ohhhh, like say they wanna do the shoot but dont turn up in the end? :bigeyes:
haha, that's the most common one ....
others include, - last minute "falling sick" excuse, coming in about 1 or 2 hours late coz no transport, lost mobile phone no and couldnt find the place, coming in still smelling like just having beer for breakfast, bringing unannounced boyfriends/best friends/sisters, etc to shoot, etc .... :dunno:

man, i feel pressurised now! hehe. i guess both must be responsible in their roles..
 

That's a good list, I've encoutered so many of those before...tsk tsk.

yes i refer to both sides, the best is meet up b4 a shhot, to discuss, and to see the sincerity of both sides.
 

my, so many emergence of new faces in cs recently (myself included). maybe its the school holidays coming up hehe.

What I don't understand is why are there so many maladies the night before or the morning of the shoot. More hand phone losts during this period too.

I guess the problem lies with expectations. If and when you have one party not series, taking a "play play" approach to the shoot, while the other party is serious, problem is probably the only obvious outcome.

maybe due to the stress? when encounter the great portraits master like you?? ;p

:bsmilie: :bsmilie: :bsmilie:
 

Thank God I never encountered such incidents before. That suck doesn't it?

Looks like we ought to be careful and more choosy in picking models.
 

Actually, most of the time, you won't know until the day of the shoot itself, and sometimes, all the care in picking and choosing doens't help such play-outs.

Then looks like it wasn't so bad for me yet. I encountered once a model who is slightly late for shoot. And another time, a very popular model in CS was late for an hour. Ok lah, I just went to a nearby Mc Donalds for breakfast while waiting. :)
 

okok you people are intimidating me. well i guess.. for me, i don't want to make empty promises ya. i'd rather come out straight and say i'm not free to do a particular shoot in advance. especially if it's things like studio, where the photog has to book the studio, mua, etc. perhaps it's the influx of talents/new faces that has created such doubts that "oh we want to playplay for fun" and all, but really, there are some of us that are really keen on expanding our portfolio, or do like being in front of the camera.

Hey relax, there are lots of nice friendly photographers out there. As long as you are nice to work with and have what it takes to be a model, many out there will still like to work with you. :)
 

haha, hopefully :) thanks to all anyway! ^^ comments, PMs, emails all appreciated! :thumbsup:
 

Not all pretty gals can be models. Not all models need to be pretty. But models cannot be too short.
For photographic purpose, the gal has to be reasonably good looking for the camera.

If you are looking to be a print ad model, simple well taken photographs would suffice. but for catwalks and in-person-promotion 'models' a proper portfolio is preferred.

well i saw most models including local racequeen and somehow most of them don't look pretty..
 

haha i kind of agree. there aren't many singaporean girls who have that x-factor, besides a standard kind of pretty face. some racequeens don't really appeal to me as well, even with the thick layers of makeup. well, i guess it boils down to individual taste and preference, some photogs in CS like their look :sweat:
