What I like and my chosen themes

I'm a self taught photographer / artist. Currently looking to do more photo work, and make more model contacts, something that I find has brought a lot of enjoyment into my world and something I'd like to keep doing, for as long as I feel passionate about it, and as long as you wonderful models will keep working with me. :)

Love and hugs to the wonderful models :)

I'm passionate about what I do and love photography, though I admit I'm doing it pretty much for myself and not for profit. Most of my work goes into my own online gallery at the moment, which is how I got started with all this in the first place having had several galleries over the years but things change photos get done, removed, deleted, and life goes on.

I have always enjoyed and liked the look of a skirt suit, long fitted skirts with dressy tops or shirts, or long fitted dresses that show the shape of a woman's figure, especially the hips. I have always been fascinated with the suits of the 40s, 50s and the whole look of those, the way a woman could wiggle the hips and the look of a tight skirt would send one wild, or a skirt with a slit down the side that showed a hint of the legs and a hint of thigh. Things like that are so much more sexy then clothes that leave little or nothing to the imagination, not to mention that look lacking a lot in the way of class. I'm just fond of that period and that kind of look.

That's not to say I do not like modern times, but just that I like those old fashioned themes of the past, and the look of that period. I fell head over heels in love with the period of the 40s and 50s and pencil skirts, (I think they call them "wiggle skirts") and those skirt suit type outfits. I'm probably romanticising the period a bit, but that's how I feel.

However that isn't to say I am stuck in that period as you can see from my profile I've ventured into some daring ideas with my "Vampire in the city" series which is you will find on myh DA page, the link to which is at the top of my profile page here on MM. I have also done a series of photos of the alternative look, and will have more of that up on my DA page shortly.

I will dare to venture out of my comfort zone if I feel strongly about an idea but I DEFINITELY AM NOT INTERESTED IN ANYTHING to do with nude work at all.... I would however like to shoot a swimsuit or two one day, preferably a one piece as I find them more appealing to me then bikinis, which are far too common and eveyrone seems to do the same kind of photos over, and over again.

Anyway that's about it. That's me in a nutshell.. Feel free to ask me anything if you like or would like to get in touch with me about doing a shoot. I'd like to have some more models to work with and see what we can do.. Am always welcome to a hello so write me if you think we could work well together.

Current Residence: Australia
Favourite genre of music: no particular favourite, but I am partial to jazz
Favourite style of art: Black and white, Sepia, Themed pictures like the 1920s, 40s.
MP3 player of choice: Sony mp3 player
Personal Quote: Choccies I love choccies YUM
Interests
Shit, bum, poo........

Printer just died today. Came home from photo shoot put new cartridges into printer to print labels which I need to get done in a certan timeframe and the $$#$%# printer dies.....

Why do these things happen when you need something done urgently?

I swear printers are the spawn of the devil..

She is. I've seen some of her other stuff and Pauley Perette is funny outside of NCIS too. But I like her for the fact she's not some 20 soemthing starlet.

I can't pronouce the real name of the actress that plays Ziva hehe.

I can't. I left the group after I made my last statement.

If you go to the Facebook home page and type Beyond The Mayhem in the search field, it should come up.
