A kind soul pointed out to me that I should be a little more specific about what I'm offering and what I'm looking for in return.Willing to do trade for ?
Thanks for the compliment, the welcome and the whack over the headThis is what would make people contact you. Your first post was a little questionable, just because you didn't explain yourself
Great pictures by the way
Welcome aboard.
In return for taking your photo, I ask that you sign a release stating that the photos are my property and that I can use them for my personal advertising and promotion.
not to mention, no mention of a release of any kind from the photo displayed of the chick with the very visible identity shown....oh wait...that photo is your property....duh me.I hope no girls take this guy up on this offer. Signing rights away to photos is something you should NEVER do in this business and in this case, you have no idea where the photos might end up. Furthermore, bartering & placing an unpaid ad are not the marks of a professional. Sorry Rocky but your whole pitch reads shady to me.
Sorry you feel that way. I'm looking to build a portfolio and am offering a free service in exchange for use of the photos in my own promotion. I've done some work with models from a website called Model Mayhem but thought I'd see if anyone here was interested. If nobody here is, that's cool.bartering & placing an unpaid ad are not the marks of a professional. Sorry Rocky but your whole pitch reads shady to me.
The release I use is pretty standard stuff, it's not like I made it up out of the blue. I'm not looking to become a porn vendor, just a photographer with a varied portrait portfolio.What's wrong with TF* (time for images) work? I don't agree with a full release like that, but the TF* doesn't strike me as odd.
Actually, she signed a release I downloaded from a stock site. It's a really broad release but I did hesitate to post it on this board and didn't until I was asked to prove I could take a photo. Seems you just can't win on this board...not to mention, no mention of a release of any kind from the photo displayed of the chick with the very visible identity shown....oh wait...that photo is your property....duh me.
Under most copyright laws, Canada included, the photographer owns the pictures and has the rights to use them to promote his business. Having a signed agreement isn't signing any rights away but just acknowledges that she understands what the pictures can or can't be used for. Many model/photographer agreements actually limit what the photographer has the legal right to do with the photos.I hope no girls take this guy up on this offer. Signing rights away to photos is something you should be very wary of in this business and in this case, you have no idea where the photos might end up. Furthermore, bartering & placing an unpaid ad are not the marks of a professional. Sorry Rocky but your whole pitch reads shady to me.
I agree. If you are concerned about your face being shown to the world its best to hire a photographer and just pay upfront. If not, TFP is a win-win situation.I know from doing hobby modelling that it's standard, and that you have no ill intent, but as an SP you have to weigh your own discretion against free photos sometimes.
Aren't you a sweetheartGreat pictures you've done on Miss Jasmine, although I'm willing to bet its easy to make her look stunning cause she already started out that way.
Thank you very much for those kind words! It was my pleasure working with you and I'm looking forward to doing it again. I promise to bring more change for the parking meter.I can vouch that he is polite, easygoing professional, experienced, and drives a nice car
You're absolutely right about Miss Jasmine, she is stunning!I would have used you as well, if I didn't have to blur my face for family reasons.
