Hi! Apologies for the silly question… a semi-professional photographer offered to do a shoot with me. However, didn’t mention a price when I asked what was needed from me & their general process. I have never been photographed before… (& I would obviously tip regardless if it’s a free shoot or not…) I just feel a little confused? If you reach out and offer to shoot somebody is it generally for your portfolio/free? I should add it is boudoir style photographer- & while I ironically had intentions of hiring him in the near future, he reached out first…? Thanks all! I am aware I could directly ask I fear I’m bad at picking up social cues & don’t want to come across as unintentionally naive

    Bring a friend. I do not think a tip is necessary as they are likely going to use the photos in their portfolio. You are doing them a favor, not the other way around.
