If you live in the south florida area, or are visiting, I am always seeking new, unique looks for various projects or for self promotional works.

Model shoots are extremely laid back and fun. I work with both professional models and first time amateurs.

If you have your own costumes or props, great! prints of any finished illustrations are available, as are copies of all photos taken. I try to structure my pay to be as fair as possible - and try to pay more on a higher paying illustration project. generally, I pay around $30 an hour. If you are a professional, let me know your pro rate, and I'll try to respect that if I can afford it, or save you for a project where i can pass off the cost.

what happens? well, for you first timers - above is the photo reference for the bookcover to the right. i'm the model for this one, by the way.

which brings me to the question of nudity is it required? absolutely not. I do many illustration pieces with absolutely no nudity (and many where it is not appropriate). i do do some with frontal or hip nudity (no genetalia). if you are interested in partial nude, i do pay more for this. and attire is generally a thong - we also drape a lot of fabric (or like the image above) duct tape cloth to your stomach to hang like a low backed skirt. you can see by my work that all nudity is tasteful and beautiful, and i do not share any shots that i take with anyone (and am willing to put that in the model agreement).

you're welcome to bring a guest to the shoot. i work with a digital camera, and take between 50-500 shots depending on the length of the shoot.

to apply, simply email me with several photos of yourself. i look forward to hearing from you! echo@echo-x.com
