Information for Models
|
There are certain things I expect from models: 1. Cancellations/postponements should only be made with a good reason and with as much notice as possible (at least 24 hours). Any cancellation that leads to the incurring of costs (hotel or studio bookings etc) entitles me to recover these costs, either by deduction from the payment for a future shoot, or directly. I reserve the right to recover any costs incurred by legal action if necessary. 2. Chaperones are welcome but should be warned that they are there for the model's protection and not for any other reason. They will be expected to wait in another room/at a reasonable distance and not to interfere with the shoot. Any unnecessary interference by a chaperone will lead to the shoot being cancelled without payment. All models under the age of 18 are required to be accompanied by an adult. 3. Photo ID (either passport or driving licence) should be brought along to the shoot. Failure to bring ID will lead to payment being withheld until these are supplied, or cancellation of the shoot without payment, at my discretion. 4. You should bring along everything to the shoot that has been requested. For outdoor nude shoots this should include sensible shoes (preferably trainers) and warm comfortable clothing that does not leave marks. For other shoots a variety of clothing should be brought. For all shoots, some makeup and hair accessories should be brought in case they are needed. 5. I expect models (or a parent/guardian as appropriate) to sign model release forms, and do not pay extra for this. If a pre-signed form was requested, failure to bring it will lead to payment being withheld until this is supplied, or cancellation of the shoot without payment, at my discretion. 6. For nude or semi-nude shoots, models are expected to arrive with no strap marks from tight clothing, which generally means that any tight clothing (especially bras) should be removed AT LEAST two hours before the start of the shoot. I reserve the right to delay the start of the shoot until any marks have disappeared. 7. Models should inform me before the shoot of any marks on their bodies that may affect the photographs. These include tattoos, piercings, tanlines, scars, etc. If there are marks that were not declared before the shoot was booked, that affect my ability to get the pictures I want, I reserve the right to cancel the shoot without payment or reduce the length or rate as appropriate. 8. If the shoot is unable to be carried out for any of the reasons given in clauses 2, 3, 5 or 7, this will be regarded as an unjustified cancellation by the model and clause 1 will apply. In return models can expect this from me: 1. I will not cancel/postpone a shoot without notice (I've only postponed one shoot in my life and that was for a major illness). The exception to this is outdoor shoots, which may need to be postponed due to weather (although this hardly ever happens). Models will be reimbursed for any costs incurred due to my cancellation or postponement. 2. I will be friendly but professional throughout the shoot, and do everything possible within the requirements of the shoot to keep the model safe, warm, comfortable and supplied with food and drink. 3. Payment will be made on the day in cash (except if withheld for the reasons given in clauses 3 and 5 above). If payment is in the form of pictures, these will be sent promptly after the shoot, with electronic versions normally available within a few days and hard copy within 1-2 weeks. 4. Even if the shoot is paid, I will generally make a small number of sample images available, for personal promotion only, if required. |
