My name is Richard Santos. I am a photographer & artist/illustrator, too. I would like to work w/ various models on a Trade For CD to build my portfolio while helping them attain new, quality images. For your general information, I do not do nude photographic work. I am interested in shooting in familiar outdoor settings around town, but planning to do more indoor/studio work soon. I am open to any ideas/themes you may have for a shoot, too. I am very easy to work w/, like to have a fun shoot and will accomodate your schedule as best as I can. Check out my work & if you are interested, send me a note. I'll also contact select models whom I think would benefit my portfolio. ------------------------------------------------------------ STARTING SEPT. 2009 - PLEASE READ! INFO ON PICS ----> (TFCD) Trade For CD means you will get a CD of free pictures for your time. Due to the high amount of pics taken at a shoot, it most likely it will not include every single shot or large quantities of images. I want only my best work posted or in circulation & will usually delete unusable shots. For example, sometimes several pics are taken in the same pose to get that one 'perfect' shot. That doesn't mean every single shot will be deleted, but instead the pics that are unfixable or unusable (overexposed, underexposed, out-of-focus, etc.). But the CD will include the type and quality of images that will reflect your talent as a model & lead you to paying assignments. The average will be about 30 edited, high quality pictures or more. If you prefer most of the shots of a given shoot be included, please let me know & we'll see what can be worked out. Thanks for your understanding. ------------------------------------------------------------ *** READ! ----> I AM LOOKING TO WORK W/ RELIABLE MODELS ONLY! If you something comes up or you simple change your mind about shooting, just tell me so and give me advance notice, at the very least. I don't mind rescheduling if you let me know the time need to be changed, but I am serious about art & photography and I do NOT want to waste my time w/ wannabe models who don't show up to shoots & don't call or text. Don't mean to be rude but flakers are not welcomed! Once you get to know me, you'll find I am a very understanding, light-hearted, sympathetic, fun and professional-minded person, but if you can't extend common courtesy & etiquette, then perhaps modeling isn't for you. ------------------------------------------------------------ WEEKEND SHOOTS - I will be shooting in Fall primarily on weekends and some weekdays. I know it is everyone's time to rest after a long week (I work long hours myself), but anything worthwhile requires DEDICATION & COMMITMENT. If you prefer to hang w/ friends on the weekends than model, I understand completely, but please don't bother to contact me, reply back or waste my time. The reason I'm I'm repeating what I said earlier is to make it as clear as I can. Believe me, I'm not trying to be rude; just honest. I want to avoid flakers as much as possible. ------------------------------------------------------------ REGARDING ESCORTS - I usually will not have a problem w/ an escort unless they are going to interefere w/ the shoot. But no jealous boyfriend, unstable friends, etc. However, an escort is unnecessary because I conduct myself professionally in all aspects of the industry and expect the models I work with to do the same. However, if you prefer an escort, please make sure they are at least w/ you for a reason, meaning an MUA or Wardrobe/Stylist/Personal Assistant. Unless we are selling tickets to a show, there's no reason for anyone to be standing around watchinh. This should be arranged prior to the session date. ------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for your time & understanding. Hope to shoot w/ many of you soon...

Will keep you posted.
