Escorts
Until recently I have allowed just about any one to be with a model when she shoots but I have decided to get back to the professional approach and not allow non essential persons at a shoot. Most are good but it is the few who are not that make photographers just say no.
Bring anyone you choose but they MUST be in another room or the car or some where OTHER than the studio.
I have a security camera in the studio , with sound, if they want to watch every move from another room LOL

No RAP in my studio
I never mind music during a shoot but don't ever ask for it to be rap . Rap is for people who lack the basic intelligence to know what music is and I do not care to share in their ignorance.

Cell Phones
If you are paying for the shoot and you want to take messages or answer the phone go for it .
If we are doing a trade or a commercial shoot I don't want to even hear the phone buzz , beep , sing .....
If you bring an escort they will have to agree to have their phone IPOD or anything else that makes noise turned off if they are within 100 ft of where the shoot is taking place .
Non -negotiable for TFP and guests


TFP/TFCD ( Trade for print ) ( Trade for CD )
I really do like to work with some of the new models who need good images to promote their modeling. If you fit into that area don't hesitate to contact me , never hurts to ask:) Release required day of shoot and the release is signed AFTER the shoot not before. Never sign a release with any photographer before a shoot because you have no idea what is shot until the shoot is over.

Paid shoots
I always welcome paid shoots for anything from Family shots to Glamour and Art Nudes. The only subjects I normally do not take are girls who are too large to make good images. If you are more than 50# over weight I will not work with you unless you agree to additional fees to cover the retouching.

Releases
The release is signed after the shoot is over so every thing is covered with no surprises.
Basic honesty is the real issue here and that is what releases are for I guess ---to keep people honest when they fail to do so on their own.
