Hello fellow collaborators;

I'm a photographer in Toronto who is gearing up for another summer of model photography. I shoot agency and freelance models in a variety of nature (ie. not studio) locations. Last summer I retained a puritan approach with minimal effects to my work. This year I'd love to go full-out with some digital illusion.

I'm looking for a matte painter or general visual effects artist who can insert some of their art into my photograph(s), either adding to the existing scenery or making the photograph part of a larger image. Here's a very quick example (link (http://imgs.abduzeedo.com/files/tutorials/reader-tut-matte//4861495740_7aba724667_b.jpg))

This is a no-stress, artistic venture. This is not my day-job and it is completely creative-driven. I'm not looking to dictate what is added to the photograph (EDIT: although I can dictate if you prefer). I would assume that the imagery being added will rely on inspiration by the photograph itself. I'm open to suggestions on angles and scenery to make the job easier.

Please take a look at some of my work from last summer (link (http://www.flickr.com/photos/danielfrome/sets/72157623554049993/show/)) to determine if you like my photographs.

In my opinion it would be better if you did specify what you would like to see done with your shots at least in a general way. Not that a collaborator wouldn't have ideas but it's always easier to start with a base idea and then build up from there.

And as mentioned, very nice work.

If you are serious about finding help, the suggestion made above might be worth considering.

could link/post a image you want to work on and do a second version with a rough sketch over on top to give an example of what you would like to see. Or a quick copy paste of web images that have structure and landscape you are interested in seeing added.

Photoshop based forums would also be a good place to look for assist.
