Zivity info for models

john@jklebphoto.com (J. Kleb Photography) — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 00:00:00 GMT

Here are some examples of my work for Zivity, and images of the same style from before I shot sets for Zivity. Page two is some shots of the alternate shooting location at the old house. Please note these were taken on the day we were given permission to use the place and it was an absolute wreck from the previous tenants.

Zivity is a cross between a traditional pay site and social networking. Subscribers get a number of votes with their monthly subscription, and use those votes to support the sets and models they like. Each vote is worth $1; with the model receiving 60% of that and the site and the photographer splitting the remaining 40%. Checks are sent out quarterly as soon as you have at least $50 payable. Yes, you make 3 times what I do from this. You probably won't get rich here but you can get back some investment. I'll make enough to buy a coke or two.

Networking with the subscribers will increase your sales and build a customer relation with your fans. Send them a note when you have a new set going live, send them a note to thank them for votes, sign up for chats, and have an interesting and positive profile page. It's sales like any other type of commission sales job.

There is an initial model release you will sign with the site that will cover all your submissions to Zivity. At that time you will also need to complete a W-9 for the IRS and have a copy of a government issued photo ID. I have both forms available to fill out at your first shoot, can make a copy of your ID, and can send in all the paper work with your first photo set. You will need an account on the site to approve your images before they can be published. You can either email the site administrator and request a trial membership at info@zivity.com or I can send you an invite code for a trial membership. Either way after your first set is published your account will change from a trial membership to a free artists account.

Zivity's content guidelines and requirements leave a lot of room for creativity. The set can only feature one model, cannot contain real or fake body fluids, cannot have the hands within three inches of the genitals, and does not require nudity.

I will shoot sets for Zivity similar to a TF shoot. In exchange for your modeling time I will edit and upload at least 15 images for a set on the site. The images sent to the site will also be uploaded to a private gallery for you on my website with full size watermarked images. These images are available for you to use for non-commercial and self promotion use online and in print. Images submitted for contests on Zivity will split the winnings 50/50 between us. A typical shoot will last around for hours and will produce three to four sets for the site. While the site does not require nudity, I do expect to shoot nudity or partial nudity in most of the sets. People pay more to see more of you. Shoots will usually take place at my studio in Hockley, or at the old house which is about 10min from there.

I do allow escorts on set. If you feel an escort would male you more comfortable than please invite someone along. I do request that the escort to be a significant other. I've found they can be more of an unintentional distraction than a help in most cases. Also, since these shoots will involve nudity please make sure your escort is 18 or older.

The BB-35 Project

john@jklebphoto.com (J. Kleb Photography) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 22:40:50 GMT

Photographs from aboard the battleship Texas. This is a personal project of mine to show the old warhorse while she still sits in the water. Plans are underway to berth the ship in a dry mooring surrounded by dirt to save her from corrosion. The ship is almost 100 years old and it's a constant fight to keep time at bay. The Texas is the last surviving dreadnaught in the world, the one time flagship of the US navy, the only battleship to have fought in both World Wars, the Pacific, and the Atlantic.
