Where do you get those wonderful models?
i don't know... they either call, or email me. most girls, however, have a little bit skewed opinion about their beauty and/or want me to do head shots and comp cards. those i ditch immediately. some, for an utterly unknown reason, think that i must shoot them for free. yeah, right.

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch, especially in that regard.

Wait a minute, let me get this straight. You have women calling you and asking you to take pictures of them sans clothes and then you charge them for it? You are my new hero irakly!

hahaha, well, i guess, i am so used to it that it is only after you said it that i realized how strange the situation is :) same about my students: my wife once said looking at photos from an advanced course on photographic style: "i cannot believe that people actually pay you for THIS"

I find myself in the awkward position of agreeing with someone's wife... certainly never happens with my own :)

That is for sure. When i did my gig doing fashion in the older days , it certainly was a lot fun but don't let anyone kid you . This is hard work even as pleasant as it may seem there is a lot to deal with in this business.

Maybe the sign of a real pro when they make it look easy (and fun).

tell me about it... i got really disillusioned in all this fashion thing when shooting backstage i saw one runway model piercing another girl's foot with her stiletto shoe because they had a disagreement on who is gonna go first.
