I'm taking a break from shooting for a little while.
Things I require!
1. I maintain the right to bring an assistant to all shoots! I have a new assistant, and she is a long time friend. She may or may not come on my shoots depending on scheduling.
2. I maintain the right to refuse to work with any model, at my discretion!
3. Escorts are always welcome, but must be pre approved by me!
4. Models will hire a makeup artist, if needed for the shoot, and I do maintain a list of makeup artist that have a proven track record!
5. I'm just a normal family guy, and I do ask that you check reference on me! Please ask the models I have worked with for a reference!
6. From this point on I will be working on a donation based system. Of which all donations received 50% will go to supplies and equipment and 50% will go to "homes for wounded warriors" there is no minimum requirement!
7. if you are interested in working with me, send me a message with what you are interested in shooting, what your comfort levels are, any reference would be good!
8. No one can "buy" there way into working with me, if I ask you, it means I see something!
2012 I will be doing more outdoor shoots, but shoots will be a lot fewer than I normally do.
MODELS......Say no to creepers... no matter how much photographers promise they can do for you (it's 90% BS)....and ask the local models for references on photographers, where the photographer is from... get your own references! Don't ask for theirs!
P.S. anybody can take images to submit to Maxim or Playboy and help get models features.... It's more important that you check photographer references!
If your looking for a local photographer I would highly recommend Eyecatchers Photography, if you want other recommendations please feel free to contact me...
Ian and Bonn of Eye Catchers Photography!
