About Me

Thanks for taking the time to view my profile. I am a photographer/graphic artist who has primarily used myself as my model for my photography projects. Recently I've enjoyed being a subject for other photographers for an entirely new perspective on photo sets.
There is something about me that I think sets me apart from other models. I am currently overcoming what many might term as a 'disability'. A few years ago I was involved in a car accident where I sustained a spinal cord injury. Initially my doctors told me that I would most likely not walk again and that I should make the most of my life as a person in a wheelchair. That rang so false to me. I knew inside me that this condition was not permanent and set out on a path of alternative medicine combined with traditional physical therapy. What many people fail to recognize is that when you're in an accident like I was, your body is injured your but self image takes a blow too. So it was during this time of physical rehabilitation that I bought my first digital camera to document my progress. As I became familiar with the camera's settings and skilled with using the timer I also started the process of healing my self esteem as well.
I quickly found that I was still an attractive and sensual being.
and that the gains I was making in physical therapy were complimenting what I was able to do in front of the camera.

On first look, most observers of my pictures cannot tell that I'm dealing with a physical limitation. After completing hundreds of photo sets, I am an expert of emphasizing my abilities over any impairments I might have. I've been very lucky to work with some very talented photographers who have found my attitude about the hand I've been delt inspiring and admirable rather than tragic.

I'm very easy to work with, have a great sense of humor regarding my challenge and receptive to other photographers suggestions.
As mentioned before, besides being a photographer/model, I'm also a graphic artist with an emphisis on Photoshop and other Adobe applications. I do prefer to do my own Photoshop retouching on my photos even when they are taken by another photographer. I feel that no one knows what flaws might best be concealed (to avoid distraction) and what character features to be emphasized better than I do.
I've been told I'm a pleasure to collaborate with. I am open do doing everything from fully dressed to tasteful nudes. I am 31 but as you see photograph much younger (all photos showing were taken between the ages of 27 and 31)

I would welcome hearing from any photographers in New Mexico or photographers willing to travel here as I continue my journey to full physical restoration.
