NOTE: EFFECTIVE 9/1, I HAVE RELOCATED TO HONG KONG. I will still be in Chicago from time to time, but shoots there will have to be planned WELL in advance. I look forward to working with MMers on this side of the ocean! **************************************** Quick summary, for those who hate long profiles: - Unless it's a paid shoot for a client, I almost always prefer TF* - Most of my studio gear is portable, so I can come to you if that makes you more comfortable. I can also handle locations with sufficient light or access to power. - I am a recreational photographer (I shoot because I enjoy it, not as a source of income), not an amateur photographer. I will send along any relevant paperwork beforehand, and you will receive the agreed-upon work product promptly. You will be treated with courtesy and respect, and I hope to receive the same. - As a recreational photographer, I often get as much enjoyment out of helping you bring your ideas to life as I do my own. Please don't ever hesitate to reach out if you want to try creating something, my camera does neither of us any good if it's not being used! - I have a sense of humor. I prefer it when shoots are a couple people having fun creating something. I will take the shoot seriously, but probably take myself less so.;) **************************************** Additional things I can offer in trade (my photos and the warmth of my smile should be enough, but really, there's just no pleasing some people!;) - Computer-related assistance (lots here, from basic tech help to web design and hosting. This is my day job, and I'm quite good at it, but be reasonable.;) - Self-defense lessons (I am a licensed (menkyo-holding) instructor in a Japanese martial art, and can do individual or group seminars for you / your friends) - Food (I'm a hell of a cook, though it's rarely very healthy fare;) (Note on the above - any and all marriage proposals will be swiftly rejected - sorry, I'm taken!:) **************************************** Ten random facts about me: * My photography background is in wildlife / nature photography * I held a B.S. in Chemistry before I was old enough to legally drink * I will not eat two different-colored M&Ms unless those colors somehow compliment each other * I have been interviewed for Mancow, CNN.com, and an Austrian documentary film * I've taken photos for nightlife magazines in both Chicago and Tokyo * I taught myself to play the tin whistle while stuck in traffic every night on I-290 * I hold a general dislike of the color green * I write letters with a fountain pen * I was once given 24 hours to live * I proposed in the middle of a pack of wolves (note, this point is unrelated to the one above;) **************************************** Friend requests welcome, shoot ideas welcome, comments / critiques welcome!
