I have been a photographer for over nineteen years and moved to Sebring from Fort Lauderdale in April 2021. I am looking for models (females that already have a web presence) for paid shoots taking place indoor and outdoor. I don’t do photography to make money but enjoy the creativity and accomplishment aspect of the shoot. My offer includes 1-2K images with the model getting ALL the RAW files and processed images via Dropbox. Most photographers at my ability level would charge the model $300-500 dollars and only give less than twenty processed images. For a model wanting to turn Pro I am a good start. I’ve been a member on Model Mayhem for over 19 years with references. Here is my page.
People ask me why I do this since I am not making money. I enjoy taking images, the challenge of processing in Adobe, and sharing my work. I post the albums on Flickr. It went well in Broward for me but in Highlands there are very few models with model photography being almost ‘taboo’.
One common question is can I take images of (grandfather, kids, pets, family images, etc.) The answer is that I can but I want a model that I can post here . I don’t mix money with this and there are many photographers wanting money for images in this area. Getting models in this area has been very hard compared to when I live in Broward County. And one note about kids, I won’t take images if they are not wearing age appropriate attire.
Indoor shoot at my Sebring studio
I spent a few years taking lighting lessons at Face2Face professional studio in Fort Lauderdale. I took that knowledge and designed a large home studio with twin strobes and seven different backgrounds that produces a professional look. I am right across the street from Southgate Shopping center in Sebring. To go through all the backgrounds with time to change will be two and a half to three hours. The model is welcome and encouraged to bring an escort/chaperone as long as that person is a positive asset to the event. For the indoor studio I am looking for models for a variety of shoots from fashion to artistic. I also love images with an ‘attitude’.
Outdoor shoots
I am always open for an outdoor shoot in Sebring or the surrounding area. I have spent years attending photography classes to master the hardest part of a quality image: proper lighting.
