Hello I'm Gary .If you like my images feel free to suggest them as a FrontPage Image (the grey gear icon on your top right when you are viewing an image) It would be great to promote the beautiful models I've worked with :)

So I have noticed a few models offer private collection shoots , I am happy to shoot  private collection work . Not all of my work is published or in the public domain . Sometimes I shoot just to explore ideas and new genres , and they remain in my private collection.

Ok a bit about me , have done studio photo-shoots for Arts council projects , fashion shoots for a brand  and have also done my own projects on based on fashion and beauty . My next project will be exploring identity. I will be looking for models from all ethnic groups  to capture them in traditional dress. Also I will be looking at the gym tribe and the party tribes and various groups who identify with a distinct life style that they feel represents their tribe.

I have worked with models from all over the world and learnt so much from those beautiful creative ladies. I feel 2024 is time to explore the world and discover new ways of looking at the world and new methods of creation. 

I'm also here to to experiment with different photography styles and collaborate with some great people. I do from TF to fully paid work for models based on the going rate on purple port. So feel free to contact me, whether your a new or season model if you want to build your portfolio ,I have access to studios and costumes. So lets get making some beautiful images :) 

For designers and any one who wants to create a promo of their product or service , I can create themes to promote your product or service using photography and video . I can do collaboration or full paid work depending on project and budget . I have planned shot and edited a few music videos.

Here are some sample shots of a variety of my projects

flickr Sample Shots 

 

Trade,  TFP, Time For Prints 

What I have always done with TFP Trade is to indicate the minimum amount of Edited pictures you will get . As the amount of shots I take in a shoot varies . Currently its a minimum of 15 edited shots only. I do not give out unedited shots or the whole of my shoot because . I want to maintain quality and I don't want them to be reedited and attributed to me. Also the terms of a trade shoot is that you get a specified amount of edit shots , and not everything I have shot.  We can negotiate before the shoot and you can decide then before you agree to the shoot. After the shoot I don't negotiate. It causses a lot of problems if we agree on one thing and then it changes after the shoot. If your not sure of anything just ask. Everyone has different experiences and definitions of what things mean or what they have done in the past . So I am just trying to be clear on my definition . Just to be clear it is inline with Purple Ports Definition of TFP Trade I am just adding more detail when the term applies to what I do. 

Collaborations 

Similar to Trade but more room for negotiation before the shoot , bespoke to each collaborator depending on their level of involvement and contribution to the shoot.
