My blog, although I don’t see myself as a blogger but as a Photographer I will try to blog some interesting material during the weeks.
Expect at least 2 updates a week.
A few days ago I talked about TFP, now let’s look at paying a model/MUA.
We all start somewhere, some people are very lucky and they will know the best models in the city and those are willing to work with them, but most of us photographers will start out blank. And not knowing anyone. So what do you do?
You ask people you know, scout models on the street and you start building your portfolio (well first your skills).
Now when your skills are growing you will often find out that the models you’re working with are slightly (or heavily) holding you back. When you realize this, it’s time to hire a model, and trust me this can be much cheaper than you think.
Today a small blogpost (but very important one) about a term called TFP.
TFP means officially : Time For Print.
Often now a days it’s called : Time For CD
So what is TFP?
TFP means that you do a photoshoot (or something else) without getting paid.
“You said what? I don’t get paid for my time, what is going on?”
Yep you heard me correctly, YOU (and your whole team) doesn’t get paid.
Some people will now say that they will never do stuff like that (anymore), but let’s think about it.
During our recent “workshop/seminar tour” I worked with several models, in this blog post some images I personally liked from these sessions. Remember that most are done during situations that are not really making it possible to shoot portfolio material to say the least. With the retouching of these images I always play around with different colors to give the models more to choose from, so there will be some color differences between images from the same set.
The first ones were done during the pre-con workshop I taught during Photoshop World in Washington DC.
