Is this considered a proper way
To introduce yourself to a model? Awesome port!! You have a very beautiful and sexy look. Your smile is awesome and you have a very sexy body. If youwould be interested in shooting sometime, please email me or call me anytme. Hope that you are having a great day and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks, I realized when I looked at it that no one had really ever addressed me like that, but then realized that for many 'photographers' this might be a standard introduction...what do ya'll think? Feb 19 06 08:32 pm Link Kind of tells you where their head is at, doesn't it? It would seem to be more appropriate to mention, for example, something about the type of photos desired, terms of the offer... etc. But then you almost certainly already knew that. Feb 19 06 08:36 pm Link Does this mean I have actually been GWC'ed? lol. OOOOOOOh, do you think I should out him/her? lmao....j/k. Feb 19 06 08:37 pm Link Awesome port!!

Thanks, Well my little honeyliscious sexy blonde bombshell he obviously thinks you are 'it' - or else he's tired of writing the same old thing to all and opted for a variant!

Feb 19 06 08:39 pm Link prb wrote: Well you are quite the well equipped one yourself my old photographer friend. Feb 19 06 08:41 pm Link Usually when I introduce myself of a model, I tell them "Hi You have a great look, would you be interested in working with me, please go to "insert webaddresshere" to see samples of my work. Thank you...." simple, not over the top, and non suggestive of any thing! Feb 19 06 08:42 pm Link Lapis wrote: I'd say it's borderline. Perhaps it is a sign of someone who either lacks experience or social polish. It sounds more like an invitation to hang out than to work. Feb 19 06 08:44 pm Link I don't see anything wrong with that, he's(she?) is complimenting your sexiness! If it was followed by, "I want some of your sex(iness) ontop of me"... well then, yes way inappropriate. Feb 19 06 08:45 pm Link Lapis wrote: You got that out of my inbox!! J/k but that's how a lot of my mail looks. Feb 19 06 08:49 pm Link Lillith Leda wrote: Maybe, they got too tired to type out the extra sentence? Feb 19 06 08:51 pm Link Lapis wrote: Among the socially retarded, yes. Feb 19 06 08:53 pm Link I usually send a message with "Shoot" in the subject line and "? -Don" in the message. Is that OK? -D Feb 19 06 09:05 pm Link Lillith Leda wrote: Only if he doesn't include a picture of himself. Lapis wrote: Personally, I'd write to you and say: Feb 19 06 09:08 pm Link I was thinking of introducing myself to some models saying, "I'm littler than you, so if you don't like the pictures, you can always beat me up." What do you think? Feb 19 06 09:09 pm Link I see models saying more inane things to each other around here everyday. Feb 19 06 09:10 pm Link Hmmm. It seems a little unprofessional to me, but its hard to tell since there is no inflection in text. I've always been approached quite tentatively, and I would be put off gaurd by such a bold statement, but I wouldn't necesarily avoid an opportunity based soley on that. What do your instincts tell you? Feb 19 06 09:11 pm Link i don't think there's anything innapropriate in that approach.....i just don't understand why someone would think that it would work..... it seems to me a cut and paste intro that is probably sent to all the models he finds attractive.... but yes, my dear, you have been GWCed!

LMAO...good to see you here! So, do you want my e-mail address? All answers and correspondences will be kept strictly confidential......(I will at least not mention your name...lol) Feb 19 06 09:34 pm Link Melvin Moten Jr wrote: Oh man! I have been thinking about you the last few days....just did a really *pornographic* shoot....reminded me of the good old days, but if you are going to get snippy in my thread just because I didn't like the way you introduced yourself to me then I will just have to go and bitchslap visions of excess....

Feb 19 06 09:40 pm Link Lapis, What is with posting my email? Geez, not very cool. Well could be worse. That one I actually used a dictionary and did not send along a special picture of myself. Hey, I am no english major, Give a dirty dog a break. Feb 19 06 09:41 pm Link Jack D Trute wrote: Samual Jackson called...he wants his line back!

I was KIDDING about outing him, as it was almost as if a stereotype landed in my inbox....it would be more out of line for me to mention this persons name than it was for them to send me an extremely complimentary (if totally unprofessional) e-mail.

Been here since the beginning and just realized some folks that have been here for a month have more posts than me. Need to turn this into an Audrey-like thread.
