Are Other Fellas on MM Just Trying to Hook Up?
Generally, I don't think it's a problem, but it's just that it kinda ruins it for the rest of us who are really trying to network. Personally, I would hate for the ladies up in here to think I have some ulterior motive just because some of the other guys do. Hey, I'm not saying I'm a perfect Angel - I get happy when a beautiful lady corresponds with me, too; we all have our moments, but it's different if it happens as a result of meeting up... to work/collaborate and the like. Dudes, if that's your main intention, then I think the ladies are on to all of you, man. Thoughts? Jul 02 06 04:40 pm Link Methinks thou doth protest too much. Jul 02 06 04:47 pm Link I am trying to sleep with as many photographers as I can, so that their talents can rub off on me! Jul 02 06 04:47 pm Link Lexi Evans wrote: That's what we're calling it now? Talent? Jul 02 06 04:49 pm Link Some are talented and some are not. You can apply different meanings I suppose! Jul 02 06 04:52 pm Link I agree alot of guys might be on here trying to get hooked up but at the same time trying to get work. But that does ruin it for males on here that are trying to network. Like for example I can't find any female models to work with me on a shoot. Most dont respond to any messages or comments I send. I guess I have to show that I'm not trying to get in the pants.. . lol.

And I woud love to collaborate and shoot something sexy with a girl without her having to think I'm being shady, u know? It's about the work - a lot more fun, granted but it's work FIRST. Jul 02 06 05:06 pm Link I have no desire to date anyone in this industry...It's all about business for me. Jul 02 06 05:07 pm Link Lexi Evans wrote: Oh Oh!! Think I better think twice about friday now!! What say ye Lexi? Jul 02 06 05:08 pm Link I've never even made out with a MM model. OK, once. Jul 02 06 05:09 pm Link The models are hip to my game and the MUAs want a kit fee -at least- for the date. Jul 02 06 05:27 pm Link This may sound depressing, but I have yet to sleep with a model. However, I will be happy to have some of my talent rub off on Lexi if she'll come to Philly. Jul 02 06 05:31 pm Link Help! I have a guy with ulterior motives on my friends list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jul 02 06 05:47 pm Link ... Jul 02 06 05:48 pm Link no hook-ups here, my wife would not like that... I love her and my two kids too much to F@#k it up over a hot 21 year old that I am shooting man she is hot... she is in my port Jul 02 06 05:48 pm Link Lexi Evans wrote: Well Lexi come to FL and I'll rub one off on ya! (roflmao!) Jul 02 06 05:52 pm Link Do I get any points for harmless flirting? LOL. Jul 02 06 05:55 pm Link I confess to getting a warm pleasant tingly sensation when I look at the new B&H Photo equipment catalog and all the latest studio equipment ... does that count? Jul 02 06 05:59 pm Link i am here just to become a doctor not planning to marry a nurse!!!! Jul 02 06 06:05 pm Link Hmmmmm......I came on this site to learn more and improve my skills (Photography, of course!) not to try and hook up with a model. I sorta thought that was the purpose of this place! I have seen so much work on here that I admire, this place is an inspiration, and not a dating site. Just my opinion, of course!! Jul 02 06 06:10 pm Link I've only worked once with a model but have talked to many and I would hope that I'm not sending any vibes that say I'm looking for anything more than shoot. I'm here to learn and to build up my port, and I'm very serious about my work. I didn't invest in all my gear to use it to get women. I did it because one day I hope to be a professional photographer. When I talk to potential models I want them to be at ease with me, I want them to be as comfortable as possible so the shoot goes off fine. I would hope that models, especially experienced models can tell if a photog is after more than just photos. I think the problem could come from the younger models just getting into the business not understanding certain things. Not to say there aren't photgs out there who use photography to get with women. To them I say get out of the business because your screwing it up for the pros. Jul 02 06 06:19 pm Link By the way, photogs are not the only ones here on blast. U ever notice some of the male models up in here with ONLY WOMEN friends/tags? Hmmmmmm....... lol Jul 02 06 06:43 pm Link (bump) Jul 02 06 07:26 pm Link |
