casting

The casting call is the first step to becoming a model. This is an opportunity for the casting director to meet you. Important information will be collected such as wardrobe measurements, contact information and scheduling availability. All scheduled photoshoots are paid if you are selected. The rate will be decided by the director, but usually corresponds to your experience. Rates are paid per shoot. If you are cast, then you will be contacted within a few days by email to work out further details. If you are not contacted within the following week it means you are not currently cast. Please do not take casting decisions personally. Moreover, it is a good idea to periodically try again. Sometimes what the director is looking for has changed or a new skill or physical change on your part could prove positive for the decision.

If this is your first casting call, below are a few recommendations that will help give the most professional and honest representation of you.

-be on time

-no makeup

-no eyelash extensions

-hair down or pulled back

-clean and trimmed nails

-wear form fitting jeans, tights or shorts and t-shirt or tank top

-bring swim suit or underwear to change into

Keep in mind that the casting is to get an accurate representation of what you look like. It is not a good idea to compensate, cover up or embellish any physical characteristics at this time. Physical measurements will be needed, they can be provided ahead of time or taken at the casting. Please include any special talents including sports, skills, etc.

Fitness Photo is a photography studio and not a modeling agency. That means that there is no exclusive employment contract between model and photographer. The relationship is at will. Though the studio is not necessarily active in promoting the success of the model, some marketing materials including certain images for use in composite cards and portfolios will be made available free of charge and should be considered as good will. There is no requirement that the studio make available any of the photos, and the decision to do so rests solely at their discretion. The extent of the employment is limited to the completion of the scheduled photoshoot and the agreed upon payment for said photoshoot. The photo studio retains all rights to all of the photos, videos and any other media. Their use and distribution of the media is part of the proprietary operations of the business and constitutes intellectual property. These methods change from time to time and market to market, none of which will be disclosed to models. Fitness Photo agrees to, and abides by all local and federal applicable laws and ordinances, including those that apply to the rights of minors. Please fill out the forms below to get started.
