Frequently Asked Questions....
Some answers to common questions I get asked:
Q-Do you do TFP or TFCD work?
A-No, not at this time.
Q- Do you hire models?
A-For personal work no, for paid jobs yes.
Q-Where do you find these models?…can you put me in touch with them so I can photograph them?
A-If they are not listed on my LINKS page then you cannot contact them.
Q-I love the warehouse and the gravel pit…can we shoot there?
A-No, they are both gone, unless of course you know of one.
Q-Do you have a studio?
A-No, very inexpensive rental space is available or we could find a unique location outdoors.
Q-I am not a bodybuilder, will you still work with me?
A-Yes, all body types are welcome. No experience is necessary just enthusiasm and self-confidence. View all the galleries and you will better understand my abilities as a photographer.
Q-Do you shoot nudes?
A-Me?….no…..but you can take your clothes off and stand in front of my camera.
Q- Can I bring a escort to the photo shoot?
A-Of course you can. Honestly, my past experiences have clearly shown that the best escort to bring is a close friend and not a husband, wife, girlfriend or boyfriend. The escort you bring will be put to work, carrying equipment, holding a reflector, etc.
Q-If I am not a model but want to have commissioned art work created by you for my wife, husband, boyfriend or girlfriend, do I need to sign a model release?
A-No, if these images are for personal or private viewing only, than you do not need to sign a model release. They will not be put on my web site or the internet.
Q-My friend is a really good photographer and says I should not sign any model release.
A-That may be your friends belief but it is not my business policy. All models must sign a release. Period.
Q-How will my images be delivered?
A-I will provide a CD or send them via e-mail. I can do prints but web sites are the way to go! If you have commissioned me than obviously we would do a series of images, most likely black and white prints.
Q-Do I get all the images from the shoot?
A- No, I edit the images so with both look good.
Q-Do you provide a make up artist and stylist for each shoot?
A-No, unless you specially request them, none will be provided. They are also a additional expense and are not included in the original shoot fee.
Q-Do you hire photography assistants?
A-No, I put the models escort to work.
Q-Do you hire makeup artists?
A-For personal work no, for paid jobs yes. I am open to a collaboration so it never hurts to ask.
Q-Do you hire photo shop wizards?
A-No.
