Things To Know About Working With Me
I expect Professionalism at all times. This includes, but is not limited to:
Having the shoot planned from theme to wardrobe to location.
Being concise about your vision for the photoshoot.
Understanding the industry and process so we can plan without confusion.
Not showing up drunk/on drugs. However, weed is always acceptable.
Being prepared by having Deposit ready for Booking. Deposits are non-refundable.
Understanding I only accept Cash, Paypal, Cashapp, or Venmo.
Respecting my time and yours by sticking to the scheduled time for shooting. Please do not be late.
Cancelling with 24 Hours advance notice or more.
Not adding or changing the planned shoot after the session starts.
Offering back 15+ Photos, preferably per hour.
Planning publications in advance, shooting solely for the publication. It is important to know that you cannot release images prior to the release of publication, sometimes this may cause you to wait months to post photos.
Respecting any time I decline something due to comfortability. There is no convincing me otherwise.
Not extending time after the session begins.
Never asking to "See my wardrobe" or to "Bring whatever." Photoshoots should be carefully and concisely planned. At that, I always buy new outfits for every shoot, to meet the theme exactly.
Understanding that I put money into each shoot by buying wardrobe, make-up, and travel fare to get on set. This often costs me anywhere from $100-$300, hence my rates.
Never exceeding a one-on-one photoshoot with me beyond 5 hours, unless it is an event.
Communicating about all changes/delays/cancellations, whether it be last minute or not.
While Working Together On Set:​
I had a back injury in 2012, so its hard for me to be overly flexible with my back, or to hold/achieve certain poses. I always do my best, and work through the pain, but because of this, certain things may not be possible.
I am completely deaf in my right ear, so I ask that you enunciate and project your words when communicating. If I ask "what" just repeat yourself, as I just didn't hear you, it is not that I didn't understand.
Never be afraid to give direction. I will always bring what I can do to the table, but "just do your thing" isn't communicating your vision.
It's always okay to adjust garments/hair/etc. to get a better shot, just be sure to communicate/ask that I need to be touched to fix it.
