Thank you so much for your interest in working with me. On this page
I have placed the answers to most of the questions that arise in
relation to my policies and booking details.
If you have any questions about these or special requests, please ask
me!
- Posing Limits:
I am available for fashion, beauty, editorial, glamour,
swimwear, glamour, pin-up, and similar styles. Working with other
female models within the frameworks above is a possibility but I will
expect detailed discussion of your styling and goals in advance.
Please look at the work in my portfolio - and if you wish to shoot
anything beyond the glamour and art work there, please discuss it with
me. If you see a few pieces that are "near the edge" please do not
assume that these are within my limits for everyone. Please ask and do
not assume it as my limits, it will make things easier for everyone.
- Hair Dressers/Makeup Artists:
Professionals can add enormously to the finished product and are
recommended. If you will be providing hair and makeup please let me know
who we will be working with. However, I am capable of doing my own makeup
and hair if it is required.
- Location:
Under all circumstances unless otherwise stated, I will assume that our
work will be conducted in a normal heated and/or air conditioned studio
environment.
If your project entails location work of any type, please discuss the
location and your styling ideas in advance. Also please understand that
I am a model and not a location scout. My times and rates begin when I
arrive and end when I leave - if location scouting is to be a part of
our day then it is assumed that my rates are in effect during the time
that I spend in your employ (see "Time and Money" below).
- Cancellation policy:
Modeling is my livelihood and it is important that I am able to rely on
the word of those with whom I am going to work. When I book time with you
I will not book this same time with someone else - so a cancellation will
cost me directly. Because of this my cancellation policy is:
- Cancellation within 2 weeks (14 days) before the date of the shoot will
entail no cancellation fee.
- Cancellation within 7 days a fee equal to 50% of our agreed on rate will
be assessed.
- Cancellation within 2 days (48 hours) requires a cancellation fee of 100%
of our agreed upon rates.
Please understand that I am counting on you to simply do what you say you
will do, I am investing money in making myself available.
If for some reason you need to cancel for any reason, future bookings will
require a non-refundable deposit.
- Rates:
Fashion, Casual, Lingerie - $ 75.00 /Hour
Half day rate - $350.00 /4 Hours for up to glamour
Full day rate - $600.00 /8 Hours for up to glamour
I have a two hour minimum for all bookings.
- Time and Money:
Modeling is my profession. My rates take effect when I arrive and end
when finished. It is the client's responsibility to be prepared for
the work. I will arrive ready and expect the same - you wouldn't want
to stand and wait for me to shave my legs <G> ... and I don't expect to
have to wait for you to ready your studio and equipment.
Under most circumstances I will have other work booked and so our work
must be completed within the time we have allotted.
- Usage and Release:
Please tell me your intended usage, I am very open but do not like
surprises in business - especially that which deals with my image.
For paid work I will sign a "standard" full release with one explicit
exception which must be included in the release or signed as an exception:
I am not willing to allow my images to be used in for-pay (subscription)
web sites unless this was agreed upon in our negotiations. This exception
includes the use of my name and web sites based solely on images of me
(free or pay).
I ask that you send the verbiage from your release in advance for my
review. If you don't have a standard release form I can provide one for
you.
I am open to negotiation in almost anything except my posing limits.
This is a business and I understand value, let's talk!
Please note that "negotiation" does not equal "badgering". Badgering
is not welcome and will not further your goals. ;-)
So let's shoot!!! If you have questions about
anything please
ask, it is much better that we are all on the same page than to guess
or assume then create problems.
Please provide me with the following information, so that we can skip
to the fun part: deciding what to shoot!
- Full Name and OMP# or MM#
- What kind of work you are interested in shooting
- Where
- Date and Time
- Transportation/hotel (if traveling is involved)
- Compensation
- Anything else I should know about the shoot
- Please provide 3-5 model references.
