Please read my entire profile before messaging me.
Thanks for stopping by! My name is Tiffany, and I have been modeling since mid December of 2006. Modeling quickly became my biggest passion in life. For the first three years I built my portfolio, working sometimes twelve to fourteen hours straight on TF to build a career out of this from the ground up. From the start I have had no problem pushing myself to the limits or coming up with varying concepts for shoots.
Photographers have often commented that I am definitely different than anyone they've ever worked with, and a blast to be around. I can't count the number of times I've heard "I've never met anyone like you in my life, and I mean that in the best of ways," both in my personal and professional life. I am energetic, creative, driven, professional, and reliable.
My shooting style varies widely, and I have no problem pushing myself to the limits or coming up with varying concepts for shoots. I am the model that will push the limits within reason, that will scale building walls without a net in high heels and lingerie in broad daylight in the middle of a city park, or lay on frozen rivers outdoors in 7 degree weather in the buff, or insert myself into bars and pose on pianos in public while the band is playing (with permission of course), to get a great shot. I do my best work outside of the studio, but work just as well in structure as outside of it.
At first I wasn't sure what I was going to do with this. I saw it as a hobby but didn't yet have a plan for where it was going. After five years experience though, I would love to launch this as a full time career. Currently I am working on several small plans of action that will hopefully help this dream blossom into the full fledged monster I would like it to be. So without further ado, please see below for my specifics.
Website
I am currently working on building my own web site. Please be patient as it will take some time for it to get finished. I will put a notice up when it is launched. In the mean time you can either email me here or at tiffany.lofaro@dovetailstormrider.com
Compensation
Working for free is an Oxymoron.
For the most part I prefer to not do tf shoots. I can not, when this is my only source of income, pay out money to shoot with you without getting anything out of it and going in the hole. I am willing to negotiate rates, though. This depends on what my expenses are to shoot with you. This is how I see it.
IF you are a damn good photographer and I want your images bad enough, I will pay you.
IF you ask me for TF and do not pay me for my time, you WILL NOT get a release to sell the pics. WHY? Because I will not be taken advantage of. If I pay gas to get to you, give you copyright and release, do not get the right to sell the pics, YOU get the right to sell the pics, and I don't get paid for my time, well then what am I getting out of this? You get everything while I get nothing but pictures which are useless to me exept something pretty to look at.
IF you pay me for my time, I will give you copyright and release to sell the pics.
I am not a picture whore, dont act like a picture pimp.
TRAVEL
I am available for travel as long as my scheudle permits depending on my financial situation. If expenses are paid, I'm all for it.
Escort
I prefer to shoot with escort unless I have worked with you before. My husband escorts me to shoots and he does not interfere in them. He has been known to be helpful to them. Please understand that this is the web, and I don't know you any more than you know me. Though I don't allow the horror stories to slow me down, I don't want to become one, either. This is non negotiable for me. If an escort is NOT an interference on a shoot, I do not see the problem with me having someone I know present if your motives are truly well intended, unless you have something to hide. Hopefully we can all work together to make shoots productive for all involved.
What I Expect Out of You and What You Can Expect From Me.
I expect photographers to act professionally at all times. I expect what is agreed upon to be delivered in a timely fashion. On all shoots I expect images back that are edited, retouched, and or photo shopped, or permission to have them done. Raw images are not suitable for portfolio usage. Please understand that I am not here to obtain unsatisfactory images.
I expect releases to include all specifics of what is agreed upon, and I expect both of us to have completed, signed copies of all contracts and releases. All releases and contracts should include who owns copyright, what the pictured can and can not be used for, both the model and photographer's rights, compensation, both present and future, liability measures, reproduction and use release agreements, and free will and consent.
I promise to be reasonable, but if we are going to do business together, we will do so with equal respect for each other. I will not sign a release unless I am compensated in a fair and reasonable way and I agree with it in full. Specifics in this regard are negotiable.
Please understand that these stipulations are not meant to be offensive. However, I will not be taken advantage of and I would like things to remain respectful, fair, and professional.
Also, I expect images back, edited as needed, in a timely manner. I have had photographers abscond with the editing job, give images back eight months after the shoot, and even not provide pictures at all. This is not something I am inclined to be happy about.
I do not mean this to be offensive to anyone, but this is a professional website. This is not a game to me. Hopefully it is not a game to you.
