We Are in Need of Excellent Models for Artistic Nude
Artkeep is always in need of models for high end artistic nude photoshoots. We have both website and print clients who contract with us to provide high quality photoshoots for display on the web and to be printed in coffee table top books. For this type of work our clients as well as Artkeep require the following:
1. For most websites the models need to be between the ages of 18-24, not looking like they are in that age range, but actually there. We have one client that will take models over that age all the way to 30 or so, but these models have to be particularly pretty, and be in very good shape.
2. Unfortunately we have no clients who will accept any model with implants regardless of whether they "look" real or not.
3. Models with excessive tattoos or very large tattoos, or even worse having tattoos in certain areas such as on the breasts or pelvic areas are incredibly difficult to shoot unless the shoot is for print only and as such it is possible to remove the tattoos with photoshop. With large shoots such as for web content, this is difficult or totally impractical.
4. In order to obtain approvals from our clients for us to hire the models, we have to supply the clients with sample photos of the models. Often the model on OMP has only [5] photos, and even more often these photos are old, no longer representational of how the model looks. We need at least 20 good or excellent photos and the better they are the more likely it is that we will get approvals. We can be emailed to Artkeep.
5. Any model wishing to be shot or have work by Artkeep must place on deposit with us a "Kill Fee" of at least $100.00 a day for the time period contracted for, with the deposit being totally refunded at the end of the shoot when the model is paid for the work performed. We do this because of the incredibly high "stand up ratio" presently being incurred by models being hired from OMP. We wish this was not the case. Models with whom we have previously worked are not included in this category. In the event that we have contracted with models which we have agreed to pay travel expenses, the deposit will be waived when confirmation that travel tickets for the time frame contracted for has been sent to us at the time of booking. If a cancellation needs to be made for emergency situations proper documentation must be supplied within 7 days prior to the shoot. Any cancellation after that time frame the deposit will be forfeited.
