Modelling for me: if I’ve asked you to model for me please take a look at the “Faces” section of the website. I normally provide free prints in exchange for modelling. If after we’ve worked together you would also like to model for some “Feral Nudes” then I’ll pay you something for your time as well as providing prints. Maybe we’ve never met, but you’d like to model for me - send me an email with some details about yourself.
Model portfolios: my rates for shooting these are very reasonable - or I might do your shots in exchange for modelling for my projects.
Commissioned work and licensing photos for commercial use: please get in touch.
Buying prints: many of these pictures are available as limited edition art prints:
Limited editions consist of:
- 25 A2 (approximately 16.5 x 23.4 inch) prints
- 5 A1 (approximately 23.4 x 33.1 inch) prints.
These are printed with archival inks using an Epson 4800 printer on 308gsm Hahnemuehle Photo Rag paper, numbered, signed and dated on the back, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
Prices for unmatted A2 prints start at £100 (plus shipping costs) and rise after every five prints sold.
Prices for A1 prints are available on request.
Commercial quality prints: I may occasionally release commercial quality prints (for example, when wanted for portfolio purposes by the model), however these are unsigned and always smaller than A2 in size.
Technical stuff:
- Cameras: I used 35mm (Canon), medium format (Pentax 67) and 5×4 inch (MPP) cameras for over twenty years, printing traditionally in a wet darkroom. I have now switched almost entirely to digital (Canon 5D and 5Dii). I do still occasionally use film for the unique qualities of Tri-X film and the Pentax 67 lenses.
- Printing: I no longer print in a wet darkroom. I prefer the control and results printing digitally.
- Website design: I am using Wordpress as a content management system (CMS). It’s simple to use, very quick to update, gives good results in searches, and it’s fast for the reader. The design is a modification of the iNove theme.
