I'm not a fashion photographer.  I don't shoot for Maxim, or to sell soap.  Those are all respectable professions, but that's not me.

I make fine art.  I'm represented by galleries like [http://pucciogallery.com/]The Puccio Gallery[/url] in New York City, where my photographs hang along the wall with works by Picassco and Warhol.  (I'm not saying that I'm equal to those guys, but you get the idea).

FYI, am not looking for TFP, wizards, or dates.

Like most artists throughout the centuries, I believe the greatest work of art is a woman.  Not Barbie dolls who lack soul and individuality, but real woman, regardless of age, who's beauty doesn't fade with fashion but lasts centuries.  Women like Audrey Hepburn,  Christy Turlington (who's face was chosen to be the face of mannequins in NYC's Museum of Modern Art), or The Afghan girl. 

I have a little ego.  I hope my work doesn't disappear with the Sunday paper, but survives generations like the artists whom I admire:  Helmut Newton,  Edward Steichen, or Melvin Sokolsky. 

Did I sell you on the art stuff?  Good.  My work is serious, but I'm not.  Photography is my passion and I enjoy sharing it.  I enjoy collaborating with fellow artists (Yes, I do consider models artists.) If we work together, its going to be fun! 

Now, if you get an email from email me asking to shoot, you know what I see in you. 

Thanks for reading.

Oh... and... like one of my inspirations, Edga Degas,  I want to capture the everyday grace of dancers.  If you dance and model, you go to the head of the class.  Send me a PM.

This is me...


If your profile says "Paid Assignments Only" I won't bother you. I already know that whatever we might shoot together is of absolutely no use to you and that my time and talent is worthless from your point of view. That doesn't mean I never pay models. It just means that I give first preference to those who've helped me create images that attract paying clients (publications, web sites, et al.) and that "Paid Assignments Only" models are last on my list to hire for paid assignments.
