  Former Professional photographer, now living in semi-retirement.
  My modelling-photography is conducted on a strictly hobbyist-basis for my personal enjoyment and with no commercial outlet.
  
  TFP ONLY
  
  I prefer to work with models who have an interest in my style of work and so for that reason, model-shoots for personal use will only be conducted on a TFP or possibly on a Part-Pay/Travel expenses basis.

• I do not usually permit Escorts in my studio or on location shoots as I find them to be a distraction.
  I prefer that only those directly involved as part of the creative effort, such as a Stylist, MUA/Visa etc. are present.
  
  Homeshootings...
  However, when shooting at the model's home the above does not apply - your house, your rules.

• A note on Watermarks:
  All of my work is watermarked apart from older images comissioned by clients.
  Unfortunately in this day and age of everyone thinking everything they see on the internet is 'free' for them to download and use for their own purposes, watermarking images is the only way photographers can assert ownership in the event we catch someone stealing images. Otherwise they can claim they did not know who the image belonged to and that it was an Orphan Work. By removing or altering the watermark they demonstrate that they not only knew but have attempted to circumvent worldwide Intellectual Property Rights.
  
  Small watermarks may be aesthetically more pleasing but they are easier to remove.
  
  All images supplied as part of a TFP arrangement will be watermarked accordingly.
  
  Images supplied to paying clients will not be watermarked - so if you want unwatermarked images - you must pay me.

• All shoots must be accompanied by a signed Model Release and Usage Agreement provided by me. These documents will be in English as I work in several EU Countries.
  Non-Commercial usage will be only permitted on a TFP- Shootings. 
  
  T&Cs for all shoots are covered by my Model Release & Usage Agreement forms, which will be made available for examination prior to any shoot. 
  No Release Form = No shoot. 
  
  TFP - watermarked copies of ALL suitable images that are retouched will be supplied within 2 weeks. 
  
  Part-Pay - watermarked copies of all images that are retouched will be supplied as proofs from which you may choose a number of copies, to be determined according to the amount of discount offered. 
  
  If my style does not warrant a TFP or Part-Pay shooting, then my Budget for Pay-Shootings is nominally £40/ph, although there is some room for negotiation depending on levels and modelling experience - however in this case, no images will be supplied. 
  Full Release authority will apply to images from Pay- and Part-Pay Shoots
