About Me

Updated as of 03/27/2025
My name is Michael Blue Smith. Owner of Marke Design Photography, Creator of B.A.R.E., and BLKOCTBR. I'm a freelance photographer and graphic designer. I began as a graphic design artist, back in 1999, assisting in designing album covers for a record label that I was once signed to. In 2008, I found myself editing photos for album covers and flyers that I created and just fell in love with the photography side of designing. I realized that if I had quality photos to work with I could create a better product. So, I took up photography and have been building a solid portfolio since 2011.

I began doing a lot of urban fashion photoshoots, which I love. Then, I experimented with Avant Garde and a combination of themed photo sessions. My most recent success has been in boudoir, artistic nudes, and all things creative. I really want to get back into Avant Garde and incorporating that style into general concepts family photos and graduation etc. Because of my photoshop background, I am pretty skilled with re-touching photos and integrating images and typography. I've also recently began to incorporate some Ai in my editing process.

My intension is too network with models, build my brands, and pick the brains of other photographers and graphic artist. My goal is to make a living off creating and selling art.

Hey, did you get my message?
I’m a full time international model with 10+ years experience coming to your area October 2nd - 5th or 6th before heading to Dallas. I’d love to know if you would like to work with me while I am here or if you know anyone who might. This may be the only chance to shoot me in your area. Do you have recommendations on how else to get more work or who to reach out to?
I have more details in my profile but here is a bit ABOUT me; As a full time model, I am highly committed, passionate, reliable, open to working with artists of any level of experience & am very experienced in a wide variety of expressive poses. I’ve worked throughout AUS, NZ, UK, EU, Hawaii, India, Singapore, Malaysia & Philippines with plans to travel through other parts of the world. My many years of experience in the industry with a range of creatives from around the world have earned me features in multiple magazines, art galleries & exhibitions in a variety of countries. I’m open to modelling with other male or female models (locals or traveling) in the studio as well as on location in various conditions & throughout a broad range of styles from portraits, fashion, pinup, editorial, beauty, lifestyle, swimwear, lingerie, sheer, topless, boudoir, implied, through to art nude. I can do glamour as well as suggestive & slight fetish/erotica but I don’t do open leg or porn. My extra talents; I’m a musician, I know how to free dive which is good for underwater shots, can horse ride, go on long hikes & also can crack a stock whip, I practice yoga, & have done basic pole & aerial hoop/silks.

My RATES; for up to art nude $150 per hour for 2hrs or more or $550 for 4hrs or $1000 a day. This covers costs including my meals/drinks, public transportation, outfits I can bring, my own make up & other things to help me be the best I can for you. Surcharges; for 1hr only, light fetish & extra shooters. I do understand people have budgets so I can offer pay off methods where you pay the rate over an agreed time.
