Advice To Models

This thread is not meant to be anything other than informative.

Models, photographers talk, simply remember that.

When you flake on a shoot in any way you could be burning future bridges before you reach them.

I have not been burned lately but others have and believe me word does get around.

Just something to think about.

ummm there is no need to be rude he was most likely joking as this topic has been covered more than enough times already.

I think the models KNOW that they shouldn't burn bridges and the good ones usually are very good and have valid excuses when valid problems occur..

I must admit to thinking If I was a model who did not give a toss about letting a photographer know whether she is going to a shoot or not then I don't think she would give a flying toss to what you have written it just sparks animosity with models that ARE genuine and on time and hard working...

maybe think about that...and read some other threads and possibly also get this moved from a general forum into the models matter cause lets face it you are not touching on the fact that sopmetimes photographers can be just as bad.. and "I" personally have been burned a few times...

cheers and peace!!

Now, now. We know what it is. And we knew what you meant by 'advise' but seriously. They're two different words.

*yawn*

And by the way, the models taking the time to read and post probably aren't the ones flaking on shoots.

Just a thought.
