Amaterur Photographer Looking For Work Experience

[urdygurdy]

I am an avid amateur photographer looking to get into the business of glamor / model photography in a very creative kind of way, and i am offering to shoot for free for anyone who wishes to give me a chance. I am currently using a canon Eos 40D, but i juts need to build a portfolio of my work for prospective clients and gain experience.

I prefer natural surrounding over studio work, and of course all images i take will be yours after processing if required.

I am willing to travel in the Birmingham, wales, Manchester & Liverpool areas.

I am also very competent in Adobe Photo shop Cs3 for post processing my work.

If anyone wishes to give me a chance and or try me out then please email me.

Regards

Darren

OK Dazzie here is some feed back for you...

Your pics are good, however I found Pic 1 overly photoshopped, the rest were good even if a little arty...

This board is a "Porn" board, not a photography forum... people do not want arty or creative... they want good old fashioned tits and ass... fucking and sucking... if there was a list of priorities creative would proberly be on there around number 8, and arty wouldnt even make the list...

I would suggest if you havent already you sign up to www.net-model.com and www.purestorm.com create profiles on there, post in their forums and message some models offering Time for CD work... get some models who are interested in having their portfolio expanded...

This will help you build your portfolio and experience... I would suggest you offer to cover the models travel (only fair) and I guess you need to think where you will actually shoot the content, with the summer nearly here you can always do some outdoor work...

Are you looking to get specifically into adult work ?

cheers for your advice,

I am not after taking shots for myself or for my personal collection, i am hopefully looking at working for others people in the business as a photographer in the glamor / modeling industry whether it be for models portfolios & websites or maybe for companies to use on there websites magazines ect..... ............if that makes sense, how ever i do realize i need to get a portfolio together of my work to show prospective clients.

cheers

Yeah Dazzie...

And also as I said your creative eye may not be best served here... pople are mainly looking for quantity over quality...

I myself shoot pretty quick and look to get a lot of content done... being creative isnt always something I think a lot about... the models usually know the poses you want... I would say 99% of the images are pretty much always the same, with 1% of creativity from the photographer or model during a set...

Some may disagree... but when you are shooting content for a site example its about maximising the content, I guess some of the more niche stuff may have a little more thought put into it

I think it's funny when people say anything in black and white is arty. Nice photos
