Time For Prints

Time for prints is a co-operation for mutual benefit: The model puts in her/his time, resources and effort, and the photographer does the same. No money changes hands. Both, the model and the photographer cover their own expenses and benefit from each other's skills and talents.
As the name suggests, the model's fee consists of photographic prints. Given that the session will be digital this will mean the model receives digital images instead of physical prints.

Prints for time also means that nobody has commissioned the photographer to take the photographs. The photographer does what is termed personal work.

Prints for time is meant to be a low budget affair. More often than not, the model will be required to do her/his own hair and make-up, and supply her/his own clothes. In certain cases it may be possible to get a make-up artist involved, although this may involve a small "kit fee".

I’ll approach the shoot with professionalism and hope you will too. It should be fun but also an opportunity for model & photographer to combine their effort, imagination, creativity and produce some art.

Typically a TFP session will require a model release, which clarifies both parties’ rights to the resulting images.
