My name is David M. Brown and I am a professional photographer from south central Ohio.
I accept TFP/CD when I can.
My primary occupation is Fashion/Beauty Photography and Portfolio Building with Models of all skill and experience levels up to and including:
Comp/Zed Cards
* 8 X 10 Book Prints (if you don't have a Book, get one, if you don't know what it is, ask)
* Fashion
* Glamour
* Lingerie
* Figure work
* Portraiture
* Beauty
* Commercial
* Swimsuit
* Art Nudes
I am professional, courteous, and prepared at all times. I prefer to shoot on location in accordance with the theme and the concept. The studio is fine for simple figure work however glamour work, for example, should be in a glamorous setting.
My rates are reasonable and all packages can be adapted to include number of poses/outfits, prints, Comp Cards, etc.
Tips for new models:
1.) Modeling is hard work, try not to get caught up in the drama that can sometimes occur.
2.) Believe in yourself and it will show in your images.
3.) Never believe what you see on the TV. “America’s Next Top Model” is not reality, it’s entertainment.
4.) Be motivated, dedicated and driven. While this may not mean you will make it one day to Super Model status, only that you can be content in the knowledge you did your best.
5.) Be pleasant, courteous, and don’t be afraid to ask questions. If you are ever uncomfortable at a shoot you should excuse yourself and leave.
6.) If you need to reschedule a shoot let all parties know as much in advance as possible. If a model no-call, no-shows on me we will not reschedule unless there are extreme circumstances.
7.) Say to yourself “Yes I Can” one more time than those around you say “No You Can’t”. That’s when you win.
8.) Stay diverse, a well rounded portfolio will always enjoy more possibilities.
9.) If you want Professional Photos, work with Professionals.
10.) Practice, practice, practice.
Take care, and thank you for reading.
Always,
