This page covers general information not covered elsewhere.
Being Accompanied
You are welcome to bring someone along with you to assist you during your photoshoot, or simply to watch.
Please note, that persons aged under 18 years old, must be accompanied by a responsible adult, as per our policy for photoshoots with juveniles. We also do not take boudoir, lingerie, fetish, BDSM or naked pictures when a juvenile is present.
For photoshoots taking place at Richard’s studio, you will have use of a large double bedroom with an attached ensuite bathroom. There’s a dressing table with mirrors, a wall-mounted mirror and an adjustable floor mirror to help you get your look just right.
There’s also a large wardrobe for you to hang any outfits ready to change into.
We will provide complimentary face wipes for removing makeup and towels for showering.
Makeup Artists
You are welcome to bring your own makeup artist or to visit one before attending the photoshoot.
If you are selecting your own makeup artist, we strongly suggest one who has experience working with transgender clients and can adjust their makeup to suit your face and desired look if you are a transgender model. It is even better if the makeup artist can be present during the day so they can touch up makeup or give you a new look if you are changing outfits or the style of photos.
Richard may be able to help arrange makeovers if needed. Please let him know, and he’ll do his best to put you in touch with a local artist who can assist.
When Do I Get My Images?
Ideally, you’ll pick your images on the day of the photoshoot, discussing options with Richard. The selection of images is entirely your own, but Richard will be able to assist in picking out the best ones if you need guidance. We’ll expect you’ll struggle as there’ll be too many good ones to pick from!
After the images are chosen, Richard will discuss the look you want for each photo before starting the editing process. These are outlined on our information pages, which explain the editing process and profiles. We don’t rush this: we want to ensure that you get the best quality photos; typically it takes between two to four weeks to receive your processed images.
Images are uploaded to a password-protected area of our website. On the first login, you’ll be asked to generate your own password, which you will use for subsequent photoshoots. You will be able to download full-size high definition images, which are great for printing, and smaller, lower-resolution files, which are great for social media and internet use.
You’ll also be able to order prints and artwork with your image.
