I would like to answer this question with a comparison. Nobody asks a skier why he spends so much money on equipment, ski pass, etc. for his sporting pleasure. Just as the skier pursues his pleasure, I also pursue only my hobby and pleasure. The only difference between a skier and me is that the skier can do his hobby alone. I, on the other hand, need a model for my hobby. Always just photographing the blank wall would be a bit boring. By the way, a professional model would cost many times more than if I photograph you for free.

I usually work on a TfP (Time for Print) basis, which means the photographer and the model invest the time and both get the rights to the pictures. You can do what you want with the pictures. For example, you can also post them on Instagram or sell them. I am allowed to post your photos on my website in return.
If I addressed you about a photo shoot or you want to make pregnancy pictures, by the way, you may additionally decide on your own which pictures I may put on my website. So you don't take any risk.

Which pictures you want to take I leave up to you. For me, a good photo is a photo where you think you can discover a little piece of a person's soul. That's why I want to take photos where you are "yourself". That doesn't necessarily mean that a photo only shows what people normally get to see of you, it can definitely be a side of you that you don't normally show. In general, this results in pictures that go in the direction of beauty or fashion photography, but also quite normal portraits. Sometimes lingerie or nude photos are also desired. You alone decide which pictures will be taken. In the gallery you can find some examples of my work.

Just bring different pieces of clothing that you feel particularly beautiful in. Also bring matching accessories (jewellery, belts, bags, etc.). High heels are always an advantage because they automatically give you body tension and body tension is important for good photos.

Yes, the pictures are edited with Photoshop. But I don't do any cosmetic surgery with Photoshop. Only skin blemishes, shiny spots or the like are removed. If there are unsightly bruises or distortions due to the chosen pose or the camera lens, these will be softened somewhat. Scars are only removed if you explicitly want this. In general, I try to edit a picture so that it has the same effect as I perceived the model during the shooting.
