Hello to all my MM visitors!
Welcome to my portfolio! I am interested in helping models, dancers and actors get the images they need to build their portfolios while working on creative images that expand my portfolio too. I take a professional approach to working with you and want all involved to have fun at the same time! I have over 15 years experience that reaches back into the “old film days.” I book paid assignments first then TF* shoots on a more selective basis.
HOW TO START
> Contact Me! <
If you are interested in planning a shoot with me, message me and include the following information:
1) Theme
If you have something in mind, describe it as best you can. Many times the goal is to just build your portfolio with new images. Let me know your thoughts and we can work from there. Typical categories: Headshots, Fashion, Glamour, Editorial, Swimwear, Lingerie, Implied / Nudes.
2) Makeup / Hair Stylist
Great makeup and hair styling really makes an image! Many models are able to do their own but some shoot themes require special artistic talents. In those cases, I have selected artists I work with that do exceptional work.
3) Days and Times Available
Start by letting me know your preferred days and times so we can set an exact date from there. On my business web page, I keep a calendar where booked dates are shown. Any shoot time I specify does not include makeup or dressing time.
4) Valid Contact Info and Shoot Confirmation
I must have a working phone number and email address for you before I book the shoot. Confirmation with you by phone or email at least 48 hrs before the scheduled shoot time is needed or I will consider the shoot canceled.
WHAT YOU GET
For paid shoots, we will negotiate costs for services and deliverables before the shoot. You will receive the edited images in Print-Ready and Web-Ready format on a CD. Alternately, I may put images on my web page for your review and download. You will get what you need including any supporting releases or paperwork.
For TF* shoots, you get my same level of quality work but I limit the shoot time to about 45 minuets. I will select 3 to 5 images from the shoot for editing which I see as the strongest. You will get the final images by email in about a week. With my time being more limited now, I accept very few TF shoots so describe your ideas as best you can when contacting me.
OTHER IMPORTANT STUFF
> Model Release and Legal ID <
I do have a model release form I will ask you to sign before we start shooting. If you want to see a copy before hand, let me know. I will require a valid form of ID to verify your age.
> Gas or Travel Expenses <
I am unable to cover these costs for a TF* shoot.
> Expenses <
Any costs needed to perform the shoot have to be received before the shoot can be booked. Studio reservation or MUA fees cannot be refunded and will be forfeited if the shoot is canceled.
> Friend Requests <
If I have sent you a FR, I like your work and want to watch what you are going to do next! If you send me a FR, I will assume you have the same thoughts.
> References <
Feel free to contact any of the models I list below under Credits for a reference.
> Escorts <
For female models, I actually prefer you bring someone along you trust. This keeps us both comfortable when meeting for the first time. Be forewarned, I often will put them to work holding a light or something!
