A non-smoker. 100% drug free and always have been. I barely drink alcohol although I adore port wine. I want more life...not less. I'm not hiding from anything or anyone. I employ proper dental hygiene 3 times a day, shower 2-3 times per day, zero credit card debt, no past bankruptcies.
I either wear very expensive suits...I get my suits handmade made by Oxxford Clothes on 5th Avenue in New York, by Armani Collezioni, or I purchase Hart Schaffner Marx off the rack....or just simple Dickies type pants and jackets. I don't own any type of clothing in-between.
I love calmness and peace in my everyday life.
Interested in alternative medicine and natural healing. I eat healthy food at home shopping 100% at Whole Foods, Trader Joes and the local outdoor farmers market. Love to cook. I eat out once per day. I eat 80% vegan + raw/live food..but I also eat all types of ethnic foods such as Thai, Indian, Middle Eastern, Greek, Japanese, Mexican, Italian, Chinese, Peruvian, and Salvadorian. I know the best hole in the walls in Los Angeles. I admit, I love chicken lovers burritos from El Polo Loco. Love hummus, avocados, red and green curry, port wine, baklava, dried cranberries, and goat cheese!
I'm lucky enough to have the most beautiful, eccentric, and interesting long time friends who I love and cherish...most are artists, writers, architects, and filmmakers.
I am a closet architect and have plans on building an advanced modern home of my own design in a few years. I dream of opening restaurants. Interested in flipping houses...and have been involved in real estate marketing for a top real estate broker in South Orange County California for 12 years.
GENERAL DISLIKES IN PEOPLE: Deceit, liars, manipulators, and people who can't follow through with their promises.

Born February 2nd, Aquarius, 6’ 4 ½” tall with blue eyes.
I live in a 1700 sq ft artist loft downtown Los Angeles with my beautiful 23 month old son (2 on May 9th 2008) who I have 50% legal custody of but actually have had him about 80% of the time since birth which I love!!! Currently 100%. I am open to a new healthy relationship with someone who is kind, caring, has common sense, and of very sound mind. (if not...don't bother please)
You will find that I am down to earth and approachable. Email me and say hello for any reason. Please engage me in conversation. Always seeking like-minded humans to share life, art and thoughts with.

MODELS / NON-MODELS:
Working on several photographic fine art series and coffee table book projects. Seeking subjects of all ages, looks, and body types/shapes. Especially subjects with some type of unique or unusual/uncommon body features such as puffy areolas, huge labia, huge clitoris, bubble butt, huge tongue, see-through skin (veins), etc.
I shoot film with a 35mm Leica R9, Contax RTS III, and Contax T2 and for Medium format film I use a Contax 645. I also use alternative format cameras: Diana toy plastic 120film camera, Lomo, Minox, and Minolta 16mm. My digital everyday digital camera is a Leica.
::MODELS::WANTED::
::MOSTLY SEEKING UNIQUE MODELS::
::SEEKING ALL TYPES OF UNIQUE BODIES AND LOOKS.
This fine art series is not exploitive in any negative way. The photographic images are merely a marriage of your unique body and my own artistic vision. I personally feel these unique ...or should I say... not so unique body features are of a rare particular beauty. There are no names used...the shoot is completely discrete and private...you will have my trust. I take my work seriously. Whether you are comfortable with your body or not you can be a part of this beautiful series and immortalized forever in the pages of my fine art book.
This is for a serious fine art photography book + art gallery showings
I have shown work in over 50+ art galleries and venues world wide.
:NO FACES SHOWN::NO NAMES USED::TOTALLY PRIVATE & DESCRETE SHOOT::About 75% of the subjects I have photographed for this fine art series have never modeled before
Any age over 18. Any body type.
You can live anywhere in the world, I travel a lot.
$$$$$ Some $$ compensation for certain models / situations. $$$$$$
