COLLAB CLUB

An Update on Collaborations & TFP Shoots at DLJones Images

Over the past five years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with hundreds of models through collaborations and TFP (Trade for Print) shoots. Many of those sessions led to great connections, creative breakthroughs, and lasting partnerships. I’m truly grateful for the positive experiences and the amazing people I’ve had the chance to work with.

However, not every experience has been ideal, and as DLJones Images continues to grow, I’ve reached a point where I need to be more intentional with my time and creative energy. That means making some changes moving forward.

What’s Changing?

As of now, I will no longer be accepting new collaboration or TFP requests.

I have a core group of models I work with regularly—what I like to call my Collab Club. These are models who are dedicated to their craft, constantly growing, and who bring intention and professionalism to every shoot. I will continue collaborating with these individuals as we’ve always done.

That said, please note:
Just because we’ve worked together before does not automatically mean you’re part of the Collab Club.
This group is reserved for those who consistently bring value and passion to our sessions and treat modeling as a serious pursuit.

I’ve also realized that many people enjoy having beautiful photos taken—but aren’t necessarily focused on developing as models. That’s absolutely okay! But in those cases, a paid session is the best way to move forward, and I invite you to check out my Investments page for details on booking a shoot.

So What Are Your Options?

If you’re excited about working together, I’m still offering several ways to collaborate—each with a little structure and clarity around expectations:

1. Book a Session

The most direct way to work with me is by booking a session as a client. You’ll get a fully customized shoot experience with all the attention, creativity, and quality that comes with the DLJones Images brand.

2. Join the Waitlist

While I’m not accepting new free collabs, I may occasionally open up limited opportunities. If that happens, I’ll pull from a curated waitlist. These shoots won’t be free, but they’ll come at a discounted rate and with specific terms.

3. Apply to the Ambassador Program

I’m developing an Ambassador Program that’s designed to offer mutual benefits—collaboration, promotion, and even potential earnings. This is still in the works, but if it sounds like your vibe, I’d love to keep you in the loop.

4. Patreon Shoots (18+)

For models who create artistic nude, implied, or boudoir-style content that isn’t Instagram-friendly, I run a private 18+ Patreon page. I’m looking to produce more exclusive content for that platform. If you’re comfortable with this style of work, we can set up a trade shoot specifically for Patreon.

Final Thoughts

While I’m stepping away from free shoots, I’m not stepping away from creativity, collaboration, or connection. I’m just shifting how I do it to ensure we all get the most out of our time together.

Thank you to everyone who’s been part of the journey so far. Here’s to the next chapter—with purpose, passion, and great art.

With appreciation,
DLJones Images
