willing to travel anywhere, anytime for your shot.  Travel, lodging charges will be incurred.

You will also be required to sign a release, allowing me to use your images for self promotion (on-line and printed portfolio).

Re: Comic Con Freelance Work

"Tom...BTW, as I was going through them all, I noticed some absolutely amazing gallery quality portrait shots in there – specifically some of the portraits you took in the area with the natural lighting (mezzanine?) around 11:30 am and then again just before 3pm and then a little around 5pm I think - I could easily see them blown up in a gallery in NYC. (capturing a moment of a crazy subculture in extreme clarity).  You probably got inspired by the natural light.

You didn’t just shoot people in costume, you captured some humanity underneath.  Absolutely amazing."

I am so happy and satisfied with the finished product of this photo shoot. It turned out to be exactly what I wanted, and more. You were a great photographer to work with and I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to shoot with you. Keep up the good work! I will definitely refer any of my friends and acquaintances in need of a professional photo shoot, to you.

Thanks so much,

Lizzie H.
