Shooting with me details

My name is Pete. I am a professional photographer in the Austin Texas area. I have worked with over 100 models. I believe that the strength of my work is best represented by my detailed knowledge of light. I use specific lighting techniques to capture the beauty of a person. My most outstanding work is my Hollywood Glamour and Black and White photographs. I specialize in two types of photo shoots: pinup and boudoir.

At bottom of page there is a button to "Request a Shoot" with me.

The majority of my work is done in my studio. I also enjoy outdoor, location, or nature setting shoots. My studio is near Oltorf and South Lamar. There is a wardrobe space, bathroom, and two shooting areas. I have speakers for Ipods, if you’d like to bring your selection of music. I am equipped with twelve backdrops, four Hollywood lights for the old time look, and six professional strobe lights that have a natural sunlight look. Wardrobe that I can provide includes teddies, corset, stockings, gloves, pearls, hats, and other lingerie. The studio has a rollup garage door to take photos of you and your favorite motorcycle or car. I will cater the shoot to what you enjoy doing the most. Therefore, bring multiple outfits, a lot of accessories, shoes, and props. Do you have a cute dress or club outfit that you’ve wanted some good photos in? Bring them. Our collaborative ides will create amazing photographs.

Every photo shoot is unique. Each model/client has a different objective or vision, so the cost per shoot depends on your requests. My base rate $50.00 per 1/2 hour.

  1. If the photos are for online dating sites, or myspace. I would recomend a half hour shoot. This will give enough time for 1 outfit. This will result in 20 raw photos with 1-3 outstandig shots that you will want to post. For standard shoots I recommend a two-hour shoot. This gives enough time for 3-4 outfits. This will result in l00-150 raw pictures, with 10-25 outstanding photos. Remember if you are late, we will have less time to shoot, being early is better for you. I am willing to work past the agreed upon time if you are willing to pay for the over time. My half hour rate is $50.00.
  2. There is two ways to receive your photos. You will have access to your profile on my website to download your photos. This method is less hassle than creating a cd and mailing it to you. If you require a cd of your photos, it is an additional $25.00.
  3. Shoots that take place at my studio or outdoor shoots within the Austin area are no extra cost. If you want to shoot at a location, it will be an extra charge. Tell me the details and I will give you a quote.
  4. I do minimal photo editing. My basic belief is to get it right before I click the shutter. Therefore, if I edit any photos, it would only enhance the picture. I will enhance lighting, remove a dust spot or pimple, crop the picture, and change some pictures from color to Black and White or Sepia.
  5. You may bring a hair/makeup artist with you to the shoot. I can also provide a hair/makeup artist for a fee.
  6. You can receive your pictures in two sizes. “Web Size” is perfect for Myspace, cell phones, electronic picture frames, and emailing to friends. “Print Size” is not good for email, but is great for printing at places like “Holland Photo imaging” and “Precision Camera & Video.” If more than two “Print Size” photos are requested, there will be an additional charge.

I am open to the model/client bringing an adult escort to the photo shoot. However, it is not a safe environment for young children if it is a must that they accompany you. There will be wiring on the floor and equipment that can easily be damaged.
