Bit of an odd phone call today
« on: 25 May 2010, 15:49 »
o just sat at home when my mobile rings don't recognize the number but answer anyway

It was someone looking to have some photos done found my profile on model mayhem / pure storm, asked what they wanted and said they wanted about 4 Glamour/lingerie photos.

This isnt a problem but then they asked if i would do it for free to which i said no, said to look at my website with the prices etc and to drop me a email with some further info if they wanted to go ahead with some photos

Now this was the first time ive ever had a random phone call for some photos, didn't help that the person ringing was foreign and I couldnt really understand them that well :P

I think they thought that they only pay for prints or a cd if they want the photos! well guess we will see if they drop me a email!

I'd have done it on a TFP basis just to bulk up my portfolio.

You turned down shooting glamor/lingerie models  :shocked:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Time for Print/CD.

I.E you do it free and you get to put the stuff in your portfolio and they get to put the stuff in their portfolio. Mutual back scratching and helps both parties to get further paid work hopefully.
