Hello, I am Dan Wickham, long-time 35mm/120 B&W film photographer who switched to color digital about three years ago. My A.A. degree is in technical photography (mainly B&W darkroom) and my B.F.A. is in fine art studio work (mainly figure studies and environmental portraits).

I am currently seeking a model to partner with for regular shoots (every 2 or 3 weeks). Preferably someone who: is female, lives in town, is open to location and studio work, has creative ideas for collaborative efforts.

When working with different models all the time, I am limited in how much experimentation with lighting and location I can do (paying customers want results, and don't tolerate mediocre images). TF shoots open this up a bit, but most models can't commit to a regular shooting schedule. So my quest begins.

In order to find someone, I am opening up my schedule a bit to allow for test shoots of anyone who is interested. The last time I did a partnership like this it resulted in a fantastic solo show, I'm hoping that this time will result it either another show or a book.

You have a great gallery :)

Ah, just as I suspected! Your experience and darkroom training show in everything you do. I also suspect that you've probably taught or currently teach, as you seem to have a high refinement to your work that so often comes through sharing one's art and skill with others.

Your gallery works offer us a look at your vast pool of creativity. I can understand why you are in demand!

Thanks for sharing with us.

Sometimes I miss the smell of fixer in the morning... The BFA program I went through had a very large critique component. No teaching though, just a whole lot of peer reviewing.

Thank you again for taking the time to comment.

(Props on the Arlo Guthrie quote on your profile).

Yes, there is no place like the darkroom and no wonder like watching a nice B&W image come to life. Or, looking at a negative and choosing a nice Ilford or Aghfa print paper that will become one with the paper. Yes, that's what I do miss.

And yes, "Alice's Restaurant" rocks (the long version, that is).

Thanks for sharing your fine work!
