None at the moment. Will be back soon!

DYNAMIC Slot Action
After some serious thought I've decided to offer an exclusive special slot for those who may have a bigger budget and the desire for a full body dynamic shot. This sort of photography involves more extreme angles, usually taken from a below or above eye-level perspective. If this interests you the fee is 200k. **This slot may also be used for a normal full body or for a couple half body.

In addition to your normal application form please add references or information about the clothing you wish to wear in the photo, your preference of photo-angle if you have one and that you wish to have a Dynamic slot.

+ -------Applications +
If you wish to be considered as a model for the Black Heart Project please read the following, fill out an application and submit it to the processing office.

All models will be receiving a unique head and shoulder portrait, as featured above, for 35k. This fee must be paid up-front before film development. If there is a cancellation before image completion your 35k will be refunded. Payment, if not in pure gold, can be discussed privately and arrangements will be made if possible.

Disclaimer: In the case of an overloaded studio schedule, please be aware that not every applicant will be photographed. In such instances, Torence will be hand picking models that he finds to be exceptionally intriguing. You are encouraged to be as original, cutting edge and creative as possible. You are allowed three applications per submission period and they may be resubmitted in future submission periods if desired.

A little about "The man behind the camera".

Torence Dimire(De-mir-re) started his career early in life, but not as a photographer. He was first and foremost a model. After years of wearing clothes he didn’t particularly like he dropped from that scene and joined the ranks of photography as suggested by his mother, also a photographer in the business. This facet of fashion he found to be much more fulfilling, but still lacking. Although his sense of achievement had improved the same “bad clothes” he had tried to escape earlier remained ever present .

Determined to rid himself of these eyesores or at least combat them, Torence went to work and forged a line of his own. Transfixed hit the market shortly after he finished college with a degree in Apparel and Design. Torence is currently running his second line of clothing and is considered a “designer on the rise” not only for his sense of style, but for his deep involvement in the fashion production line.

"Sure he was rather... ... overbearing at the beginning... but I'd trust myself with no other photographer now." - Taka M.

Gored. Application Process.
What you will be receiving is a bold head&shoulders image forged from red and white. This is a much more fluid type of portraiture that involves more artistic intent expressed through pose and emotion. The price for such is 35k. Please be prepared to pay this upfront. All application forms should be posted in the processing office.

WARNING: This is strictly a red and white operation. Light colored hair will be portrayed as white with red shadowing, all skin will be portrayed as an absence of color and all eye color will be turned to red(with the exception of two tone eyes - then one will be white and one red). If you do not feel your character can be portrayed appropriately under these circumstances then please return to the front of the studio. No exceptions will be made.

Please be thorough when filling out this form and remember, this is my interpretation of what you write.

*Write in either red ink or leave the project name slot as "Gored" on your application form.
Gored Application
