About Me

I don't shoot fashion, portrait, event, wedding, corporate or conceptual photography. I pursue photography, actively and passionately. Down to each fiber of who I am, creativity fuels all that I do. My objective is to inspire, to stun, to show people something they've never seen before and to leave them wanting more. Clients simply give me the opportunity to manifest that passion for the arts into tangible expression. If you are looking for a spirited, conceptually driven, creative photographer who is not afraid to walk outside your comfort zone, then have no fear! You have come to the right place.

The INSPIRO philosophy is this -

My main focus will always be on the importance of initiating a working rapport between the photographer and client. My number one priority is to ensure that the clients I shoot are comfortable and feel free to make suggestions or share their own creative ideas during our work together. In fact, I believe that is the best way to shoot!

Collaboration truly is key and this works in just the opposite as well; negative interactions or vibes between professionals can result in less than satisfactory results. Whether it be TFP, a group collaboration or a paid event, Inspiro commits to your vision 100% and will make the most of the resources we have available. We only ask that those we work with return the same level of respect.

My Background -

Though young in age, I've been working in the fashion and entertainment industry for about 5 years now, varying in the areas of modeling, styling, design, wellness, creative direction, event production, dance, performing arts, spoken word, brand ambassadorship and creativity-based social media.

Growing up in the fine art world, I was lucky enough to enter the industry at the age of 15. An incredible pair of realism artists and founding members of The International Guild of Realism, Donald Clapper and Vala Ola, hired me for my first photo shoot which later resulted in Vala Ola's realism work, 'Eye of the Peacock.' This was a turning point for me in my creative endeavors. I continued to be active in the Arizona fashion and entertainment industry from then on, building rapports with noteable industry professionals, many of whom are now my closest friends.

In 2013, I began working with The [CREATIV] Movement and reconnected with my fundamental passion for creativity. It was due to this and personal reasons that I decided to step away from modeling, and channel that experience into photography - an art I have been passionate about since snapping my first photo with a Polaroid camera as a child. It is from this experience that my philosophy stemmed. I have seen both sides of the lens, and hope that the clients and models I work with appreciate the creative environment I work to create for each collaborator.

Model Notes:

I am currently seeking local models for a multitude of upcoming projects (Please view the credits section for associations) as well as for my own personal portfolio building. A list of current conceptual focuses include:

- Yoga & Holistic Wellness
- 'Artists at Work'
- Surrealism (Alternative Models/Must be adventurous and up for exploring on-site!)
- Body Empowerment (May require implied, No full nudity) ALL BODY TYPES NEEDED!
- Conceptual Editorial & Publication
- Bikini (Includes spray tanning & MUA)

If you are interested in any of the above mentioned projects, please message me with the project focus listed in the subject line (For example: Subject - 'Body Empowerment') and a bit about you and your interest in the project. Unless otherwise specified, we will then set up a TFP shoot which will serve as a test shoot before final selection.

IMPORTANT TFP/TFCD NOTES:

Now, I always try to make the most of any shoot, TFP or not. Don't think of this so much as a "test shoot" but as an opportunity to produce a work of art together that will benefit both our personal profiles. I want to hear your ideas, your vision, the creative idea that you've not yet pursued with any other photographer. I want you to show me what inspires you to do what you do. If we create something truly beautiful, then we'll even submit it for publication and you are of course welcome to the photos for your own use, per the guidelines of our model release form.

If you'll be in need of props, MUA, MUAH, production, creative direction, wardrobe... etc. Have no fear! Just let me know and I will contact some of the local designers, hair artists, MUA's, etc. and see if they may be able to provide services for trade or at a discounted rate.

Upon completion of a TFP shoot with INSPIRO, you will receive 3-5 images MINIMUM depending on what we agreed upon. Unless our project requires specific digital manipulation, you will receive images within two weeks of our shoot (usually sooner).

--

For rates, I do have basic packages for portfolio building, renovation and even full makeovers. However, I am currently flexible on pricing as I am building my editorial portfolio during 2014. Get in touch with me today and let's make some magic while these limited time rates are still available!

Create. Inspire. Embrace.

Unfortunately, after 4+ years of modeling and many more in other areas, this list is becoming increasingly hard to keep up on. It is for that reason that I will no longer be posting this list here. Instead, I have listed only a select group of individuals who I have worked with that have Model Mayhem profiles and would be available for a reference contact. Please PM me for a full list of credits and publications and feel free to get in touch with any of the listed professionals for references.
