J.Bird Cremeans

My caricatures are doing great these days. I'm booking up months ahead and taking in commissions from customers who find me over the internet. My etsy stores are doing well too. I don't have to advertise much since I'm the only caricature artist in the Tri-State area. For that I am thankful.

However I love to take pictures and would like to take up photography full-time. The area here is saturated with photographers wanting the same things that I do. Many of them are great and creative. But with the good come the bad who think that the most expensive camera they can afford makes them photographers instead of just camera owners.

But I don't complain about it. I just try and think outside of the box. There is an awesome photographer in WV named Joe McNeemar. I've looked at his work and now know what I want to strive for and he has given me some ideas I'd like to try.

Here is a project I'm starting this month:

2010 High School Seniors

I am looking for models and reps for the 2010 school year.

Needing to build up my portfolio with quality and creativity I am in need of high school seniors to model for me at locations that I choose and times and dates that I choose. All I ask is that you trust me and let me do what I want to do: take awesome pictures of you to show around.

What you get:

Free sitting fee in exchange for your use of your images

Free proofs

Web quality images to share on social sites

Affordable prints if you choose to order

Senior cards to pass out to your friends

Check out these samples here to see my work:

I only ask you to give me complete artistic control.

If you are interested please send a pictures of yourself to my email address:

The seniors that I pick will be contaced by me so please leave a phone number so I can call you.
