| How did you get into photography? | ![]() |
|||||||||||
| Always been creative since i was a child. Painting, Drawing etc. | ||||||||||||
| When in school i did do a course in Photography, but they stopped | ||||||||||||
| the course after a couple of weeks because there were not enough | ||||||||||||
| people. Then a few years leter i started shooting photos on a trip in | ||||||||||||
| SanFrancisco. When i got back i applied for a local college, and then | ||||||||||||

| How did your first model shoot go? | ||||||||||||
| My very 1st shoot with a model was while i was still studying, it was | ||||||||||||
| kind of hard because i had no idea how to direct the model. So all the | ||||||||||||
| images looked exactly the same. | ||||||||||||

| What makes a great model for you? | ||||||||||||
| Someone who moves well, and knows what they are doing. Vanessa | ||||||||||||
| Upton is the best model i have worked with. Also Alexandra Sim- | ||||||||||||
| Wise is good too. | ||||||||||||

Do you prefer location shoots or studio shoots? | |||||||||||
| A lot of my work at the moment is created in a studio environment. I | ||||||||||||
| love to create lighting myself, I feel having control of light can only | ||||||||||||
| be beneficial for your Photography. I love to shoot on location when I | ||||||||||||
| can, but again using flash is my forte. As soon as it gets a bit warmer | ||||||||||||
| I will hopefully be out shooting somewhere in the country. | ||||||||||||

| What do you love most about your work? | ||||||||||||
| I love to create seductive images, almost erotic styled shots in a | ||||||||||||
| contemporary way. I love to create colourful images which jump of the | ||||||||||||
| page at the viewer. | ||||||||||||

And do you use Photoshop much? | ||||||||||
| I use Photoshop for everything really, it's a must have these days I | ||||||||||||
| think. Just another tool to enhance the images that i shoot. But | ||||||||||||
| sometimes it can be over the top a little bit is used to much. | ||||||||||||
