Are you an experienced or aspiring model? I am looking for models of all shapes, sizes, colours and pronouns.
Would you be up for a collaboration on a time for prints exchange?
If so, please do carry on reading!
Why do I need models?
As I travel around the UK for my photography project I visit a lot of really great locations. From stunning landscapes and forests to quaint villages and historical sites.
It really does seem like a waste to be seeing these places and not having a subject to photograph with it.
I’m also looking to update my lifestyle portfolio with specific interests in outdoor lifestyle including hiking, climbing (I won’t be climbing!) running. camping, vanlife and the like.
Do I have to have modelling experience?
Whilst experience would certainly be preferred, I am quite happy to provide guidance and where necessary pose direction to those looking to put together their first portfolio.
However, due to the nature of the photography I’m interested in, a lot of what I’m after are ‘action’ shots. So my model would be doing what they do without too much interference from me to get as natural a look as possible.
Its far more about your ability to perform the activity than your modelling experience 😊
What is ‘time for prints’?
Time for prints or TFP as its known in the photography world is an exchange of time. The model provides their time for free as does the photographer. Many TFP photoshoots will also include a make up artist and/or hair stylist if its a creative shoot.
How many images will I get as a model?
I will provide 3 images for every hour that we are together. These will be fully edited and styled images based on the background we shoot in on the day.
What types of activities are you interested in?
Really, any outdoor activity for example but not limited to:
- Hiking
- Biking (road or off-road)
- Motorbiking (off-road, track)
- Skateboarding
- Surfing
- Climbing
What sort of settings do you typically shoot models in?
I am after both urban and rural shoots. I visit a lot of historical sites for my project so I’d love to have a subject to photograph at some of these. This includes Cathedrals, Abbeys, Churches, Castles etc.
I’d be after fashion or creative styles when shooting in urban areas or at a site and a lifestyle feel for the rural and activity photoshoots.
Do you have a mood board?
The following board on Pinterest will hopefully provide some idea of the types of things I’m looking to get for my portfolio.

Do I have to sign anything?
Yes, you will need to sign a model release form which basically states that you agree to me using the images taken during our shoot for marketing purposes, my portfolio etc. The full release form will be provided to you ahead of any agreed shoot together.
Do you have any reviews from past models?
I have reviews on my Facebook page that I have recently decommissioned since Facebook for whatever reason would not allow me to rename my existing page!
