6) Use of your data for direct advertising

6.1 Registration for my e-mail newsletter

If you subscribe to my e-mail newsletter, I will send you regular information about my offers. Your e-mail address is the only required information for the newsletter. The indication of further possible data is voluntary and is used to address you personally. I use the so-called double opt-in procedure for sending the newsletter. This means that I will only send you an e-mail newsletter if you have expressly confirmed that you agree to receive the newsletter. I will then send you a confirmation e-mail asking you to click on a link to confirm that you wish to receive future newsletters.

By activating the confirmation link, you give me your consent for the use of your personal data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. When registering for the newsletter, I save your IP address entered by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) as well as the date and time of registration in order to be able to trace possible misuse of your e-mail address at a later date. The data collected by me when registering for the newsletter will be used exclusively for the purpose of advertising in the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link provided for this purpose in the newsletter or by sending a message to the person responsible mentioned at the beginning. After you have unsubscribed, your e-mail address will be deleted from my newsletter distribution list immediately, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or I reserve the right to use your data for other purposes that are permitted by law and about which I inform you in this declaration.

If you have provided me with your e-mail address when purchasing goods or services, I reserve the right to send you regular offers on similar goods or services from my range of products by e-mail. According to § 7 paragraph 3 UWG I do not have to obtain your separate consent for this. The data processing in this respect is based solely on our legitimate interest in personalised direct advertising in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If you have initially objected to the use of your e-mail address for this purpose, I will not send you an e-mail. You are entitled to object to the use of your e-mail address for the aforementioned advertising purpose at any time with effect for the future by notifying the person responsible named at the beginning of this document.

Mailjet uses this information for the dispatch and statistical evaluation of the newsletter on our behalf. For evaluation purposes, the e-mails sent contain so-called web beacons or tracking pixels, which are one-pixel image files stored on my website.

Conversion tracking can also be used to analyse whether a predefined action (e.g. purchase of a product on our website) was carried out after clicking on the link in the newsletter. Technical information is also recorded (e.g. time of access, IP address, browser type and operating system). The data is collected pseudonymously and is not linked to your other personal data, a direct personal reference is excluded. These data are used exclusively for statistical analysis of newsletter campaigns. The results of these analyses can be used to better adapt future newsletters to the interests of the recipients.

If you wish to contradict the data analysis for statistical evaluation purposes, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter.

I have concluded a contract with Mailjet in which I commit Mailjet to protect my customers' data and not to pass them on to third parties.

News

Of course I photograph first and foremost for myself. Of course, as an artist I also feel flattered when my works are presented to the public, when I am available for guest contributions in magazines and reference books, when publishers publish my photos and when I am asked for workshops. I have also given a few interviews about nude photography...
A good model always has a portion of extrovertedness, a photographer probably does...

model cooperation

Basically I have no fixed "booty" scheme; a strong charisma and an extroverted touch is of course what distinguishes a good model. An interesting face and a great body make the work easier.

I prefer silicone-, piercing free women, who also have some hair in the genital area. With tattoos I am choosy. The majority of these bodypaintings I find rather disturbing, only sometimes great. Since there are hardly such "ideal beings", I am also satisfied with less.
"No Body" is perfect. Today there are no more unprocessed photos, on every pic there are some things to optimize. The task of a good photographer is therefore to get the best out of every person.

Optics and figure are important, but for me a good and professional model is much more than just writing "Make only Pay" on the sedcard.

- -Reliability - as far as arrangements/dates etc. are concerned
- body feeling - how do I move and show myself in front of the camera
- facial expression - monotonous facial expression in 500 photos - no thanks

Whenever I talk about a model, I always work on a tfp (time for picture) basis. Travel expenses are covered by me to 50%, board & lodging in case of need. Furthermore I take care of the location and a professional make-up artist. An escort is no problem for me, as long as she stays in the background during the shooting or even makes herself useful.

Interested in a shooting collaboration with me?
I'm looking for models who are personally interested in really good photos - and not just rewind their usual posing program. After more than 250 shootings I can say: Many are pretty, but only very few models have a varied, exciting facial expression, real body feeling and strong expression.

A model who gets involved in a shooting with me is challenged and feels a strong muscle ache the next day, I promise!
You should burn for great photos, that must be our mutual motivation. How long a shooting lasts or how elaborate it is, that is then a minor matter.

I think there are always "bread jobs" that bring money, but the model may not like them and the results are rather "junk". Shootings with me don't pay off immediately in cash, but only by producing top photographic results.

The photos that we create together will definitely help you as a model.
I am looking forward to working with you!

Tom Rider nude photography / fine art

For about 20 years I have been composing fine-art photos in the field of nude / erotic and glamor. "There are many great girls and good-looking models, but the combination with an extraordinary ambience makes up for the charm of this special photo", so my credo.

In this respect, castles, museums and gourmet restaurants are the preferred backgrounds of my nude and glamor shootings. In front of me, there is no backdrop for connecting the Eros of Playmates and other light points with architectural elegance.
Born 1965 in Frankfurt, I live happily married to a wife and children near Augsburg.
For over 25 years I photograph in the genres: concerts, sports and nude.

I am fascinated by photography for a long time. For nude photography, I came very late. Of course I have always been fascinated by the works of Helmut Newton, Günter Blum, etc.

My claim is to emphasize the artistic aspects in erotic photography. Of course, there is always a certain kind of provocation in the Nudety - even today. That's exactly where the appeal lies for me.
Anyone who photographs women with low textile content is constantly confronted with the double standard of many people.

In the meantime, I hardly care, because photography is passionate about being full of enthusiasm and obsession. Since I do not bother me Kleingeister ....
