Welcome to my little part of the Madcow world. I have been a photographer now for about 6 years, self-taught, with a small home based studio (air conditioned) located in the heart of the town of Maidstone, Kent. I usually work to the levels stated here, but at times I do also work on personal projects such as:
Vampires
Fairies
Macabre
Special makeup effects
Futuristic
UV body painting
I work at TF levels and occasionally offer paid work. However I do have the following to say:
I no longer give out photos from paid shoots. If you wish to recieve photos from a paid shoot, you can either purchase them or work at a reduced part paid/part TF or full TF level. They will be watermarked and copyright will not be transferred to the model. In the case of a part TF/full TF shoot, the number of photos supplied will be discussed and agreed in advance.
Also any model who confirms a shoot with me and then pulls out within 18 hours of the shoot will (except in extreme situations) receive a neutral/negative feedback (dependant on circumstance). So only confirm a shoot if you are 100% committed to the assignment.
No chaperones. I have had too many bad experiences with them in the past that I simply will not allow chaperones to be present at a shoot any more.
I will assume if I am contacted out of the blue that you are interested in either a TF* shoot or are willing to pay me for my time and will quote my price when replying. If I am looking to pay a model for work, I will either post a casting call or will contact models directly myself. So please do not waste either of our time by cold-messaging me for paid work.
However I can guarantee that my shoots are very relaxed, fun affairs, and will always make the model comfortable and enjoy the time spent in front of the camera. I always supply nibbles and drink (mmm, jaffa cakes) and music to listen to throughout.
Thanks for taking the time to read my notes, I look forward to working with you!
