Bournemouth Models Wanted

I am always looking for new models for studio or outdoor work. I am an amateur photographer and as such request no payment. Usual TFCD (Time for Cd of photos) conditions apply. This means that I don't pay you to be a model and you don't pay me to take your photo. It is a mutual arrangement in which we can both benefit. I will cover all studio hire and camera equipment costs and unless specifically noted otherwise I expect you to provide all clothing and make-up at your expense. I do not have a make-up artist available although you can bring someone along to help with hair and make-up if you want. I gain experience in taking new photos and experimenting with different lighting set ups and add to my experience and develop my portfolio of work that I can show to potential clients. You, the model, receive a copy of the photos that you can add to your portfolio and likewise increase your chances of obtaining future paid work.

My requirements are:

1) You are at least 18 years old and can bring proof of identity and age at the time of the photo shoot

2) I will require you to sign a standard model release form so that I can publish any photos without restrictions.

3) The photo session is conducted in a professional manner, courtesy and respect must be shown by all parties at all times and also applies to any studio staff present - no shouting, offensive language. 

My code of practice

1) I do not take any topless or nude photos unless the model specifically asks me to do so. My main interest is in portrait, fashion photography and clothed glamour photography. Swimwear & lingerie will only be with prior consent. I will not ask you to do anything that you do not fully feel comfortable doing.

2) I will show you the photos that I have taken of you at the end of the session. If there are any photos that you do not want me to publish for any reason or that you find not beneficial to your image then I will delete the images directly from my camera chip.

3) All first meetings will be at an independent local photographic studio. The studio will provide lighting assistance and usually the owner of the studio is also present. There are toilets and changing facilities available. You may bring a female friend or family member along if preferred.

4) If at any time during the photo shoot you are uncomfortable with any aspect of the session you must let me know immediately. I don't want you to wait until the end of the session to bring to my attention any grievances or problems.

5) The photo session is conducted in a professional manner, courtesy and respect must be shown by both parties and also to any studio staff present.

6) I will not publish any of your personal details such as home address or telephone number or give these details to third parties. I will only publish your name and contact email or website if directly authorized by you to do so.
