10 Rules For Female Models from Male Photographers

– Stop being snooty! Because there will always be someone better than you with a better attitude.

– Stop talking negative about others. We don’t care how much you hate the
other models and what drama you had with them. We’re your photographers
not your Psychotherapists. Besides, times are wasting when you could be
shooting!

– Stop being a flake. Some photographers use valuable studio time to
shoot you, if you’re not showing up, at least give us a call. It’s
common sense. And yes we’ve heard the “I got in to an accident” excuse a
million times.

– Don’t shoot with a photographer if you’re just doing it for
practice. A lot of the time it’s noticeable when you choose to shoot
with crappy photographers just because you want to feel better about
yourself, and don’t have the confidence to shoot with good ones. If
you’re gonna shoot with someone you don’t like and complain in the end…

then DON’T DO IT!! It’s that simple.

– Chain your testosterone driven boyfriend on a leash. While it’s
totally understandable that you want to bring him for protection, an
overzealous bf is just a headache and a half. We have TV dramas for that
kind of stuff.

– Don’t just stand there like a stick! No explanation needed for this one.

– Don’t move around too much too!

– Have patience with your photos. Even if it’s digital, it takes time
to edit these images. Especially if you have a lot of pimples and
blemishes… and yes… fat!

– No, we’re not gonna carry your bags. We’re not bell boys. Some of
us are nice enough to offer but don’t make it seem like we owe it to
you, or like it’s a privilege.

10 Rules for Male Photographers from Female Models

– No we’re not going to sleep with you. Models are in very vulnerable
positions of having photographers take charge of what’s being shot. We
have to expose our skin time to time, and we know that is something hard
for some of you to handle. Did we mention No means No?

– We’re not an escort or dating service either. Enough said.

– Stop talking negative about others. While some are legit warnings
about shady photographers, we can usually tell if you’re just hating on
others or not.

– Stop being Jealous. We’re Models… we shoot with different photographers. Enough said.

– Compliment us time to time. We know you’re not our Bf’s to tell us
if our asses look fat or not… but a lot of us are insecure about certain
areas and we need to know if we’re doing fine. However, “You’re HAWT!!!
is not a compliment.

– If you want us to look good for our shoots, please don’t offer any
cold cuts or pizza when we eat. We do have cravings too, and it kills us
that we can’t eat them.

– Get over yourself. A lot of Photographers have what we call “God
Complexes”. You’re good, we chose you. But there are plenty of
Photographers who are better out there.

– Photos take time to edit, but don’t take “too much time”. We’re
excited to see what you’ve done with us so can you blame us for rushing
you?

– Don’t be offended if we’re careful with signing certain contracts.
We just don’t want to end up being in some sort of porn site.

– If we want to bring our BF’s for the sake of protection, please try
to understand. Especially if this is our first time. There are a lot of
creeps out there and we just don’t want to get raped or sexually
harassed.
