MODEL INSTRUCTIONS:

NOTE: If you follow my rules, I promise that I will provide you with a safe, fun environment.

(1) You are being paid to participate as a Nude Model or Implied Model for the Group Shoot Portion of the event, In exchange for this, you will be paid $100 ($50.00 for Implied).
Other shoots do not pay for the first 4 hours - Your only pay is for 1-on-1's. -- Not at  Homegrown Hotties !!! But You are required to pose Nude /Implied during the group shoot, (unless special arrangements are made with the Sponsor). Recently there has been a rash of sponsors who actually hold back a percentage of your 1-on-1 money.  I promise that will never happen at my events !!.

(2) You are NOT required to pose "Hustler" style but if you feel comfortable enough to do that, it is perfectly acceptable.

(3) Please do your own hair / make-up.  NOTE: If You turn out to be a "Dressing Room Camper", You will not be invited back.

(4) You may sell model releases for up to $20.00 each, $30.00 for Hustler Style.

(5) You will book your own 1-on-1 sessions, release included, at your own rate. (We recommend $40.00 per 30 minutes) but this rate is entirely up to you.

(6)

You must work the whole group shoot in order to sell 1-on-1 spots. I will not allow you to arrive at 3pm and expect to work the 1-on-1 portion without working the group shoot.

(7) You will be provided a safe & friendly work environment.

(8) Photographers are NOT allowed to touch or Manhandle you in any manner without your permission.

(9) As per the invitation letter which you all will receive - if you are 1 hour late, your base pay will be reduced by 25%.
PLEASE ARRIVE ON TIME.

PHOTOGRAPHER INSTRUCTIONS:

(1)If the Ratio becomes greater than 4 photographers to 1 Model, I will offer partial refunds to the photographers.  The amount will be determined solely by me based on the situation.

(2) Photographers limited to 36. This will be supported by at least 9 Models. 

(3)

Photographers are NOT allowed to touch or manhandle the models

(4) Registration $80.00 in advance.

(5) If you are a member of the New Faces Camera Club, Your Registration will be $70.00 -- You may join the NFCC for $35.00 per year at this event or any other NFCC event.

(6) If you bring a new Photographer who has not been to our event, You will get in for 1/2 price as long as he pays full price. If you bring 2 newbies, your entry is FREE.

(7) Models will be selling releases for the group shoot for $20.00 ($30.00 for Hustler Style)

(8) You can bring your own lighting equipment, but I would at least suggest a pocket wizard or similar unit. (*) NOTE:
PLEASE limit it to 1 light & stand per photog during the group portion AND remember that Pocket Wizard only has 4 channels

Why do we suggest a Pocket Wizard?
It is to limit the number of cords that are lying on the ground so there is less of a chance of tripping over a cord

(9) For Private 1-on-1 shoots between 3:15 and 6:00pm, you may book your favorite model(s) in 30 minute increments at a rate of approximately $40.00 including release.

(10) Location Owner is Flexible, Time may be extended as needed.

(11)

You must pay for the group shoot even if you do not participate in order to hire a model for 1-on-1's.

(12)

We are no longer accepting PayPal services.  This company engages in censorship and I will not support this.

NOTE:  Please Do Not Use PayPal for this Event.  The Email address for Homegrown Hotties is: "[email protected]". I will allow you to pay at the door if you send me an e-mail first to get a reservation. If you abuse this privilege, it will not be available to you again.

(13)If You give me a Deposit or Full Payment and cannot make the shoot, Call in Advance and your reservation money will be transferred to the next event. - (If you are a no show, there will be no refund.  I have to pay the models whether or not you show up) No Direct Cash Refunds

(14)If you tie up a model with an after shoot 1-on-1 and then are a no show (Without a Phone Call), You are responsible for paying the model her missed 1-on-1 fee.  A simple phone call to the model or sponsor can fix this and the model can replace you on her schedule.

THIS IS A LISTING OF INVITED MODELS - Models will be added as they are hired and we will do everything in our power to insure that they will show-up: Every one of these models is real (not a figment of my imagination) and their Model Mayhem numbers are listed for you to check out their portfolios.  PLEASE DO NOT HARASS THE MODELS WITH SILLY MESSAGES. It is acceptable to contact a model to arrange a 1-on-1 slot in advance.

PICTURES OF THE MODELS WILL BE ADDED AS THEY CONFIRM

Mike,

Call Mike or use e-mail. MM cancelled Mike's membership and he probably won't get this message.

Why did Mike's membership get cancelled? Or is discussing such a thing grounds to have your membership cancelled?

MM is receiving some unwanted attention lately, see here. IMO, as a result certain Events and Promoters have come under a higher level of scrutiny. Let's just hope this all works itself out and we see Mike back on the boards soon. Putting these shows together takes a tremendous amount of time and dedication and Mike's events are the best. They're hella fun and everybody benefits. Mike is an asset to the industry and the community.

I also hope Mike is back soon(he been around for a long time), those type of group shoots really get people to play with their camera equipements and learn more about photography, isn't this what MM is all about???

Anyway, this event is still on and you can email him at: [email protected] to see who the models is going to be and direction if needed.

Hey Mike welcome back! So who's the 13th model? And do you have pictures of Ryoko and what type of modeling she does? I'm already liking the name

The 13th model hasn't confirmed yet.  I don't have pictures of Ryoko but she is a nude model.  Brand new to photo day, really cute, a stripper & friend of Stephanie Stone.

Your right Alisyn!  It was amazing that she did so well (lotz of photographers booking
her), so you only worry is if Mike is all booked up with Models.
