 I have answered a couple posts on some local adds. What you have to watch out for is the fine print that isn't there.. Find a good local manager or photo manager that sets up sessions for models and take it from there. When you do a session with an individual photographer that has no backround, you might end up all over where you don't wanna be.. That manager or model manager covers you with a contract that makes sure you get paid, gets your pics or whatever the deal is! If you forfiet your face, you sign it out! Its well worth it! Get a manager before you get in too deep! They may have some pics to show you for "refernence", but they may not be true to you either.. You have to watch what you deal with and where you get it from.. Overall, be real to yourself and put yourself in the photographers position.. What can they get away with with what they are telling you! If you doubt them at all, don't bother! If it is at an individuals house and they want you to come by yourself, don't bother, if they are asking for pornography and you don't want that, don't bother, be yourself and don't degrade yourself!! If you got a good head on your shoulder still and got your paperwork in order, you should be ok.. My point, just pay attention.. You actually don't work for the photographer on a tfp (TradeForpics), another one is TFCD(trade for pics on disc). Its a full trade, meaning, you posed, they give you all original pics on disc when you leave. Unless you sign a release, they are not alowed to use your face on anything, but are allowed to use anything else on the pics for whatever they want!!! Just be careful with your desicions and if you have any questions or are looking for a manager, let me know. Most managers make money on the photographers and not us, so don't be afraid to open up to it, just be aware of what you are getting into..
