Do you work with models on a test or TFP/CD basis?

Firstly, TFP/CD is an industry acronym meaning "Time For Prints or CD" where the model waives payment in lieu of a selection of prints or a CD (DVD) of images from the shoot.

Yes, we will always consider TFP/CD work. Our criteria being that we think the shoot could be worthwhile for us and feel we are able to offer the model something different. You don't need to be a young Goddess to work with us though. If we see something special in your look, we will be happy work with you. Be warned though that we may also consider charging you for our time if we don't see that working with you would benefit our business. It's a commercial world - if you like what we do that much, it's worth paying for.

NOTE 1
Please note that we will never sell any images from a TFP/CD, we do not consider that is fair! We may use images to promote our business by placing them on this web site and other modelling or photography sites. With your permission we will promote you appropriately and any approaches for image sale or use will result in a 50/50 split in revenue.

NOTE 2

You CANNOT use any image as you wish and we reserve the right to refuse use of, or insist that post-production work is carried out on an image that you may want to use.
