Models be careful with pretending photographers
I have met one for a coffee and he wanted to shoot with me, emailed me some great pics he shot. Then I saw on his page here on MM a picture of a very famous photographer, I told him but he tried to argue that it was his. All the pictures he showed me he had stolen as well. Iam sure its not the only case- there are some bastards trying to get your money for bad work or get in your pants.

Jun 10 06 12:18 am Link speak softly and carry a huge prior Marine boyfriend  ... oh yeah, and always get references. Nemi Jun 10 06 12:21 am Link haha, you are funny. But everyone is right, one can never be too careful.. Nemesis73 wrote: Jun 10 06 12:33 am Link damn, I guess I should take the herb ritts shots out of my port. Jun 10 06 01:05 am Link This is why I include a photo of myself in my port. No one can fake being this ugly. Jun 10 06 01:12 am Link John Jebbia wrote: Correction.

Jun 10 06 02:53 am Link ... and this is what we call the classic case of the GWC... Jun 10 06 03:06 am Link Over 10 years ago I worked for another photograher and we collaborated on shoots. All the images I captured were his company property due to the contract I signed (I was "green" and looking for experience). My point is there is a side to every story. What I don't understand is why do some models think just because a photographer wants to photograph you, they're trying to "Get in your pants"??? I know there are bad apples in every bunch but some of us are hard working sweet apples. "No matter the trophies and championships...doesn't change the fact that today I have to practice"...Tiger Woods Jun 10 06 03:11 am Link also deons't change the fact that not every photogrpaher is looking to make you a star either. If youa rne't a profesional photographer, JUst say so, sure some models won't shootwiht you, but many will if your not trying torazzle dazzlethem..........
