Information for Nude “freelance shoot” Models:
The information is for models coming to shoot with me for a PPV fetish, Fetish Product, or a my fetish Art project shoots, most of it is not applicable for my non-fetish/art nude model shoots.
Payment:
I usually pay part of the modeling fee by check as this provides
proof of payment when cashed, but I also pay at least a minimum of the
travel and food costs by cash. If the model wants to be paid in all
cash, the model will have to sign a receipt for the full amount when
received. On a typical $300 shoot; $100 will be in cash, $200 by
check. Except by prior agreement I pay at the end of the modeling session.
Also willing to pay all or part via PayPal. For all cash, let me know
at least 72 hours before the shoot so I can get it.
Model Release:
The model will be expected to sign the model
release in my presence before any photography begins and a picture
will be taken of the model holding the signed release and at least one
ID card with picture and birth date showing. Models should review my Standard
Model Release before coming to the shoot, if
they have any issues with it, please contact me before hand as I am
usually willing to make reasonable changes if needed, although for a PPV shoot, it will be rare.
My standard release can be found at:
model_release_standard.htm
Escorts:
I have no problems with escorts being present
as long as they are over 18 years of age,
especially given the nature of these shoots; however I expect the model
to be responsible for the escort and may ask the escort to help out
with the set or the model, but not to be in the pictures.
If the escort is a problem, I will first ask them to go wait in the
guest room and then the car and if still a problem I will ask the
model to leave at that point with only partial payment proportional to
the amount of the fetish part of the shoot completed. Please note,
that too date the two occasions there have been problems with escorts,
the models asked the escorts to go sit in the car, long before I would
have asked them to sit in the guest room.
Identification:
Models must bring a government issued ID such as driver’s license or passport with a picture of the model on it. The identification must have a birth date on it. One of the identifications must have valid mailing address (this will be kept on file and provided only as needed to satisfy U.S. Title 18, Chapter 2257 regulations). All information must be current as of the time of the shoot. If using military issued ID, please remind me to get the backside with the birth date on it. The recommended IDs are usually Driver's License or Passport.
The shot of the model holding her ID and the model release may be distributed with the set to my wholesale distributors and to any US-based retail web sites that buy the set. This documentation is not supposed to be made available to end users, but I do not have control of it at that point. Without the ID I may not be able to sell the set and thus there is no point to my paying the model. This is standard practice for these kinds of shoots because of Federal Law Enforcement Guidance.

What To Bring:
Unless instructed otherwise models will be expected to do their own makeup and hair.
For PPV shoots I am always partial to the models bringing corsets, boots, high-heel shoes and other fetish wear. My usual minimum is plain white, black or flesh colored panties or bikini bottom as one of these will go well with some of my costumes. I almost always start the model off clothed in some fashion.
I also recommend bringing a robe, since there may be a few 5-minute periods while changing set or adjusting camera/lighting. This is most useful if more then one model will be present at the shoot. If we happen to be doing a location shoot, then I recommend the robe as being considered mandatory.
Fetish model Limitation:
The following are questions I ask of all models who have agreed to do a nude fetish rope bondage shoot with me. The questions are to minimize any later misunderstandings and I always review the answers the morning of the shoot so they are fresh in my mind. For product shoots, most of these are not necessary, except the first.
1. Any problems with gags (ball, rope, bit, cloth)?
2. How do you feel about suspension?
3. Any problems with blindfolds
4. Any problems working with other female models? Normally not expecting a second model for most shoots, but have had travel models pop up on the feed and wanted to book them for same day.
5. Any medical problems, such as problems with shoulders or other joints? This question is especially important for art Project #1 and some product shots.
6. And how much experience do you have doing bondage modeling or in real life?
7. Any problems with Jute Rope (similar to Hemp - but I am allergic to hemp)? I use nylon by default.
8. Without charging me extra do you mind if I have a video camera running in the studio while we are shooting? While I no longer run a background video, short segment (as in less than 30 seconds)are popular for some product lines. I will likely also shoot 3D stereo Images.
9. And what are you not willing to show, do?
If you have any other questions, I will be happy to answer them.
