On occasion I need models for a variety of sessions including:
- Marketing Materials
- Portfolio Builds
- Magazine Assignments
- Competition Work
- Workshops
I accept models on what is known as TFP (trade for pay). In consideration of your services as a model, I will provide copies to you of any images that I fully retouch and use. Depending on the type of session, you may also have access to additional images that you may purchase, if interested. If you are a working model, whether signed with an agency or working freelance, I will provide you with digital copies of any images that I choose to fully retouch for use in your model portfolio. You will also be provided with watermarked images for social media use of any image that I choose to fully retouch and use.
At times I may need a model or models that will fit a specific age category or genre of photography. I may need someone who is a specific size and can fit into a specific outfit, or I may be looking for someone with a very specific look for a competition piece. I photograph males and females of all body shapes, sizes, and skin color. I believe that there is beauty, both inward and outward, to be found in everyone. When I ask for specifics (age, dress size, etc) it is only so that I have a working database of interested parties and enough information that I will know who I can call on for specific model needs.
If you are interested in being put on my call list, please fill out and submit the form below.
Once I receive your information, if I call on you and you accept an assignment, you will be required to sign a contract and model release. A parent’s signature is required for anyone under the age of 18. While all session fees are waived for model calls, in some cases you may be required to pay for hair and/or makeup services.
