If you are a model who would like to easily expand your portfolio, read on. We’re looking for several models to exchange their time in a photo shoot in return for free prints. This offer is open to children (preferably at least 8 years old), teens & adults.

The photo shoot will take place at our studio in Shrewsbury, Pennsylvania and will take about  2 hours. We’ll digitally edit & enhance the best photographs, and then make them available for you to download within 2 weeks. You can expect to receive the best 5 photos from the shoot which you can then print or add to your online portfolios.

This opportunity is open to those living within a reasonable drive from Shrewsbury, Pennsylvania and would include those in York, PA as well as those in the Baltimore, MD area. If you live in Fallston, Bel Air or Forest Hill in Harford County, MD, this photo op is perfect for you. If you live in Stewartstown, Red Lion or Glen Rock in York County, PA, we’d be glad to have you come for a shoot.

If you are interested in this time-for-print photo shoot opportunity, please contact us as soon as possible to make a reservation and schedule your shoot.

We will then need you to fill out one of the following forms (downloadable pdf files from our photographer forms page):

• Adult Model Release Form (TFP) – if you are 18 or older
• Minor Model Release Form (TFP) – if you are under 18; a parent/legal guardian will need to sign it

If you have any questions about this TFP photo shoot opportunity for models, amateur models or those interested in possibly entering the modeling business, please feel free to ask us anytime.

FAQ

What is a TFP shoot?

TFP stands for “time for prints.” It’s an arrangement with a photographer to exchange your modeling time in return for selected prints from the shoot. In our case, we’ll provide you with the best 5 pictures which will be retouched. We actually do a TFDP shoot which is a “time for downloadable prints” photoshoot.

How many pictures will I receive?

We guarantee you’ll receive the best 5 pictures from the shoot (which we’ll pick out). Occasionally, we may throw in some extras, but 5 is the promised and safe expectation.

Will you come to my location for a TFP shoot?

We can only do TFP shoots at our studio in Shrewsbury, PA. We can travel to your location (within a reasonable drive) with our $250 photoshoot package. Please contact us for more information.

What should I bring to the TFP shoot?

Bring at least 4 different outfits. Some recommendations include

• prom/formal dress
• sports/athletic attire
• casual (slacks/jeans & top)
• swimwear
• dancewear (leotard/ballet apparel)
• costume (be creative!)
• loungewear/sleepwear

Bring any props that you will need, including hats, musical instruments, decorative fans/umbrellas, etc.
