Kickstarter

For over 30 years I have been photographing people for personal custom portraits from the demure to the erotic. This book is a combination of many years of developing a different technique to photograph my clients. Having been born in the magic city of Miami Beach, Florida I wanted to incorporate our light, water and sensuality in my images. I wanted to create images that would incorporate all of those elements in a coffee table book and exhibition. Also as an inspiration to those who want to create personal work of art of themselves that will last a lifetime, or to attend one of my workshops so they can learn from my techniques and developed a style of their own.

“DirtyGirls” Portraits in Water  is a photographic coffee table book of beautiful portraits of water & light, on the human form. Photographed in the ocean of Miami Beach, Florida. These images are purely for your eye enjoyment, they have no hiding meaning, only the tranquility of the water, light and body. The images are photographed at sunrise and sunset using the sun as my light, the water as my stage and my bodies as my inspiration.

My Kickstarter funding goal reflects the minimum cost of putting together a  11"x13" 80 page hard cover high quality photographic book, an exhibition in South Beach, Florida and continue to improve my photographic workshops. My goal is to raise $10,000 for printing, publishing, and distributing the "DirtyGirls" coffee table book to the people who helped fund this project. 

In addition to producing this book and exhibition I am also raising funds to continue teaching my art and techniques to students around the world. I have been teaching photographic workshops out of my home for over 10 years and would like to expand the quantity and quality of my workshops. To open a workshop program that runs thru-out the year and eventually to have a full accredited  photography school.

A portion of funding goes to producing my book and the balance goes to printing of reward images, shipping, Kickstarter fees and producing images for my show.  My profit’s will come from custom portraits and my workshops that people will book because of the "DirtyGirls" coffee table book.

We want to thank you and Kickstarter for the opportunity to present “DirtyGirls” Portraits in Water for all to enjoy.
