Venice Photo and PR

Summer is here and there's no better time to shoot at southern California beaches.  I am a busy glamour photographer, located 8 blocks from the surf in Venice, who likes to work with models as passionate about photography as I am. I am friendly, easy to get along with, and outgoing.
   I do a lot of shoots in my studio, but am up for outdoor and location photography.  I usually start with several clear concepts and “looks” for each session, but I’m always open to suggestions and working with ideas that present themselves.
   New faces are always welcome, although paid shoots always take priority over TF sets.  If you are looking to book a shoot, feel free to shoot an e-mail at jacquesinvenice@gmail.com.

*BTW, MUSE WANTED, in the Santa Monica, Venice, Marina del Rey area!   Rewards = lots of time in front of the camera and a ton of great portfolio shots.

The Biz End of It.   My studio rates are reasonable, especially for models in the early stages of their career.  I provide color-corrected web-sized images and high-resolution retouched JPEGs of the quality in my OMP portfolio.  Please, inquire via e-mail for rates and details.  I’m also open to proposals from models for TFCD sessions—if you have a clear, fresh concept that you can convey to me in a concise e-mail.  It will need to be an idea that will benefit both our portfolios.

No Fine Print Here.  I start out with simple ground rules to avoid confusion.  I’ve had good relationships with all the models I work with and believe that is largely because we observed a few basic principles.
    You must be 20 years old and have documents to prove it.
    Models must sign my simple, fairly standard model release.  I’ll be glad to send it to you in advance.
    Following a shoot, I provide you a CD or DVD of low-res JPEG images from the session.  These are for your inspection to select the final images that you wish me to work on.   
    The “inspection proofs” may not be posted to web sites or distributed. The only images that you may distribute to agencies or post to web sites are those on which I have done final retouch and color correction.  This provision protects both of us from having our names associated with preliminary, unretouched pictures.
    You must pay at least half my fee at the time of the shoot.
