I think i'm not bad, but i'm not great yet, and probably will never be great enough in my mind. I'm also pretty harsh with the work of others, it's not only about me.
But I have a hard time finding model to build up a non boudoir portfolio.
Every girls approaching me wants boudoir... And when I told them that I only do Pay photoshoot for boudoir but I would gladly work TF for fashion or portrait, they have all of these ridiculous demands, like MUA, Hairstylist, wardrobe stylist. They are no model, most of them have shitty portfolio with 'fauxtographer' but they are so use to get what they want from everyone that they act like divas.
And I do not have a budget to hire professionnal models either. I'm stuck.
I agree it's more about Marketing skills these days, i'm thinking about sign in up for some courses.
I can't fail, photo is my only option,
I won't prostitute myself anymore.
