Is her nudity a matter of national security? LOL. I'd say that's over-reacting!

Wow!!!

I agree, a bit on the panic button it seems.   At least it is out there so no one will waste their time, yes. smile  Hard to imagine one going through life all worked up such as that though.  Takes all kinds I suppose.

Nude or otherwise, I'd like to thank that model for her warning to *not* work with her. Holy crap! Nothing good could come of that...

Does she look young?
My guess is she is underage and is used to myspace. On myspace it is a common practice for minors to state their age as any number over 18. This is because of pedos using the age search function to look for minors.She probably got hit on by a lot of pedos when she used her real age on myspace.

Phone: FBI, Agent Johnson.
Model: Yes, I'm a model and I'd like to report a major crime. I was asked to pose nude.
FBI: ....and?
Model: I don't do nudes. I want them investigated, and arrested, and locked up for 1,000 years. They are icky evil perverts, and I want them poonished, now now now.
FBI: Uh....you do realize prank calling the Feds is a crime?
Model: I'm serious! Now get off your lazy donut eating butts and do something! Arrest this pervert! I want him deaded!
FBI: *Click*



Kinda how I see that convo going.  The Feds have more important things to worry about than this I think.

If she's 15 or 16, I will slam my pecker in the sliding glass door. Trust me, this chick isn't under 18. I'd show you, but I've closed out the window and don't feel like trying to her again.

That is hilarious!  tongue   ROFLMAO!   

I called the FBI when my website was hacked.  Even though I was upset about it, there has to be at least $5,000 in damages before they will even take it up.  It was a very good lesson to learn!

I only see one model commenting in here, so I'll have to speak on behalf of 3 models who have shared their e-mails with me.  If anyone recalls some of the stupid e-mails I posted about models wanting me to hire them, give them all images etc. etc, here is the other side.

Even with all that overkill on the no nudes, bet that more than half her inquiries are for nude work.  Like it's the "photographers" (as opposed to real photographers) that make these statements happen.  I would see that as a statement of frustration rather than arrogance.

A "photographer" is a GWC whose main intention is to get the model nekkie. 

But no, Mr GWC, you don't qualify in this group cause you have a sense of humor.  smile

So honestly, rather than plasting this model for a statement like that, why not consider all options and see if maybe you should pity her for what she's had to endure in trying to get non-nude work?

Worth considering, I hope.

I'm sorry, but I am a female photographer who doesn't have any requirements for nudity to shoot with someone, and something worded that strongly would NOT make me feel sorry for her.

It would make me want to stay as far away from her as possible. She just doesn't sound like someone who would be fun to shoot. Even from a 'tfp' standpoint, it is crucial to me that i feel that I will 'click' with the model and they and I will have fun...If I am paying someone, there is no way in HELL I would put up with an attitude like that.

And, with that in her profile, it sure as hell doesn't sound like she has an idea in her head to pay ME to shoot what SHE wants to shoot.

In Venezuella they actually are a matter of national importance.  Pretty much any and all vanity surgery is covered by state medical insurance.  Boob job, tummy tuck, electrolysis...If it makes women look "better" the government will pay for it!

Meanwhile, I'm still paying off a three-day hospital stay for pneumonia from 1999.  PA Health and Welfare decided the lung catheter was an "elective procedure."

You know guys, this model might have been kidding.  Perhaps she thought by making such an outlandish statement, it would be apparent that she was merely exaggerating (though, it might have been a good idea on her part to make it completely obvious that she was joking) .  Just a thought smile

i sorta feel like the angy uncle who would always bluster "THIS WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED IN J EDGAR HOOVER'S FBI!!"

also, this sort of reminds me of the recording that was circulating the internet a while back of the woman who called 911 when Burger King got her cheeseburger orders wrong twice in a row.
that's some good perspective there, people.

We should all ask her to pose nude. Then when she reports all of us to the FBI, she may get on the FBI's "Ten Most Stupid People" list.

She like TOTALLY no-showed me. So there I was with my MUA (Cathy, our head waitress who is like totally awesome with eyeshadow) and my camera and my light and we waited and waited and she DIDNT EVEN CALL TO TELL US SHE WAS LATE. In fact she still hasnt showed up yet but I am going to give that b*ch another hour and file a missing persons report with the FBI or something.

By the way I get those threats about calling the FBI all the time. I guess its all the amature models who want to work with me and they always are like "I am GONNA tell the FBI you wanted me to pose g/g with the statue of blind JUSTICE on the front of the DOJ headquarters in DC"   And I get a lot of those "NO NUDES" kinda things from all the hollywood starlets I work with. Like I was shooting with Kirsten Dunst the other day and asked her to take her top off and she was like "let me call my agent" and I was like "baby you can call spiderman, as long as you get that top off, heh heh" and would you belive that childish little brat LEFT MY SHOOT? I mean she just WALKED OFF. If I hadnt had a wireless camera in the changing room I would have totally gotten no shots of her at all!!!!

Models just arent up to the standards that they used to be. sad
