Welcome to our Classic Man Casting & Shooting event in Orlando Florida,

We are pleased to announce Several days of creativity and celebration of the male image in art and photography.

If you are interested in being a part of this shooting schedule you must send us that request via email not later than February 18th

If you have never modeled with us before, or it has been more then a year,  you will need to complete the Model Search form on our website. A photo MUST be attached. We will call you if we are interested in scheduling you for this or another shoot.  If you have shot with us recently and would like to be considered we will still need to you send us your request via email.  Space and shooting schedules are limited so we will be working ONLY by schedule and appointment.

Please read this page completely so that we are all on the same page with plans and schedules.

In order to make this schedule go smoothly and so as to insure that we all come away from the event with the images

we need I ask that everyone respect the time schedule and be ON TIME, or even early for their shoot.

Be prepared and bring along whatever clothing or props you may be looking to have in your shots.

Classic Man will provide all that we need for our projects. Water, juice and fruit will be available throughout the day (s)

A light refreshment will be served with conversation at the end of the day on Thursday  for anyone wishing

to relax after a full days work or planning to stay in town for Fridays shooting.

Please take time to read the information at the bottom of this page concerning release forms and other important information.

Shooting Schedule

* one or more of the shoots for the Sacred Sensual Self book are a required shoot for all models seeking TFP/CD trades with Classic Man Photography.

Any exceptions to this will need to be made in writing at the time of contracting.

Some Important Information:

I will be spending most of January and February working to sort out my thoughts about each of the men I will be shooting.

Some of whom I know, other I do not.  My way of working is to work from the inside out,

by that I mean I like to see emotion in my shots and to bring out the emotion I like to have input form the men I am shooting.

If you have not answered these already, please do so ASAP...

• How do you see yourself and a Model and as a Man ?

• Do you have any hobbies ?

• What about you makes you "HOT !" and what does not ?

• Have you ever had an unfulfilled Fantasy ? intimate or otherwise ?

• How would you like to see yourself photographed ?

Since this is a TFP shot (as are all of my shoots) What if any specific shots do you require for your profile.

Be honest with your reply and I will begin looking at the sets and props I want to set aside for you when we meet.

Just so that we are all on the same page I am sending the following information to all of the models

taking part in this Photo shoots.
____________________________________________________________

First, let me say I am glad that you have chosen to be a part of the Classic Man Photo Shoots for March 2010

It is shaping up to be several very busy and creative days. All Shooting will take place here in my studio (east Orlando) If you have not been here before please email me with a starting address and we will be sure to get you detailed directions.

1: You will all have times assigned for your specific shoots, PLEASE BE ON TIME, or even early. These days will be hectic enough without having to stop and wait for someone. Should the unexpected keep you from your appointment or delay you PLEASE call my cell phone at 407 721 4088 with as much notice as possible.

2: This is, as are all of my shoots,  a TFP/CD shoot no payments will be made other than the agreement for TFP as stated in the model release that each man will be required to sign before we begin shooting. At that time I will also need a copy (you must make the copy) of the front of your drives license to verify proof of Name, Address and Date of birth.

3: Classic Man Photography will hold the copyright to all images driving from this shoot and will retain all artist and commercial rights to said images exclusively. All images provided you through the TFP agreement will hold the Classic Man Photography copyright notice.

4: Classic Man Photography will provide all of the sets and props required for the shooting we need. Should you have special requests for shoots as detailed in advance with the photographer you will be responsible for any clothing and or props required.

5: Classic Man Photography is about the celebration and honor of the male form and image. We require that all of our models be comfortable with themselves and with their bodies. That they consent to nudity in our images. We take the utmost pride in offering over 20 years of tasteful and artistic nudes of men. We are about nudity in honor and truth, as sensual rather than just sexual. If you are not open to the nudity requirement please notify us ASAP.

6: Classic Man Photography hopes this will be a creative and enjoyable time for everyone concerned. In the same way we insist on a professional environment with all concerned. There will be NO, drugs or Alcohol during the shooting. Smoking between shoots is only allowed in the garden.

7: To insure our agreements with the models and to maintain the clarity of all copyright infringements, no other cameras, recording devices or photo cell phones may be use during your time here. If any are produced YOU WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE AT ONCE.

Should you have any question or if you are unsure of your shoot times please email well in advance of the shoot dates to be sure we are working on the same schedule. I know a number of you are coming to Orlando from out of town. Should you need pick up from the airport or your hotel AGAIN the more notice we have the better. There are a number of men coming from the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area if you are looking to car pool let me know and I will be happy to make some contacts. There is limited space for men from out of town to "crash" here in the studio with planning and advanced notice. This space is however quite limited and only available during your specific shooting times.

I look forward to hearing from you and working with you in a few weeks.
