PAID photo shoot casting

I am casting professional and experienced models for multiple studio shoots blending fashion, artistic nude and theme based photography. Shoots to primarily take place at my own dedicated 1500 sf commercial studio space which features two separates studios including a permanent water studio installation with a 9 square metre water base and rain system, well as a standard Colorama studio.

Shoots are full day 10am - 6pm with lunch and coffee breaks. If distance is limiting we can discuss a half day shoot or in certain circumstances if a full day is essential with travel needing to take place the day before and after the shoot then hotel accommodation will also be covered by myself, this will need to be agreed separately.

Food and drink will be provided.

Travel will be paid once receipts for travel are provided and the equivalent return travel payments will be included in the pay for elements of a journey that can’t be purchased as a return journey, ie taxi.

Models expected to have a well stocked model bag with a variety of shoes, several matching sets of underwear, a selection of high heel shoes and is free to bring items that they would like to propose for use on the shoot. I also have a very expensive collection of custom made design pieces, jewelry and a good selection of clothing.

Nails both hands and feet must be clear.

Model to wear loose clothing during travel to the shoot to avoid marks from jeans or tight fitting bras.

A model release will need to be signed at the end of the shoot before any payment can be made.

I may send select fully retouched images from the shoot to the model granting permission for use in their own portfolios and social media. Images must be kept on the original form, not edited in any way including cropping and the Mantino watermark must be kept in place.

Images are not to be sold or published and remain properly of Marcus Mantino.

The goal of the shoots will be to create stunning imagery working collaboratively bringing each of our ideas together, the energy we create will be key to the success of the final outcome, I am relaxed, confident and straightforward photographer and am in a very fortunate position allowing me to be able to shoot the kind of work I want, I am not trying to target a particular commercial style, my end goal is the creation of works of art but i am open to creative proposals.
