- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
You may have more experience then I do, but honestly this trend is starting to die aswell. Many photographers i've noticed are starting to get fed up with paying for literally everything. Yes, many understand it is an expensive field to get into and that is one of the requisites into getting the exact photo you wan't. I've noticed on some sites where photographers state they are only TF's or looking for compensation themselves.There's a good chance she expects to get paid. She may well have pegged you as an amateur willing to pay for a good model, and doesn't care of you're any good.
Working models don't pay the photographer. Either the client pays both the photographer and the model, or the photographer pays the model. The only time money goes the other way is when the model is very very new and probably both naive and unskilled.
There are exceptions, of course. Far more common are GWACs who lie about hour the models actually pay THEM.
Eitherway, if a model quoted me a price to shoot them, i'd say something along the lines "Well My price is (2x what the model asked for), so you can get a 50% discount)
