What I can bring to a shoot
Good pre shoot comms. I like to discuss shoots beforehand so we are both prepared.
Arrive on time and don't cancel without very good reason.
Able to take direction.
Able to give ideas and collaborate on concepts. I am an actor and know how to make good sets, and strike interesting poses. I have a range of factial experessions to convery different emotions.
Try to help you get the best shots you can.
I don't clock watch.
Can do my own make up to a reasonable standard.
Professional theatrical experience, so get into character.
I drive so anywhere (in the world) is possible.
Can shoot with my husband @greygent who is a model and photographer (In fact I prefer to)
Happy to stay overnight nearby if required.
Having fun.
Things that I can bring with me
Extensive range of costumes and props.
Portable strobe lighting and fill lighting, soft boxes.
Plain back drops.
Rates, levels and why me?
30 per hour. Less if over 3 hours. Negotiable, I dont want to be unreasonable.
I love character work, costumes and story telling.
I am not really into what I call cheap tacky lingerie, topless or nude work. Its not the nudity or lingerie as such but the context. If it is just pictures of a scantily clad model as the main focus of the shot then its not for me. If it tells a really good story it could be different, so ask but don’t expect me to say yes unless its a really good idea that I can see merit in.
Travel expenses. Petrol money if over 20 miles away. Accommodation if overnight.
Because you won’t get messed around.
I turn up on time.
If I say I will do something I will. I dont change my mind.
I work hard and try not to waste time.
Extensive pre shoot comms to be sure we are on the same page and to save time at the shoot.
Full of ideas to help with the shoot if asked. I am an actor and director i know how to dress a set and how to use props and am at my best when these skills are being used.
Not full of my own ego and self importance.
I am there to do a job and will do it well.
TF. Very rarely unfortunately as I have to make a living from this. No harm in asking though.
Chaperone? If first time then yes. I know this is sometimes an issue but I was sexually assaulted on my first non chaperone shoot despite the string of good references. As a model, actor and occasional photographer himself my chaperone is not anything to be concerend about, in fact knows the business and can be really useful. He will hold lights and even model with me if you want. Ask anybody we have worked with.
If there is a specific project in mind please feel free to discuss it with me. I don't bite and the worse that will happen is 'no thanks'. If its really interesting and uses my skills I may well jump at the oppportunity.
I am nice.
