I prefer to leave the work of finding a model to an agency. They magically send a half dozen people that are as perfect as each other for the job and the client picks a couple and away we go.

Do you really think camera club girls have experience is more what I am saying. Hell we cast on craigslist. You would actually be very surprised whom you can find that is very usable from craigslist or MM.On Mon, Dec 28, 2015 at 8:47 PM, Randy Little <randyslittle@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Yes but a whole lot or them are professional models. We use it all the time for Lancome corporate stuff. You can even search by agency repped.On Mon, Dec 28, 2015 at 7:21 PM, Jan Faul <jan@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Bear in mind that most “models” on Model Mayhem are not professionals, do not work like professionals, and yet will do things like stand on their heads and blow bananas out of their asses. They have mostly had so much smoke blown at them by the aforementioned shooters, that they believe fame to be just around the corner.Now that we guys are all shooters, any woman who seemingly believes herself to look ’special’, is now a model.A friend at Canon tells me they have sold 5+ million 5D’s. I’m sure fewer than 50k were bought by pro’s, so…. wannabe’s now populate the photo world.On Dec 28, 2015, at 7:05 PM, Randy Little <randyslittle@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Yeah you can just go to http://www.modelmayhem.com/ and get all kinds of models tfp or cheap pay. IF you are going to a camera club to get nude models then you are doing it wrong.On Mon, Dec 28, 2015 at 6:04 PM, Mark Harris <gsphotoguy@xxxxxxx> wrote:And then they wonder why they can’t book other models - SMH! What they don’t seem to understand is that the models all talk to each other and exchange information about people like that.MarkOn Dec 28, 2015, at 10:43 AM, Jan Faul <jan@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:I know a GWC who is supposedly in the know and he uses his camera to get in the presence of a nude model and then shoots pictures with no film in the camera. He hasn’t even bothered to upgrade to digital.
