Hello MMer's!
I just wanted to say there are a lot of smoking hot models and photogs on here, I just don't know which way I should head?

I have been a freelance Artist 20 years and an aspiring model for 3.
Seems both sides of the industry "want" money...
I get models contacting my photog port that Love my work and really want for me to do some shots for them, only they want money... like $75/hr 2hr min!!
Then when I try to boost my port, I get average to good photogs that'll to TFP but I can do that myself. A real good profesional also wants to charge, I paid $350 2 years ago for a portfolio.
Am I always on the wrong side of things?
Be open and honest and tell me if I'm just mediocre in both fields is why, or do I have a stronger edge on one side?

Thanks, Prince Jewell
