What happens after the photoshoot?
Generally the photographer will expect payment immediately following the shoot. The images (either digital or on contact sheets) will either be given to your agency or you will be requested to pick them up. At this time you should sit down with your agent/booker and select the photos you will use in your portfolio. If you end up with two or three really strong pictures from each look, that’s a successful photoshoot. It does not matter how many mediocre or lousy shots you have. All that matter are the really good ones. Once you have selected the photos, you will order them from the photographer. IT IS VERY RARE for the photographer to release all the images to you or your agent. They tend to be rather protective of their work and in most countries the rights belong to them. Again, you will be required to pay the photographer for every print you order.
