"INSPIRED" rates

Step 1: "How much do you have?"

Step 2: "Give it to me!"

Actually, isn't that the governments new tax form:

1) How much did you make?
2) Send it in.

it went something like this:

Since a model's rates go up as clothes come off, should a photographer's rates go down as clothes come off?

......which is pretty much the way it works.  Many times a photographer has to pay a model to pose nude, and a model has to pay a photographer to pose clothed.

it was supposed to be clever, I think.

The key being 'supposed'. I like to think I can usually spot a dumb post I am typing before I hit send. That has not been the case recently. wink
