I would speak with a good roofer first, usually about 1 1/2" to 2" rise over a foot is what they want for a folded standing seam metal roof around here, depends how high the seam is, shorter runs can probably be done with tapered foam by the roofers. They will possibly know of decent framers to do the rest of the wood work. I assume you are planning to use existing trusses? Talk to the roofers about the flashing details also, check out some other houses they did for ideas.

Not sure if you will need a building permit for modifying the roof, load should be less?

I did a low slope with a parapet around to make it safer to clean, and no eaves trough to deal with, but I do prefer the look of a thin overhang metal roof.
