Nach deiner Buchung erhältst du Zugang zum Charakter-Quiz. Sobald dein Charakter steht, planen wir gemeinsam dein persönliches Shooting-Erlebnis inklusive Location, Styling und Story-Elementen.
Dann geht es an den Vertrag und die Bezahlung. Ein Shooting findet erst statt, wenn es bezahlt ist.
Beim Shooting gehen wir noch einmal gemeinsam alles durch, klären noch offene Fragen und lassen uns noch kreativen Raum für zusätzliche Ideen.
Ich achte immer auf genügend Pausen dazwischen und plane mir den ganzen Tag für das Shooting ein, dass ich mich voll und ganz auf dich und deine kreative Ader konzentrieren kann.
Kaffee, Getränke und Snacks sind natürlich inkl.
-
Je nach Paket und Konzept ca. 2–4 Stunden. Genug Zeit, um tief in deine Szene einzutauchen und deinen Charakter lebendig werden zu lassen.
Bitte plane dir jedoch nichts an unserem Shooting Tag ein. Stress und Druck sollen vermieden werden und sind der Killer für kreatives schaffen. Ich möchte eine stressfreie Atmosphäre für beide Seiten beibehalten.

Home Studio Shootings, wie das Composing Shooting, sind 100 % in meinem Home Studio in Rust einzuplanen. Dort habe ich mein ganzes Equipment.
Ansonsten bin ich außerhalb von Conventions und Shootingreisen nur in BaWü anzutreffen.
Bei den meisten Shootings haben sich Models auch schon bereiterklärt mich mit dem Auto zu spezifischen Locations ab Banhof XY mitzunehmen, dies wäre auch noch eine Möglichkeit.
Der Europapark habe ich aber auch hier, wo man unter bestimmten Bedingungen auch shooten darf. (Eintritt muss jedoch selbst gezahlt werden)

Du kannst zwischen 3 - 6 Monatsraten wählen. Mehr Raten sind auf Anfrage möglich.

Überhaupt nicht! Ich begleite dich durch jede Szene. Du brauchst keine Erfahrung – nur die Lust, in eine neue Rolle zu schlüpfen. Ich helfe dir mit Posen, Ausdruck und Atmosphäre.

Absolut! Bei mir sind alle Körperformen und Größen willkommen. Ich gestalte das Shooting so, dass dein Charakter und deine Einzigartigkeit im Mittelpunkt stehen. Egal, ob du schon Erfahrung vor der Kamera hast oder nicht, hier findest du einen Safe Space, in dem du dich selbstbewusst und wunderschön zeigen kannst. Dein Charakter wird lebendig, genau so, wie du es dir vorstellst. Zusätzlich dazu habe ich auch schon mit Plus Size Models Erfahrung, schau gerne in meinem Portfolio nach.
