'e'
'e' is a photographer residing in Birmingham, Alabama. He's been a professional photographer for almost two decades now but has only recently started shooting art work, which he describes as shooting for himself (as opposed to shooting for a client). He works with Nikon digital bodies and a Phase Back attached to his Mamiya RZ.

It all started with black & white portraits and landscapes which he processed in the basement of his first house. He developed a love for shooting and printing during this time. So, it wasn't exactly a crapshoot when he decided to migrate into photography fulltime after doing several years of real estate management. He initially worked in a lab and then began assisting a top photographer in his area. All the while he was building his client base, and eventually. after branching out on his own, he he was working 60 hours a week, traveling with and managing a team of creative's, and running a big studio. He shot everything from piles of dust to outdoor furniture to celebrities such as LeBron James (for Powerade). His new professional life was fun, exciting and always different. But slowly, over the years, "e' felt like his commercial work was sucking the creativity from his soul. He felt like he was shooting to 'please the man' and 'the man' didn't always want the best shot.

So he ventured more seriously in fine art photography and eventually into artistic erotica. This new direction was something of a search for meaning. He wanted to probe deeper into his subject's inner realm rather just focus on the outside.

When shooting erotica 'e' prefers not to direct his subjects but prefers to let them
express themselves. "I want my pictures to have baggage.", he says. "I don't usually get the prettiest picture of the model but I try to get something that speaks of a deeper darker beauty ... or sometimes tragedy or sadness."
