Well hello again everyone! For the last few days, I went out and did a very nice cleaning of my Deviations. There were simply some selfies and photos that really had no purpose on here so I took them off like previous IDs and just shit I threw on here a few years ago because I could. Anything Sparky Burns related were taken off since that project is no more. I ended up deleting close to 200 deviations. Which is good.

During this, I also went though all my cosplay and modeling pics and made it so the download isn't free. Anything with my face on it, I'd just feel better that way. 

Afterwards, I organized my gallery as well. As you can see there are only a few photos under "Featured" now and the links to folders on the left. The ones I left on featured at my way of showing what I have to display and show in the folders on the left. A sneak peek per say. I'm hoping this will make it more organized and easier to find things. 

I was able to upload my one photoshoot with Ken Corey. It's honestly just me as myself. Go check it out! It's already been given a huge and positive response. 

Also, since I have the Core Membership and my photos seem to be taking off and popular, I want to ask you guys if you would interested in me selling prints? Keep in mind, they'd be some of the regular photoshoots like the vintage one and the one I just posted recently because unfortunately, I cannot sell any of the cosplay images since they are characters under copyright and simply put, I could get in huge trouble by selling them without permission. But if you all are interested, please share your opinions. I wouldn't mind making a little extra money that way. 

Thanks again for sticking by! I appreciate all the support! Let me know how you feel about prints!

Hi!  Please forgive the late response.  If you were selling prints, I'd certainly be interested.  You're incredible.  You're talented.  I'd like to show my support.  I understand your point about the cosplay images.   I've seen others sell prints of cosplay images online and at comic book conventions and wonder to their logic how they get around it or claim to.   If you go through with this, may I put out some questions and/or points to consider looking out for your interest (and please forgive me if you already thought of these and have it covered).   Do you own the prints you sell or the photographer?  I'd hate to see you in any dispute with regards to ownership;  I've read stories and heard a few from others where there were issues with the photographer which led to lengthy disputes;  I don't want that to happen to you.   Would you sell the prints directly or via Etsy or Storenvy or some other online store?   Would you have time to sign/autograph the prints?  How busy are you?  Would your "store" be open all the time or only as your schedule permits?   Privacy/Security:  Would you have to get a post office box or not put your (full) return address on the envelope?  (I'd like to think your fans are respectful of your privacy, but would not want you stalked or harassed.  No offense to others reading this.)   Would others be helping you with this (and are they reliable), or would you being doing this all by yourself?   Would there be any other cons to doing this?  Where could this go?   Would you take requests for custom work or requests from other photographers?  

Thank you for reading.   I hope it works out.   I hope I didn't offend you in any way;  I'm sure you already posed these questions to yourself.   My deep respect for you and sincere best wishes.
