Always looking for new models!

Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes and that is what I am looking for. I am always looking for ladies to feature on my sites and while I enjoy working with professional models I prefer fresh faces. A pleasant appearance and good attitude is what I want in the ladies I work with. If one of my projects below interests you and you think you would like to give it a shot contact me and let’s see if we can not set something up.

While I prefer ladies local to the Huntsville area in North Alabama if you are going to be in the area or can travel here we may be able to set something up.

I want fresh faces, but that is not meant to imply I prefer disposable models where we shoot one time and never again. I plan every shoot in three phases.

Phase one is our introduction. Simple enough this is where we get to know one another this may be one shoot or several. Basic ideas and simple shoots till we are comfortable before spending a lot of time and money planning intense themes.
Phase two is not the sequel or continuation it is The Beginning. This is where we really start to show how well we work together and grow. More imaginative and creative shoots tailored to what we mutually want from the shoots.
The Third and Final Phase is not the end it is The Partnership. I am looking for lasting friendships where we can hopefully shoot and grow for years to come. I have a few ladies I consider to be in this stage. Like with any good friendship how well it works depends on how well we get along. Shoots could still be fairly simple or extremely creative, imaginative and generally intense.

If this sounds good to you and you can spare a few hours a month or even just every few months let me know. I want to get this portfolio as full as my primary one and am extremely interested in featuring one special or preferably a few special models to keep updates coming in regularly. Willing to do content trade working for your website and/or portfolio as well.

Project Details

Non-Adult shoots

DBatesPhoto18up.com is designed to showcase my work that is not ok for young eyes or those that have conflicting views with mine concerning Nudity, Sexuality and Erotic Art. While I am proud of these images I understand they are not for everyone.

This is just a small portion of my Work the majority of my images can be found on www.DBatesPhoto.com If you are interested in modeling with me, but are not interested in any type of adult work I recommend you swing by there to view my work and decide what type of images you would like for us to create. Other than style of photos I shoot the same for both and enjoy both equally so there will never be any pressure to shoot more than you are 100% comfortable with.

Help Networking to advance your career or hobby

I occasionally work with other photographers at group shoots around Huntsville and other areas of North Alabama. Our Group shoots are designed to be friendly to all types of models beginners to experienced professionals that shoot all types of genres. All shoots are Fashion to mild glamour safe for all ages to shoot or view. While the group does allow adult themed shoots all are done on a private basis or at 18+ shoots only where most if not all models have shot with us before.
