Model Information page
If you are a model or an
individual interested in a photosesion with me please
send
me your request and a recent photo.
It is
also very interesting to you to read the FAQ and if you have
any other questions don't hesitate to contact me.
Do I need to be a professional model to qualify for a
photoshoot?
No. Previous modelling experience helps but it is not
required. I need shots with professional models, amateur
models and every day women, men, teenagers, children,
elders, couples and groups.
In my experience I've found that there is always a suitable
concept for every face. The only requirement is that you are
NOT camera shy.
Be aware that I cannot say yes to every application.
What do I get for the photoshoot?
I provid every model with:
- For models:
- 10 A4 printed images.
- CD containing the edited images.
- For non models:
I give a 10 printed images 10x15 cm .
- CD with the edited images.
How much
will the photoshoot cost me?
The photoshoot is absolutely free. Photography agencies
charge between $300-$1000 for the same service I provide.
The only thing you are required to do is to sign a model
release form. A model release is a document which enables me
to sell the photos under a royalty free licence. You can
read the model release form
here.
Here you can read an important extract from the model
release:
"By signing this release I hereby give the Photographer/
Filmmaker and Assigns my permission to license the Images
and to
use the Images in any Media for any purpose (except
pornographic or
defamatory) which may include, among others, advertising,
promotion,
marketing and packaging for any product or service."
If you do not wish to sign the model release but still would
like a photoshoot I can do it for $300 and you will get the
same items already mentioned above.
What sort of photos will be taken during the photoshoot?
Generally I shoot business, stock, commercial and lifestyle
images. You are welcome to come up with your own ideas prior
the photoshoot. It is very important for me that you walk
out of my studio with the photos you had in mind or better.
Where will my photos be used?
Photos sold under a Royalty Free licence are used in digital
and print media including: magazines, newspapers, leaflets,
brochures, websites and books.
The photolibraries I use to market my photos have strict
terms and conditions for buyers in their Term of Use. Here
is an important extract from one of the agencies terms of
service for buyers:
" You may NOT use an Image in a way that places any person
in the photo in a bad light or depicts them in a way that
they may find offensive - this includes, but is not limited
to: a) the use of Images in pornography; b) tobacco ads; c)
ads for adult entertainment clubs or similar venues, or for
escort, dating or similar services; d) political
endorsements; e) advertisements for pharmaceutical products,
including, but not limited to personal hygiene or birth
control products; and f) uses that are defamatory, or
contain otherwise unlawful, offensive or immoral content."
If you wish to see some samples of the images I will shoot
or if you wish to read the full Term of Use of the main
photo agency I use you can do so
here.
Where do the photoshoots take place?
They take place in a rent home-studio in Bucharest or
outside at a location we wiil choose together. You can bring
someone along with you if it makes you feel safer and more
confident. Having said that take into consideration that
boyfriends/girlfriends are not always the most appropiate
companion during a photoshoot. Parents/friends are always
more cooperative and relaxed.
Do you provide a make up artist and a hair stylist?
Normally my models do their hair and makeup themselves but I
can get a hair stylist on request for a $30 fee.
