wow ppl should relax a little. it was sposed to be funny. i found it posted (without due credit) on my friends blog, who is also a photographer. smile once in a while and not take everything sooo seriously. this is the blog on myspace where i found it and thought it was funny. look for yourself. http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea … 8f79c9445b Jun 21 06 01:52 pm Link bah Jun 21 06 01:58 pm Link Man, can't wait to hear some of the rip-you-aparts that come from photogs on some of these comments. Running for the JiffyPop. Jun 21 06 01:59 pm Link took the bait. I hang my head in shame. Jun 21 06 02:02 pm Link oops Jun 21 06 02:09 pm Link wow... someone's been burned. but you forgot one... billy badass: he says all the right things, shoots all the right frames, is timely with the product, clients, tears, amazing work...extremely profesh. Jun 21 06 02:11 pm Link wow. youve covered just about covered every stereotype. it just goes to show that a model has to be more careful. what kind of modelling you want to concentrate on will dictate the type of pictures you need as well as the photographer whose style suits your needs. you have to do your research. why does a photographer travel across the country , rent a motel room with sheets for backdrops, and shoot tfcd with on pop-up flash on camera, and sign released for snapshops that will not be usefull for anything. kinda scary. not everyone whos has a camera is a photographer. foremost it should be treated as a business. be careful and play safe Jun 21 06 02:14 pm Link Please make sure to give the origniating author credit It is a cute article posted on one of the Other Talent Sources.

Jun 21 06 02:14 pm Link Credible or not, it was highly amusing, and a good read. Jun 21 06 02:15 pm Link Yeah yeah but what about the flakey models that say 'I'd love to shoot with you' blah blah blah, you book the studio time, put the time aside then the air heads dont show.... Got a list for those girls huh huh biotch? I've never let a TFCD down. MAN You full of it! Jun 21 06 02:44 pm Link Even with out the credits I just had to read the topic and knew exactly where that came from...yes, we know who is the author of it and in my book he will never be "credible" but that is my own opinion. Interesting to note that for some of us who used to be in his forum (glad I am not there no more...and yes he throw me out and others for telling the truth to the talent) we know exactly why he did that, it was to make fun of certain photographers who did not believe on his concepts, but he wanted his "Talent" to shoot with GWC's (cuz it is free)...as you see the last one in the list...to me the guy will always be a joke, again, that is my opinion. Some stuff may make sense, but some are just plain bad taste...time will tell...time will tell... XP Jun 21 06 03:04 pm Link YEAH!! Now we even have Plagiarism here!!! WOOO HOOO What a wonderful way to make yourself look like an ASS~!!!! MM is FUN!!! Jun 21 06 03:08 pm Link ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Jun 21 06 03:10 pm Link Doug Swinskey wrote: ~SLAP~ WAKE UP!!!

Have you ever tried laying that seamless paper on top of your mattress? It always wrinkles and tears at the pressure points. When I wake up in the morning it's no longer uasable for a photo shoot, and it's too stiff for toilet paper! I'll stick with sheets Jun 21 06 05:15 pm Link Richard Wheelock wrote: As toilet paper?
