Experience:
I have had a career spanning almost 35 years as an internationally acclaimed award-winning fine-art and erotic photographer. I am currently looking for a female muse to work with on a fairly regular basis, to collaborate on projects for mutual benefit with image styles covering the whole range of what is in my portfolio on here. This opportnity would also suit a relatively new model looking for help to build her portfolio, as no previous experience is necessary. Where possible I prefer to shoot images that tell a story - often with a humourous or kinky twist. I was runner up International Erotic Photographer of the Year in both 2008 and 2010 and have been the subject of numerous magazine interviews. Many of my images have also been included in prestigious publications and coffee table books, with titles such as "The World's Greatest Erotic Art of Today" where I am the only photographer world-wide to have images printed in all four published editions - kudos indeed when you see how many of the world's other well-known names have had images selected for inclusion! I am also an accredited contributor shooting regularly for US Hustler's magazine publishing group, and am always on the lookout for new faces for the well-paid magzine shoots. But you won't find those images in my profile on here as the magazine requires content that is more hardcore than I normally shoot! Examples of my more conventional photography has appeared in publications such as "The Worlds Greatest Black & White Photography," numerous editions of "The Photography Yearbook” and even BBC TV's Countryfile Calendar. I usually have at least two sets of images on exhibition in galleries at any one time. I am a member of the international professional judging panel for two photography competition websites where over $2500 prize money per month is awarded to winning photographers. I am also an Honorary Fellow, with numerous images nominated for numerous Black and White Spider Awards, as well as being a member of The Gulid of Erotic Photograpgers, The Association of Erotic Artists, and of the Royal Photographic Society. I undertake commissioned work such as shooting book covers, illustrating novels, as well as undertaking personal projects of my own that lead to print sales and publication. I'm currently working with an author on an illustrated novel re-writing Cinderella from the evil sister's point of view! I'm also compiling a body of fine-art images, conveying a degree of subtle eroticism, shot in sepia and based on a captive/damsel in distress theme for gallery representation in the US and UK, publication in book form and a related collectors’ fine-art website that offers limited edition prints for sale.

Comments:
If you are a model, have a look at my images on here and at my websites: alternative-images.com and suffering4art.com and get in touch if you'd like to work with me. As well as one-off shoots, I'd particularly like to hear from models who live close enough to Nottingham to collaborate with me on ongoing projects shot over a period of time. This work is different to my day to day commissioned work and as such is speculative in nature. Depending on the models' wishes this work can be paid, or based on shared profits (from publication fees, gallery sales, or private pose to order commissions), or simply an opportunity to have personal access to some of my images without having to pay for them! Please don't contact regarding paid work, unless you'll be the one that's paying! As when shooting commissioned assignments I book models that I've previously tested, worked with, or ones supplied by an agency. I am also available to shoot privately commissioned work ranging from bespoke wall portraits, erotic and fine-art 'pose-to-order' images, specific images for model portfolios, and commercial work.

worked with Alt Images yesterday, he is an outstanding photographer, knows what he wants from the shoot, even comes with a list (very organised) He's a lovely guy, puts you right at ease even in the most alternative of shots, would reccommend and would love to work with him again.

What can I say about Paul? One of the most creative people I have ever come across. He has an incredible imagination and produces unique and stunning images. We have begun a collaboration with fetish-ballet themes and I am continually excited by the ideas we come up with. More shoots planned. I would highly reccommend Paul as a photgrapher. A true gentleman and talented photgrapher.

I worked with Paul this week on a shoot at his home. Everything was arranged easily prior to the shoot and he was prompt collecting me from the station. His ideas were awesome and he was great at directing me in a genre i'm not hugely experienced with. I can't wait to see what he comes up and I'd gladly work with him again.

ps. he makes an ace cuppa!
