Last Casting Call for PurplePort

Hello.

I shall keep this casting call short.

Firstly

My availability is on my port but as a rule I am available Thursdays to Sundays.  Maybe later on Wednesday afternoon but varies week to week.

I am on a HNC and am moving.  My new Housing Officer expects me to finish moving by Christmas.  Rent don’t seem to understand this but being harassed for debts that are not mine.  Housing Allowance seems to take forever to get organized.

Financially I am being bled dry even my UC being docked 20%, so all my money has gone on bills and additional costs at College which I didn’t know about beforehand, like a hefty deposit for a trip months in advance.

In short what maintenance I can get at this time, is not enough.  Any additional money due to me or funding.  I have no information on when that happens or timescale, maybe too late to do any good.

Bills don’t seem to stop do they?  Only go up!

So I am back to my photography again.  The irony, that is my HNC.

I have 30 references that surely are worth something?

At PurplePort rates as listed for a minimum 2 hour booking.  That would just keep my head above water week to week.  If 4 hours that is 1 weeks rent.  A whole day 2 weeks rent with money left over. 

Should I sell even 1 print.  That is almost 3 weeks rent or I can get much needed furniture or even removal fees, a trusted man with a van at least. 

I can accept Cash, PayPal and Direct.

I can get to nearby places like Gloucester, Bath, Cardiff and Taunton subject to Travel expenses.

I don’t fit any organisations idea of Diversity, Equality and Inclusion.  So I am finding doors slammed in my face, no matter what I know or I have done.

New models wanting to get their portfolio started (subject to my levels) do get in touch.

I am also available for Private Commissions, do enquire.  As always subject to my levels.

Secondly

Now I do intend to be able to shoot from home at my new place which I am in the process of moving too. 

It is extremely bare bones at the moment.  I have no furniture other than a fold up table and 1 chair.  No bed but 1 pillow.  A couple of serious faults with the property that need fixing.  So on hold.  I have no fridge/freezer.  No cooker.  I may need a new fridge and freezer as what can fit, ditto cooker, what can get in the door.

Carpet and Underlay is now done though.

I may need a new desk and my TV is stuck to the top of my stand, such good grip, so will have to be moved as one unit, if possible.

Thirdly

While this is a paid casting for myself.  I do need assistance with moving.

So any model for instance with access to suitable transport (estate or van even better).  A bonus if you are on my WTWW list and we haven’t photographed yet.

If you can get to South Bristol and want to help me with moving for 2 hours, in exchange for 2 hours photography from me at no charge, do get in touch.

Fourthly

I do have a GoFundMe up.  Link on my port.  While I am likely to get funeral expenses at some unknown date so I can pay that back.  I do need a headstone, so I will leave that up.

I have many photographs on my port so please do have a look.

This is the last throw of the dice from me.  So I shall see how this goes.  Otherwise I have had it.

Kind words are wonderful but they don’t pay bills or expenses.

So fingers crossed!

Mark.
