*knock, knock* Housekeeping!

Not that I'm a big fan of rules & stuff, but I just want to put a few things out there about the project:

1. Since we'll be doing photos in public areas, no severe nudity...if you wouldn't show that tattoo to your mum's bridge club, I'm gonna guess it's not right for public consumption.

2. Should you wish to show off your tattooed bits, message me first. I might be able to find a way to shoot it. But most likely I won't. Cause that's how I roll.

3. Hateful words/images/etc. Keep 'em covered. I won't photograph 'em. However,  I might give you an atomic wedgie for your neanderthal choices.

4. You won't be paid for your posing. Sorry, it's an art project. "Payment" is in the form of a digital copy of the photo of your tattoo. And maybe a hug. Or two.

5. Real tattoos only, please. Though I do love henna & temporary tattoos...

Park YOUR tattoo

I've been looking for a summer project & here it is....

Portraits of the tattooed masses in various parks around Toronto. Sounds simple enough, right? Later on I'll give it the 35mmMonkey touch & hopefully have an exhibit later this year/ early next year.

What I'll be doing via this blog is announcing the day, time and park I'll be shooting in. All you have to do is show up, sign a release, and have a few photos of yourself and your ink shot. Depending on the number of people who show up, your time commitment would be less than an hour 15 minutes. All who participate will receive digital copies of their photos.

Sneak previews will be posted throughout the summer, cause heck, why not?
