Absolutely NO TFP requests. I am a full time student and this is my only source of income. Please consider this when inquiring. My rates are reasonable and negotiable for local paid shoots. Also, below you will find other forms of TF I will accept to select photographers. Thank you.

Please, Read My Bio before inquiring for a shoot.
I have a model fee.
Negotiations? Yes.
I'm currently going to school full-time which is why I can no longer afford any TF unless I'm traveling.

Music equipment. (should be worth a day's shoot)
A sloppy jalopy. (should be worth a day's shoot)

a flight RT Chicago or New York
Workshops:

Me:
I'm always pleasant to work with, bringing positive energy to a shoot. I'm very down to earth and appreciate creativity in original work. I take my work seriously while still having fun with it. I have determination in positive execution of a shoot. I can incorporate many different looks, styles, concepts, and emotions. I work well when refreshed with new, creative and original ideas and with music. I play well with others. So if you have crazy ideas, don't be afraid to ask. big_smile
Btw, I DO NOT CANCEL.
I am also available to do sound for short films and soundtracks including sound effects.
Glamor?
Yes, only as far as Maxim/Playboy style. Clothed - swim/lingerie. NO GLAMOR NUDES UNLESS it's conceptually artistic, and well executed. I have nothing against it. But I will be very selective if inquired. I don't only model for the money. I'm a true believer in loving my career.
Erotic?
Yes, only with select photographers that shoot in a specific style that can represent me as the person that I am. Again, I don't only model for the money. I'm a true believer in loving my career. And self-expression as a model is important to me.
With other models?
Yes, and we must compliment eachother, and I must have some sort of communication with him/her/them before the shoot date. chemistry is key to execute a "real" photo.
Inquiries:
I am available for Hire, and I am always open to negotiations. Please send me a private message for inquires.
I like to prepare mentally as well as physically. Therefore, I plan in advance, and don't like to cancel.
Please include when and where the shoot will be, its contents, and shoot duration when inquiring.
Terms:
Negotiations for TF are open only if I have worked with you before, if you were referred to me by a photographer or model I know, or if I am traveling to your City and may trade for hosting, transportations, or such.
I will require at least 1 edit of the finished work. I'm not picky. I like to blog them. I can accept photos of YOUR choice. I am currently printing in 11x14. That means that when the time comes, I might request a high res copy of a photo you have given me before for printing/portfolio use only. Or you can provide me with a print 11x14.
Paid Shoots:
Cash or Paypal (preferred) before or the day of, please. Absolutely no checks unless you are part of a large organization, company, etc.... Or unless I've shot with you before and we have an on-going relationship.
Travel:
I will travel anywhere if travel expenses are paid. Model fee will be waived if you give me a couple of days extra for me to book two or three other gigs in your area.
It takes a lot of time, money, and preparation managing a travel schedule.
I am very easy going. If you are unsure about our shoot in any way, do not confirm and do not cancel after I have reached your hometown.
Please let me know before my departure date from my home town (LA). I like reviewing all details thoroughly before a shoot to make sure everything runs smoothly and effectively.
Love you all.

The BLACK LIST
I hate to have to do this. But, although, I love my job and it's a lot of fun, I do take my work very seriously. Please do not forget that this is still a Business and absolute professionalism is expected from both parties. Whether we shoot with fees or TF the terms should still be performed.
