9 out of 10 were creepy?!?!
I worked with a model this past weekend, and she mentioned that 9 out of 10 photographers she has worked with were "creepy", meaning that they had an underlying intention of having sex with her (I was the 1 by the way, not any of the 9). I was shocked to hear that ratio! What does anyone else think? Maybe she's not thoroughly checking her references? Or maybe she just has the dumb luck of attracting creeps? Dec 22 06 03:37 pm Link Work harder, we'll get to 100% yet.. Dec 22 06 03:38 pm Link I agree with Rowland, you really need to work on your creepiness skills. Sure, it's not easy, but with hard work and dedication I think you have what it takes to make it to true creepiness status. Eye of the Tiger, baby! Dec 22 06 03:41 pm Link I would say that .... 1 in 10 for me is creepy by that description. Am I working with the wrong people?? Why don't these photographers I work with put out the "I want to have sex with you" vibe? I must not be bootylicious enough.

Dec 22 06 03:44 pm Link Any interaction between adult males and adult females of post-puberty age is going to have some level of sexual tension, unless maybe the male is unconscious. Even in situations where there really shouldn't be any, there will be still a spark waiting to be ignited. Can you imagine how boring photos could be, without some of that? (I have often wondered how a guy who is 100% confirmed gay can do a sexy shot of a woman and infuse it will real tension.) But having the feelings floating around doesn't mean that anything real will happen. (The escort will see to that, LOL!) Dec 22 06 03:45 pm Link i've only worked with one creep. It was march 2006 and am still waiting on my cd  needless to say his refrences were good minus no one ever got their cd ...Dec 22 06 03:48 pm Link i barely have the energy to hit the shutter release after setting up the shoot, mua,assistant, travel etc,much less the intention of having sex with any of my models, she may be working with the wrong people. Dec 22 06 03:50 pm Link Remember,,photogs are the Anti-Christ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Merry Christmas Dec 22 06 03:50 pm Link W.G. Rowland wrote: LOL, jokingly I told her I must not have been trying hard enough. Dec 22 06 03:50 pm Link Sounds to me like she doesn't learn from past experience. Dec 22 06 03:52 pm Link Did she have the proper credentials to distinguish creepiness from apathy? Dec 22 06 03:53 pm Link Bondo Photo wrote: increase your skills... Dec 22 06 03:55 pm Link I wonder if she told the same story to the other 9 photographers she shot with. And will the OP be included with the creeps when she shoots with the next photographer. Dec 22 06 03:55 pm Link I have worked with some very good looking models and every one seems to happy about working with me . Just focused more on the shot i'm taking insted of how hot the model looks . Dec 22 06 03:58 pm Link Jessalyn wrote: hah.. same here.. my booty is not bootyfull. Or whatever kids these days says it! Dec 22 06 04:10 pm Link My opinion, she's either- (A) an idiot for not checking references, credentials, website, and other models who have worked with him. (B) extremely unlucky, if these are all professional photographers she's dealing with. (C) delusional, thinking everyone wants her (D) liar (E) so unbelievably and incredibly beautiful that it could be true Dec 22 06 04:35 pm Link Um, maybe she likes the creepy ones, and was casually insulting you for being too nice. Dec 22 06 04:38 pm Link Class Act Photography wrote: We like the plain Janes too Dec 22 06 04:40 pm Link As with a few people, maybe she likes to draw attention to herself by increasing the drama in her life. Iâve hear that children that donât get attention for being good will act out poorly to get any attention. Myself, I would have nodded and moved past her comment. Dec 22 06 04:43 pm Link I usually wear a pair of jeans with the zipper ripped out when shooting. And of course, I always go with an unfurnished basement. That usually creeps 'em out post haste. If that doesn't work I change into a pair of leather chaps. *Just* leather chaps. Dec 22 06 04:43 pm Link Sexual tension is a great stimulus for creativity! I suspect there was just a lot of playful, flirting banter going on just to pass the time between shots. I also think that sometimes the love of the photographic process accidently and erroneously crosses the line and transfers to the people involved. To maintain the professional demeanor we have to be on constant vigilence lest we fall into depravity  Dec 22 06 04:44 pm Link Cecil Sharps wrote: sounds like it to me, and that spells trouble.

A man and a woman can shoot a model butt naked and not have any sexual desires. I think that it's just the model looking for this. I mean come on, look at the pattern here. Dec 22 06 04:46 pm Link Perhaps she's the one thats attracted to 9 out of 10 photogs. Due in part because she is not advanced upon, the photogs become 'creepy'?

Dec 22 06 05:16 pm Link judging by the threads i see around MM: best ass on MM best breast on MM models who sleep with photograhers etc. I say she is about right.

Dec 22 06 06:48 pm Link Bondo Photo wrote: I think maybe she's shot with Hyunh 9 times before you. Also, we all know that models are not very good with math or ratios so I take that statement with a grain of salt Dec 22 06 06:50 pm Link I hear paranoid people think 10 out of 10 people are trying to get them.

I thought I would get slapped if I put my hand on a certain 'asset' of a female model and everyone at the shoots going "Do it!" Why is a photpgher creepy just because he's showing he likes what hes shooting? *confused* Dec 22 06 07:00 pm Link Lee Frederic wrote: Hey that wasn't a photo shoot. It was the set of the Jodie Foster film "The Accused." And that WAS creepy lol. Dec 22 06 07:04 pm Link |
