********PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTACTING ME **********
*******************MODELS*************************
I am no longer offering any glamor, fashion, or any other type of portraits, "pretty pictures" or headshots as TF, with very few exceptions... Unless I am contacting you for a specific project, of course.
Please contact me for my rates if you are interested in that kind of photoshoot and provide me with specific details of what you have in mind. If I feel that it would be beneficial for my portfolio, I might consider doing it TF*. However, you must provide your own MUA if you would like your hair or makeup done. If you don't know any MUAs - I can recommend several, but you must make your own arrangements.
If you have some interesting ideas that go beyond "pretty headshots" - I would love to hear them! Also, if you have some special skills - dancing, ballet, gymnastics, martial arts, etc... - please let me know. Also, if you have access to an interesting location - please let me know. I would love to do trade work for that...
A FEW IMPORTANT RULES:
1. I will expect you to confirm the shoot at least 24 hours in advance.
2. You are welcome to bring a chaperon to any shoot. Models under 18 must have a parent present.
3. Please take care of your appearance: red eyes from luck of sleep, peeling nail polish and unshaven armpits add hours to my retouching time. It doesn't make me want to work with you again
*********************MUAHs***************************
I use MUAHs quite often in my work, and I don't mind paying for your work, especially for large-scale or complicated productions. However, please do not forget that I invest a lot of time, expertise and equipment into each shoot as well, so if you would like to use images from the shoot for your portfolio, take that into account before you quote me your prices.
If you are a MUAH and willing to do TF* to expand your portfolio - please do not hesitate to contact me. I always looking for ongoing collaborative relationships with MUAHs - where sometimes you help me create a look I have in mind, and sometimes you have complete creative freedom - so both of our portfolios benefit in the long run.
***************** ABOUT ME and MY WORK *****************
I am a female photographer in the Northern Nevada area. I am very good at what I do and I enjoy doing it. I am very creative and I am a pro at retouching. I like trying new things and try to make every photoshoot unique.
My main interest is commercial photography, specifically - stock photography. That means that I photograph scenes with models or objects and sell those for commercial use. My photographs are sold through Getty, iStockPhoto and several other agencies.
For any shoot we set up you will be required to sign iStockPhoto model release. After the session, you will receive your 3 best images - retouched web-resolution digital images for self-promotional use. I am no longer giving away high-resolution digital images, but prints for your portfolio can be purchased separately.
Modeling for stock photography can provide you with exposure beyond your wildest dreams, as those images are used in ads all over the world. My images have been used on the covers of books and magazines, in ads, brochures, and on TV. Contact me if you would like to find out more about stock photography, would like to see sample of my stock images or would like a link to the iStockPhoto model release.
