Welcome Models!




I am always looking for new female models to shoot. I generally pay $25-100 per hour for select models to do a private shoot with me. (Payment depends on skill, experience, professionalism, desirability, and personal costumes/props you might be able to bring to add to the shoot.) My shoots last a minimum of 2 hours and may be as long as 4 or 5 hours. Beyond cash payment, I also provide my models with 8-12 large "finished" jpgs for use in the model's portfolio. (Models are welcome to bring an escort/companion, if so desired for safety/travel concerns. All models should be familiar with, and willing to the sign, the usual model release forms, before any shooting takes place.

Beyond pay shoots, I also do collaborative shoots. Unlike a private shoot, instead of $$ up front, I give the model I am shooting limited rights to my work, but also retain my rights to it. (So if model wants to use my images they can as they see fit.) Essentially we become co owners of the copyright. (A special model/copyright release from will be used as a contract and signed by both parties before any shooting takes place.) In general, I only engage in collaborative shoot that fit the theme of my flesh and steel fantasy style of photography.

Finally, I do glamour/vanity/personal photography. This category relates to people who want me to shoot them or something else, themes I would not otherwise choose to shoot. (Do to subject matter, appearance, time, etc, etc…Things like business, weddings, birthdays, bands, pets, personal private photos fall into this category.) For these types of shoots I charge $200 per hour of actual shoot time. (For every hour shooting, I will probably be spending 2-4 hours editing. I generally take about 500 shots per hour.) Free editing of this nature includes cropping, blemish removal, image clarification, skin smoothing, and colorizing techniques. It does not include enhanced backgrounds or special effects.) For this type of shoot I will provide 10-20 professionally finished jpegs for every hour we shoot, plus provide all raw jpgs to the model if desired. Actual prints may be ordered at an additional cost upon request. Models will not be asked to sign a release form, and will be given limited rights to all photos. (Mass market, commercial rights to use such photos are open to negotiation. Such as album covers for bands, and mass produced posters/prints, magazine and book covers.)

If you are interested in shooting with me under one of the above terms, or have something else in mind, I would love to hear from you. Please send me an email at the below email address. Please attach 3 recent pictures. (Taken in the last 6 months) And let me know what kind of shoot your interesting doing, what experience you have, what your salary expectations might be, and what, if any special considerations, questions, comments or concerns you might have. Thank you for your consideration. :)
