Photoshoot Question

RedZed34 · 08-10-2011, 10:59 AM

Hey guys,
Hopefully this is the right section to post this in, but I'm going to hire a photographer to take some shots of my Z and maybe a few other cars as well... but does anyone know how to go about getting an "import model" for the shoot? average costs? (some pictures will be used for a performance parts company promotion too.) Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The photographer should know some girls. If not, let me know. I'm in the photography business (outside of Vivid) and I know some people in the NE that could probably help you find someone.

As for cost, that's going to vary a lot. A photographer that's got a lot of experience with models could work with an inexperienced model and be able to giver her great direction to get great shots. A photographer with little or no experience should probably hire a model that's got experience.

TFP or TFCD (Time for Portfolio/ Time for CD (of the images)) shoots are common with inexperienced models, or even experienced models looking to expand their portfolio.

btw- If you haven't already chosen a photographer, let me know. I can recommend a couple in the NE.
