Try to get on the credits as photographer and a letter of acknowledgement from the producer that they thank you for granting them to use that photo of your model for the Tyler Banks show on date, location, segment about...

I'm definitely going to get a rolling credit at the end,  but nobody reads those, so hey.  I hadn't thought of or heard of the letter idea before.  That's great!  I'm talking to the producer on Wednesday, I'll ask him about that.

Thank you, Udo!

Who is Tyra ????

She's Tyra Banks, a supermodel who recently got her own talk show.  Called, unsurprisingly, the Tyra Banks Show.

Aw, c'mon, I've only been taking pictures for six months, I get to be flat-out thrilled!  And brag about it.  Once I'm all uber famous and a total diva, I won't have to brag.

I promise to devote a whole thread to you once I get to take your photo, too!

You know I'm just effing with you, right? Seriously that's cool. I've had a very long sordid weird caffeinated day and now I've long crossed the threshold between silliness and good taste. Tomorrow, decaf I swear! *wink*

Congratulations!  That is awesome and well deserved!!  I hope the show is able to convey the beauty in women in general, and not just high fashion models.  COming from her, it should get a point across.

That said, I don't think I will ever watch that show again.  I'm sure she has her redeeming qualities, but after watching a recent episode and seeing how she degraded her guests, I just couldn't believe it!  I think my biggest problem is it became clear she is not willing to think outside of the box, UNLESS it will benefit her in some way or unless it is dealing with a positive underlying sentiment, such as in this case with the models.  It could have just been a fluke; maybe she was just having a bad day or something, but I think her attitude was inexcusable.  Hopefully it was an isolated incident.

I've gotten a few emails from ladies here who have been on the show.  It doesn't sound like the experience was 100% positive.  I'm hoping the plus models have a good time, anyway.  Fingers crossed for them and all that.  I just think it's outstanding that someone in the spotlight is making a point of showcasing plus models.  In the long run, I think (hope?) that will be what matters.

I think that showcasing plus size models is a very good idea, especially since she is such a successful model.  Like you said, I hope the experience is positive for the models.  It is unfortunate that talk shows have such a following because when push comes to shove, their hosts usually aren't that upstanding of people.  Regardless, you model and photograph is wonderful and I hope the show is beneficial to you both!!
