Yep....horrible shit.

I met this model a few months ago in the office of another photographer in L.A. She was down from Canada with her boyfriend. I declined shooting her. They were both super nice people. I feel very saddened by this.


I must say that for the past several years Ive been telling models I work with the DANGER SIGNS of working with certain people. I do not know how she met this supposed photographer - but these days......its more and more prevelant that models meet photographers online.

I believe its time for EVERYBODY to wise up about SAFETY and the steps everyone can take to avoid bad situations including first and foremost: REFERENCES & MORE REFERENCES.
Also taking along an escort, asking all the right questions, and emails - phone calls to establish CREDIBILITY.

Really sad.
