Why do some photographers insist on escorts???
I don't understand why photographers should care one way or another. I don't have a problem with models bringing escorts. If it's discussed in advance, and both the model and photographer have no problem with it, then it's a non issue. There are many photographers and models here who don't have a problem with escorts and then there are many who insist that you don't have an escort. It's a matter of communication and trust. Why is this topic so important? So find someone who is of the same mind as you and get to work! Best wishes! Dec 27 06 02:21 am Link Dec 27 06 02:25 am Link Rena wrote: OMG! That's the monster of all threads here! And it wont die! Dec 27 06 02:35 am Link Because now a days, you can't be carefull as there are many sue happy people out there who may want to make a quick buck out of you.

If I agree to a model bringing an escort, well then the model should have no problem with me having an assistant too. I let the escorts know in advance what is expected of them. That is also communication. You know what? I have had no problems with "flakes" or "escorts" or any of these other issues that pop up constantly in the threads. I attribute it to communication skills. They say Liberal Arts degrees are useless? Maybe four years of college communications courses paid off for me after all ...

And to make the occasional beer run, of course. ;^) Dec 27 06 04:16 am Link CantikFotos wrote: I just felt so left out being in the minority who doesn't see this as an issue. Dec 28 06 08:31 pm Link Patrick - I'm curious as to why you would start a thread with the identical title and apparent intent as one that's been going on for quite some time.

Second, I am honestly curious as to why "escorts" are such an important topic of discussion over other matters that photographers may find of interest. Until I joined Model Mayhem, I never knew that the topic of "escorts" was so very important! Am I just not with it? Maybe I missed something? Dec 28 06 10:39 pm Link Nice to see such a new and unique topical thread. Dec 28 06 10:41 pm Link Patrick Walberg wrote: Try reading one of the other threads. Dec 28 06 11:03 pm Link |
