General Info, Prints, etc

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 16, 2008, 7:48 PM
Iam currently using dA as a way to display my "greatest hits" and as a print service so people can request and purchase prints, pay via credit card or paypal, and then recieve a great quality print directly from dA.

FAQ!
-------------

Can I only purchase prints that I see here in your dA gallery?

Nope, If you would like a print of any image you've seen here or elsewhere, just note or email me and tell me what size and what picture and I'll add it to my print store.

If this is only a small selection of your work where can I see the rest?

OODLES of photos organized by Collection (Urbex or Figurative) and Set (specific location or model) on my Flickr here: [link]

My photo/travel blog is updated here whenever I complete new work: [link]

The model stuff is okay but where can I see more of your *Urban Exploration* Photos?

You can view all my Urbex photosets on Flickr here: [link]

If you would like to see ONLY entries of an urbex nature from my photoblog you can use this [link] to see all entries that are tagged "urbex".

Will you take my photo and/or are you travelling to my area soon?

More info about photoshoot inquiries for potential models or clients, along with any upcoming travel dates, can be found in the "About me" section of my Model Mayhem Profile here: [link]

I do freelance portrait/promotional photography for clients, bands, models, actors, etc and my rates are very reasonable. I additionally offer photo retouching services.

I am also often looking for models for my fine art TFCD projects as well and use the casting call section of Model Mayhem

Please feel free to email me anytime with any other questions as well:

thanks!

I must say... I'm absolutely lost in your photos. I love abandoned buildings and the way you have captured them is like a memory; you've captured pieces of forgotten history. It really takes you somewhere else looking at them. The composition is perfect, and you have also really captured the colors and textures beautifully. Great Job!! I really appreciate the work you are doing!

I just wanted to tell you that I really admire your pictures. I love your choices of subject matter -it really speaks to me like few others can.
~Ezra-Bones:iconEzra-Bones: Apr 23, 2007, 6:20:18 PM
Love your gallery. Any advice on how to find an abandoned places to explore? There's an old paper mill in my city. I love it. We never can capture all of its mystery and magic.
