Dec 06 06 06:43 pm Link He used you for a shoot....it happens all the time on here by GWC's. I would keep contacting him. why let him rest....email him once a day asking to see your photos.....that's what I would do. I understand if he is running behind and he explains it to you....but ignoring you is just uncalled for....let him have it....lol Dec 06 06 06:44 pm Link lmao..gawd.were the pics THAT bad??

If you are in this business, then you are bound to meet many people. So there will be a few who might just "drop off the face of the Earth" for whatever reason. I know it's hard, but try not to take it personally. Dec 06 06 07:28 pm Link I just took a look at your portfolio Jeralyn. If this guy took pictures of you and they are so bad he won't show them then he is a damn fool! You're beautiful and talented and I hope you visit the East Coast soon! Dec 06 06 09:33 pm Link He could be dead. It happens, ya know... Dec 06 06 09:36 pm Link Move to the east coast. We are GWC-free! Dec 07 06 01:41 am Link I have said (jokingly) to several beautiful models that they present me with a thorny problem -- if I don't come back with terrific pictures of such a lovely girl, EVERYONE will know whose fault it is. But there is a grain of truth in my joke -- Photogs who produce crap on a given assignment are sometimes too ashamed to confront the results in a responsible way. Dec 07 06 01:48 am Link Did you say hey, lets shoot again? Dec 07 06 01:51 am Link Check the last activity date on his profile. If it's recent, yeah, like someone else here said, start messaging him A LOT. If he's blocked you here, send him email, too. If you have his phone number, call him. Do it until he either lets you know what's going on or ponies up some images. Much longer than 6 months and the images will be useless to you probably anyway... Dec 08 06 04:23 pm Link Shoot more pictures and make them hotter.

That way, he will respond or run the risk of others seeing that he doesn't return images. Dec 08 06 04:49 pm Link JERALYN wrote: Forget about him. He probably didn't even have a card (or film) in his camera. Dec 08 06 04:53 pm Link I wouldn't lose sleep over it. Just had look at some of the photos in your PF and I am very impressed with your beauty, however some images are OOF and/or blown + motion blurred. Re-shoot with another photog and never look back! John Dec 08 06 04:54 pm Link happens to photographers as well, deliver the photos ,hasta la vista baby it is. Dec 08 06 04:56 pm Link Doug Mackay DMP wrote: Now that's true.

Dec 08 06 09:01 pm Link or in my case i make a disc and coordinating the transfer of the disc never occurs. guess theres no harm to me there as long as the person whom the disc is for isnt out there talking trash about why they dont have the disc yet.
