Unfortunately dislclaimers are now needed, please read carefully and clearly. I ask that you understand these two points before contacting or working with me:
Models are not to modify my work in any way. The way I process the images is the way I intend for them to look. Please respect the hard work of the photographer.
please note*
Models I will not release a full cd of images, you will only recieve the best ones this is a standard industry practice, PLEASE understand this.
TIPS FOR MODELS:
"As a photographer u should make me chase you NOT LEAD you!" Nigel Barker (noted fashion photographer)
1) Study and master your Poses: Watch vids on Youtube and practice in the mirror. Yes, you will look funny, yes you might even be embarrsed but in the end you will have a leg up on the competition. People are looking at your photo to see something. You must give them something to look at. In human interaction, body language says alot, learn to say something with yours.
2) Practice facial expressions: A blank face is not attractive, Think about it, think about a blank face starring back at you and how that would feel...ok, I think I made my point. Smiles and such, without sounds also communicate to the viewer. The models who are often the most successful have something to say that they relate to the viewer.
3) Educate yourself: You say you want to be a Fashion model, read Vogue. You want to be a porn star, watch Porn. There is so much you can learn by example by watching what other people do and studying them, being able to emmulate them and then adding your own personal touches can make you not only knowledgeable about where you really want to go, but you could help you gain knowledge about how you're gonna help yourself get there!
I don't even know where to began so I will just say thank you to everybody. I love all my models, well most of them.
