I always work with a model release form

If it bothers you to sign it, then it is best not to expend each other's time...

With conventional beauty, fashion or art figure photography, our naughty bits do not have to flex, croon or smile, leaving the total sense of attractiveness up to the viewer.
Yet our faces, with all of its mighty muscles, must connect spirit to heart. All of its power of persuasion in a single look must enrapture the person on the other side, towards achieving one end, letting you in.

Learn your new lover before you present your lovely face to them. The connection is within your eyes, although the power to connect comes from much deeper within. Learn your craft that the receiver does not face disappointment when your skill set does not match your gift of enticement. Know what they expect and bring a total package to the table of opportunity, that you will make their smile match their perception.

A foot in the door is a great start, but it is just that. Your image on a page may sing first, but your bread and butter are not purchased with a smile. Firm content with good character are more important than the paint on the instrument, it is your staying power.

As a visual artist, I link my world of communication through mathematic geometric pattern, symmetry, composition and light contouring, as well as an attempt to link the spiritual or inner world, connecting free will, culture and common law.

In hopes of invoking thought analysis and stir of emotion, given a specific audience, stretching the sense of comfort to allow a view into a hidden area of the other, in hope of fading lines of delineation, without violating the presence of either.

In theory this is possible, but in the practical, it takes much forethought and planning.
The objective of utilizing persona, comfort zone, imagination, purpose, with color, tonality, exposure latitude, style with character utilizes my education, as it is to date, with a desire to understand more.

While I may possess the heart of expansion, another (team member) may have a mindset of constriction, changing the image face... This may appear to restrict the image as a whole, but in fact, allows individual voiceprint on the presentation.
