Perhaps there is another thread like this, if so please direct me but I am curious if you models would like to see what the photograper looks like before you do a shoot? Especially if the photographer is a man. And would you turn down a shoot just because of what the photograper looked like? I see there is a thread about showing your face (the photographer) and was just curious about this.

I see there is a thread about showing your face (the photographer) and was just curious about this. Dude are you ugly? Do you want models to like you as more then a photographer? When was the last time you had a meeting with a model, face to face before shooting? Have you had a lot of cancellations after the model sees your face? Everyone cares what people look like. It just matters to what degree. The guy that works at BMW is an UGLY guy, but he knows how to fix cars. Bob Carlos Clarke was not attractive, but he was a brilliant photographer. If you want a date, get out more. If you want to date a model, start off with being nice, getting them images that they like and go from there. If you want to know just for curiosity, read the previous 400 trillion posts about this topic on this site and every other site. No worries man, just be a damn good cocky photographer and you will attract someone you are attracted to. Oh and learn how to spell photograpHer if you want to use that title.

If it's a case of identifying a person you don't know....no problem.....other than that I don't see any difference what a photographer looks like.....our place is behind the camera....yours is in front......your looks count....ours don't......of course there are the "beautiful people" who can only be seen in the company of other "beautiful people"......in which case I wouldn't want to shoot you anyway.....too many probems with attitudes....been there, done it and forget it. If I had to worry about my looks....I'd be posting as a model.

BUT...William is correct. Does it matter what the model thinks of you? The model is the one who's supposed to look good, not the photographer. To answer your question, I cannot speak for everyone, but I personally don't really care what the photographer looks like. He just has to be able to take pictures that I'll like and he HAS to be fun to work with.

I'd like to say I don't care or judge based on a picture but I'd be lying. I only ask to see a photo if I need to find someone I'm meeting with but I do make a judgment when I see a photo or a photographer in person. I judge how professional they are by their clothes, the way they carry themselves, and grooming. I judge how good or what style our photos may be by their personal style. And lastly I judge them personally, some guys just look like creepy serial killer rapists, I'm sorry, I know it's wrong but I do it, I judge them. If they do look creepy I like to talk to them a lot before we shoot, because if I feel uncomfortable it doesn't help either one of us.

Well, if you could see my face right now, you'd notice marty feldman eyes doing multiple 360 degree loop dee loops. Sheesh. How utterly silly.

I see there is a thread about showing your face (the photographer) and was just curious about this. A photographer's appearance is not of any great importance to me; however, out of curiosity, I like to know what people look like, especially if I have communicated with them for some time in on-line forums and so on. However, that is in no way related to whether or not I would work with them. When I speak to photographers on the telephone, I do admit to feeling happier to work with the ones who come across as articulate and well mannered, as opposed to those who have difficulty making a coherent sentence.

It helps to match a name to a face. But it isn't completely necessary.
