Matthew W Ichiyasu

I won't waste your time with a long, drawn out exposition about me, my feelings, my methods, or my inspirations. I am going to operate on the assumption that we're all intelligent adults, and that if anyone wants more information about any of the above-listed topics, they will message me and ask. (Messages I will happily return, just for the record).

I will, however, list the pertinent information that most of you probably want.

Q: How much experience do you have?
A: I have been shooting as a hobby for over 10 years, and professionally for over 3 years.

Q: How many model shoots have you done?
A: It is impossible to say exactly, but at the time of writing this section, I have done over 50 shoots for the express purpose of photographing a human model. I have done many, many more where architecture, landscapes, or objects were the intended subjects, and human models were included.

Q: What are your rates?
A: $65 an hour, $250 for a half day (4-5 hours of work), $475 for a full day (8-10 hours of work). I shoot in RAW format, and development of the RAWs is included in the base rates.

Q: Are you available for complex Photoshop work? (Centerfold-style makeover, green-screen replacement, ect).
A: Yes. Prices will vary based on project. Message me with specifics.

Q: Do you shoot weddings?
A: Yes. Packages start at $750. Message me for more details.

Q: Will you shoot time for print?
A: Yes, depending on the circumstances. If I feel that the project you're proposing benefits my portfolio, I will absolutely shoot TFP.

Q: Do you have experience shooting Boudoir/Lingerie/Nudes/Fetish?
A: Yes, and examples of work are available upon request. I do not have very many examples here in an attempt to keep this profile semi family friendly.

Q: Why don't you have a premium profile?
A: I pay to maintain my own, personal portfolio site... I have no need to pay twice for a portfolio.
