Info about a Photoshoot with me....

Well, if you are checking this out, you are either thinking about getting some photos done by me, or thinking about modeling.

First thing I suggest.... CHECK REFERENCES!

I can not stress that enough. For your safety, and also to save some time and money, you should always check out every photographer, agency or promotional company looking to work with you.

I insist that you check my references. Check with anyone on here that I have worked with. (Check with them all for that matter) They were in your shoes at one time, checking with someone else, so they will be happy to answer any questions you have.

Have any questions for me? I will be more than happy to answer them. Don't ever worry about asking too many questions. Don't ever think it is a stupid question either. "The only stupid question, is the one you do not ask"

I work with women who have never been to a professional shoot and professional models.

I am often a "first shoot" for a lot of people. I am very patient, and know exactly what you are feeling. Nervous, a little shy, and also very curious. I spend a lot of time talking. Ok... I talk a LOT at a first shoot. I go over poses, what to expect, what you should be looking for, and where you might want to go as far as direction with modeling.

Do I charge? Yes I do. I am reasonably priced. (Oh sure....that's what they all say) ASK MY REFERENCES! Ask them if they felt it was worth it. I am not going to tell you I am the cheapest. I am sure there are a lot of guys out there willing to pull a camera out of their pocket and shoot you for free. (I saw that happen once!) But, ask my references if they felt they got their moneys worth out of me.

Seriously! ASK!

I do not just take your picture. I go over what to expect, what to bring and how things are going to go. I work with you through poses. I will shoot a variety of looks and we will go over the images at the end of each look. Between shooting with me, talking with me, and the time I have on edits, I'll be investing a lot of time on our shoot.

If things work out, I'll even set you up with promotional work, and refer you to other reputable photographers I work with. I'll be honest with you about my impression, and what I suggest for a next step.

First shoots are always fun. After spending the time going over everything, everyone is usually very relaxed and has a great time. So many come back for more, I assume they had a good experience....

Check my references!

Look over my work. Let me know your favs and what you want to try.

Worst case? You get some great pics....

TAKE CARE! Robert
