Experience:
I have been shooting models now for several years and its a great experience. I love shooting people more than anything else, love the interaction, the direction, the planning and setup. Its great fun and I have met many lovely people while doing this.

I mainly work TF* but I sometimes part pay models with new clothes or jewellery as well as images. I do not give out unedited images, I always do some retouching; I favor a more natural look and I don't drastically reshape bodies. I do remove blemishes/typical imperfections and enhance the photo to look its best, occasionally applying filter effects to enhance the overall look and feel of the image. The photos that you'll receive from a TF* shoot will be given to you via an emailed private link where you can download them; and if necessary, a CD can be provided instead. You will get web-sized, watermarked versions of all the shots that make the final edits for use online (modelling portfolios, facebook etc). I will provide unwatermarked, high-res versions of up to 5 of the images if you require to have any printed.

As per UK law, copyright will remain with myself and I do not allow any third party (model, tog or otherwise) to edit my images. This also means that as copyright belongs to me, no profit can be made from the sale of my images by any third party either (again, model, tog or otherwise lol).
 
Comments:
I'm very friendly, easy going and apart from photography, i also enjoy singing and recording and have done entertainment in the past. What this brings to the table is my ability to get along well with people and arrange shoot details quickly.

I have no preference as far as sex, size & age of the models go.. I firmly believe that magazine endorsed pretty looks does not equate to being photogenic, confidence is a big factor.

I am happy for models to bring a friend/chaperone along. Not a problem if it helps the model feel more at ease, so long as they are non-intrusive to the shoot and mentioned before the day of the shoot. Don't just turn up with someone on the day of the shoot as I may decide the shoot is no longer going ahead.

I do not shoot females nude or topless. I don't have anything against these types of shots, I just don't shoot to that level. I do however shoot to lingerie level and have a fair bit of experience shooting this, and happy to shoot sheer outfits also. I am also happy to shoot more erotic suggestive poses but do not shoot anything too adult.

My beautiful girlfriend, Laura, is also a tog on this site (username: Purple_Girl) and is more than happy to take shots along with myself on shoots to give the model extra photos as well as a different outlook on the finished product (if this is ok with the model of course, and Laura isn't busy with other shoots herself).

As this was my first ever photo shoot, I was a bit nervous but John and his fiance (Purple_Girl) were absolutely fantastic. They made me feel at ease and gave me clear directions, it was a lot of fun! John always asked me if I was okay with any of the poses and would make sure I was comfortable. Would definitely model for them again :)

Had a shoot with John which went very well, we got some great photos. It was a very enjoyable day at a great location. I have done a good few shoots with John and every shoot has been a great experience. He is very professional, friendly and helpful on the shoots and you always get back some great images. If you haven't worked with John yet, then I would highly recommend him. I look forward to working with John again in 2013.

John joined me as a second shooter on a last minute shoot and we were able to work well together. He directed the model well and contibuted to an otherwise impromtu shoot very well. Although out of his comfort zone for some of the shots we attempted john was alway happy to contribute to the shoot and worked well with myself and the model. I have no problem in reccomending John (and his "better half Purple girl" LOL) To any model or photographer
