ABOUT ME
Cork based photographer interested in fashion, lifestyle, glamour and figure photography.

If you're interested in working with me, feel free to contact me using the folio32 messaging service or by email at tmerz@gmx.net Thanks for taking the time to view my profile.

I should add that where possible, before agreeing to shoot with anyone (even paying clients) I prefer to have a face-to-face meeting where the model and I can look at some photos, discuss some ideas and generally decide whether we both feel comfortable enough to shoot together. I feel this meeting is an important step and it ensures that when we do work together the results are successful.

Best thing I've learned to do is to just ignore users that can't be bothered to spell right (or use a spell checker, a feature of any browsers nowadays), use text speak or spam the blogs with silly jokes or other inappropriate content. People like that obviously don't take their work seriously and s... View More

I think you're forgetting an important part of the equation, without which it's impossible to proceed. It's vital that you include "Z" in your calculations. If you need to you can always use "n" as an unknown variable in order to help you calculate values for "X" and "Y".

If you're asking the questions that you are, then perhaps you're really not ready to start shooting with a medium format digital camera like the H2D. I too would dearly love to start shooting with a medium format digital camera, but simply cannot justify the cost of doing so at the moment. And ultim... View More

High praise indeed Tony! Much appreciated. Are you sure you're not viewing my work on a monochrome optimized monitor, LOL Smile Seriously though, thanks for taking the time to go through my full gallery here!

Thanks Thorsten.   Louise is stunning - probably as naturally pretty a model as I have worked with.   A second shoot was always on the cards, and I only hope I do her justice!
