Some of my models...

Male Models in Chicago

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET OUTSIDE AND

START SHOOTING AGAIN! UGH!

I am so tired of being cooped up indoors, shooting

models on my couch and on my bed! -

Well, OK, so it's NOT THAT BAD!

But I love doing things outdoors and I have 3 guys

lined up who claim they are exhibitionists and don't mind

being naked outside! That will be a lot of fun! -

A good model really does have to be a bit of an exhibtionist.

Someone shy usually doesn't photograph well.

Male Models By Michael Snell

I think I have a pretty good for fresh talent.

A lot of my most successful models are guys

I hand picked off the street and have never modeled before.

One of my models left Michigan after I photographed him,

and moved to New York, where he was recently featured on

RUNNER magazine, he does work for J. Crew and Donna Karan,

and has a small part in the new movie THE GOOD SHEPHERD.

Adam Bouska, (above ) started as model and

later found himself in back of the camera, shooting

young and upcoming models. Adam now lives in

California and has a calendar coming out later this year!

Paul (above) was discovered

by me, stocking shelfs at Sams Club!

John Murphy (above ) got his body in tip top

shape for our photo shoot. I was able to get him a spread

in MENS WORKOUT, which I shot, and was able to get

him a $10,000 advertising campaign for a

major sports suppliment company.

I am always looking for fresh faces and great bodies!

If you are in Chicago or coming to visit, look me up!

"Photography is very powerful in the fact that I

can freeze a moment in time. If I live to be eighty I will be

able to pick up one of my photographs and go back to that

moment and remember every

detail of how that image came to be."

"I look at photography as a series of captured moments.

Location shoots give me the freedom for interesting

backgrounds and composition, which all help convey a

feeling from the model. Magic imagery happens when

there is chemistry, an energy, between the model

and the photographer. Capturing these moments,

makes an exceptional photograph."

"So Many Men - So Little Film.....

I need to switch to digital!"
