I just returned home from a photo shoot, and have to post a compliment to two great MM models, Jessalyn_54, Mayhem #169688 and Erin Knight, Mayhem #134502.

These ladies showed up on time and ready to work.  They were both hard working, professional, and a real pleasure to work with.  I'm looking forward to working with them again in the future.

To the other five models who either gave me e-mail confirmations or phone confirmations a couple of days before the photo shoot, then pulled a no show, no call, refuse to answer the phone on Saturday, "Ladies, you missed out on a great photo shoot and the loss is all yours."

nice to see the good ones get some credit for a change.

I've been praising Jessie for a couple of months now. Dammit, she shows up. Even drove through a monsoon once, hydroplaning along the way, to shoot with me. The result is my avatar photo.

Thank you for being positive about models. It is nice. And, it proves that there are many good and even great ones out there with dedication to their craft. They understand it is work as well as fun.

Well, if our format is "two great models"  - After a summer of a shooting drought, I shot twice recently.  Both models were exceptional - smart - and true Co-Creators of many of the shots I have taken.

Raverchic #40800 has been a joy - with a range from Vintage (my current Avatar), Pinups, to "Way beyond creepy".  Has made it thru illness, and gotten the shots, even  when there was only bodypaint between her and the 45 degree air. 

Nyxvalentine #61165 is a very remarkable young woman - Exceptionally smart and artistic.  On time - great communications - and always fun to work with - (Even in trying locations and evil cold nights)  Her input always adds more to my images.

I really feel blessed, all the time, to find people with these qualities to work with.

double post monster - Sorry

Now I'm getting concerned for the well being of one of the no-show models.  I've learned from a couple of other people that she had been looking forward to our photo shoot yesterday, but has suddenly stopped responding to everyone within the last few days.  I hope that no misfortune has occurred to her.

The model I was worried about in the above post just contacted me today.  She was in a bad car wreck right after my last contact with her.  She suffered some  injuries, including a concussion, dislocated shoulder and broken wrist.  She's wearing an arm cast right now, but is ready to work once she's out of the cast. :-)

I'm just glad that her injuries were not more serious.  Just goes to prove that sometimes there are real reasons for no-shows.

thanks for the love guys

Nice to see someone saying positive things... there really are some very good and very reliable models out there, if one chooses carefully.
