Tip hat Photographer Looking for Clowns

Hi clowns,
I'm a photographer looking for clowns to photograph for a project. I will give a signed 16x20 to any clown who volunteers to be photographed. I've scoured the internet and couldn't find any great professional pictures of clowns so I decided to start this project photographing clowns in their various elements. Please contact me if you are interested. I expect to travel to meet you. Thanks for your time! Please contact me if interested.

Sincerely,
Aaron Draper

Please expand on this. There are already a few talented photographers that assist clowns needing pictures for marketing or other needs. What is it that you are visualizing please?

Thanks for your questions Fitz! I'm working on a book project specifically about clowns. I plan on spending the next two years photographing clowns doing everyday things. The more elaborate and detailed the costumes the better. I already have many clowns signed up to work with me, including a pregnant clown (very cute) but I'm always looking for more. The final output should be a hardbound book. So, while I'm sure there are other photographers who assist clowns for marketing, this is quite different. I hope to see clowns as more mainstream in marketing etc. For example, when is the last time you saw an editorial in Vanity Fair with clowns as the subject? Thanks and looking forward to hearing from all that are interested.

Thanks, that helps clear things up. I would be interested in participating, or at least talking to you further about your project.
