Anyone here ever try model mayhem

[Studio7Four]

I'm on MM and have had reasonably good luck with it. Don't get me wrong, I've had my share of email exchanges which led nowhere, but I've never had a model flake on me the day of the shoot.

I almost exclusively shoot TF with MM models, but if you're worried about flaking you can always pay for a more professional model. Many are willing to offer lower rates for someone who is just building a portfolio (compared with wanting a commercial model release). They'll have references you can check and know what they're doing in front of the camera.

I'm on there and it works fine for me, I get to try out new lighting techniques and equipment and they get a CD of images they can use as they wish. Just don't get carried away with promising a bunch of images , just like a model that needs headshots etc. 4-6 worked images is fair depending on your experience. Right away ask for a contact # etc. if they give the cell phone # they are serious about getting a shoot done. If you have to chat back and forth on MM trying to convince folks , move on.

Shoot well, Joe
