To ALL THE PEOPLE I HAVE WORKED WITH RECENTLY:
If you are awaiting for your photos in any form, you're gonna have to wait more than expected. I don't want to go in detail about what's happening, but I am confined to a bed right now unable to move. I can move mY upper body, but can't move my lower body and the last thing in my mind are pictures.
I will focus in a full recovery at the moment and once I can function I'll get back to this. Thanks for understanding and you'll hear from me sooner or later to get your shots.
God bless.

REQUIREMENTS
This is like any other job. There are requirements to be met. Please, pay attention to this; I don’t like to repeat myself. It really aggravates me to say something that’s already specified here.
Models
-Models have to fit the profile of what’s being shot. Unless specified otherwise, I am looking for girls who are SLIM, 5’8” and up, with a unique look, talented, who can take direction and are committed to their craft.
-Traveling definitely comes with the job. I could ask you to meet me in Sarasota, Bradenton, Tampa, Clearwater; any of the surrounding cities really. If that’s a problem for you, then you’re not fit for the job.
- Model release must be signed prior to shooting.
- If you are a minor; mom, dad or a legal guardian must be present to supervise and to sign the release.
- You need to do your hair on your own, UNLESS I tell you we have a hairstylist.
- Your nails have to be done or at least clean and even. Regular French or clear polish is fine. No “cool” designs.
Hairstylist, Make Up Artist, Wardrobe Stylist, Designer: I just ask of you to be talented, willing to travel, great attitude. Love what you do.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
-My terms are set on stone. No exceptions. Do not wait to be on location to try to change anything. It won’t happen. READ IT ALL to avoid unnecessary and uncomfortable situations. If there is something to be said, IT HAS TO BE SAID BEFORE WE EVEN START PLANNING ANYTHING.
-TFP will be considered ONLY for models I feel can enhance my portfolio in one way or another. It's pretty safe to say that if I contact you, you get your session for free; if you contact me, ASK FOR MY RATES. They are affordable, don't be scared. I don’t do TFCD.
-I don't pay models for non-commercial shoots. I don’t give gas money either.
-If it's TF, I choose which shots are going to be retouched.
-If I give you a time frame/date of when you are going to get prints/files/etc. do not bug me about it before the last day of that term is over/due. Asking me often is not going to make me do it before promised.
Photo Terms:
-You get high quality (retouched) prints and digital files for web use.
-You get a max of 3 prints and a copy of all the digital files (for web use) of all the shots I retouch.
-If you need any extra prints, a small fee will be charged (8x10 print).
-If you want me to retouch other shots of your choice, a retouching fee will be charged (it includes retouching, 8x10 print and its digital file for web use).
-I don't hand out unretouched pictures to anyone.
-There is a turnaround time of at least 30 days.
-Digital files for web use: Have my watermark, are small.
