Thumbs up Want to be published in my next book? - 07-26-2006, 03:25 PM


I have a deadline for images and text for my next book of August 15th, problem is I'll be on the road in the Virgin Islands from Aug. 7-14, so my deadline is more like August 6th. I'm sure I can extend the image deadline, so with that said, if you want to be in my next book and get a published tearsheet, send me links to "low res" images, web versions only, do not send or email me high-res.

There is no payment, but you'd get a free book and a very steeply discounted price for any extra copies. More important this is to get you published, perhaps even a full page, and depending how many you submit, several pages.

As an example, George Stumberg from San Antonio has some images, including a full page image in my current book (see my website for the Amazon.com link). It's ultimately the editor's decesion which images are accepted.

I'm just offering this as an opportunity for getting a tearsheet in a book by Amherst Media, my publisher.

Subject content, portrait, lighting, glamour (nude or non-nude is acceptable). All images must have permission to use from you and the model. The book is about glamour photography and there will be some nudity in it, but nothing outlandish. See my first book to get an idea of content.

Thanks, rg sends!
(Sample image that will be in book two, model is April 2006 Playboy Playmate Holley Dorrough, she's also in my current book on the cover.)

No images to offer, but I'll have the three spaghetti with meatballs waiting (extra parmesan of course) for the little ones at Aldinos when you get back into town. Small world sometimes...

Thank you, that is all.

I have to admit that when I saw this yesterday I assumed there would be HUGE numbers of people wanting in. Hell if you could use a horse photo or a "what not to do" pic I would be there in a beat!!!! Where are all you people?

There are some DAMN good shooters here. Holly. Scott. Abel. Afernee ... numbers. Ray. And those are just off the top of my head. I'm waiting. Seriously so many of you guys out there are top notch quality shooters with GREAT images. Snap this up man. Get on the carpet and do a little dance.

If I had ONE photo that could make the cut I would be there. But I suck. So I'm not. You people don't have that excuse.

Now if you need some intro verbiage or a little psychotic photography related rant I'm your man. Have your people contact my pikas.

Prophet out.

I wish I had some glamour photography to submit. But I'm a loser.

I need some new friends, that are both hot AND willing. I have lots of friends that are hot and shy. :)

Hey Matt,
Since I'm right up the street I'll pose for you anytime. I don't look like a regular girl tho. I've got tats and a few scars, mostly on my hands. But you're welcome to photoshop. Or you can use me for practice. :)
