Photographers' Pet Peeves
We do not like models who flakes. We do not like models who show up late. We do not like models who show up to the studio looking like crap. We do not like models who show up to the studio with bags under the eyes from a long night of partying with her girls. Models... why do you think that you can come to our studio looking the way you look and acting the way you act and get away with it ? Is it because you think we actually will let you get away with it ? Dec 16 06 11:37 pm Link Actually, I like it when a model shows up looking ragged, and then gets into wardrobe, makeup, and has her hair done and looks totally different.... The process always astounds me. Dec 16 06 11:39 pm Link Because some people think we're pretty. No really, it's just unprofessional. Models don't do that at their day job, so why do it at a photoshoot. It's a job too. A fun, creative job, but it's still a job that needs to get done. Dec 16 06 11:40 pm Link Do not like Models who do not show at all Do not like models who think they are the best Do not like models who are late And do not like models who do not trust me after they have talked to other models Dec 16 06 11:40 pm Link Heberlig Photography wrote: Was the last line supposed to be sarcastic?

I'll pretend to be a nice person and assume he was sarcastic. Dec 16 06 11:46 pm Link Smokers Dec 16 06 11:46 pm Link No you could have a model contact other models and ask them about you and get a A Plus from the other ones and back out cause they say I do not trust you. Dec 16 06 11:47 pm Link models are gossip mongers. they tend to have a lot of dramas. i used to work for danni.com (danni's hard drive ) as a photographer. i was shooting a lot of adult models and strippers for the web site. one day, this chick came in to the studio. she was in a really bad mood. i'm not going to mention any names, but she is a porn star. she got into a fight with her bf that night, and she was in the man hating mode. so i came to the dressing room to talk to her about the shoot, and check up with the makeup artist. this girl started to go on her tirade about men and why she hates us. blah blah blah. i didn't think much of it. maybe after the make up is done, her mood will change once we got her to the studio. nope. i was wrong. she refused to cooperate with me. i didn't know what to do. so i talked to my boss and she was sent home. we basically told her that we don't need her for today. of course, she didn't get paid. models... leave your drama home. we don't want to know what your man did. we don't care.

Dec 16 06 11:53 pm Link if the models don't trust me... they don't have to contact me. i got another job that pays me well. photography is something i do on the side anyway. i don't rely on it to make a living.

Dec 17 06 12:36 am Link potential models who show up with an unannounced boyfriend as escort 90 minutes late with there cell switched off. don''t let that car door hit you in the ass doing your u turn on your way home.
