I passed up the biggest career opportunity of my life.

A "model" contacted me and asked me if I would shoot her for this:

(NOT SAFE FOR WORK) http://www.facebook.com/CosplayDeviants?fref=ts

I said no.

:lol:

Well there goes 1 of my 2 annual signings to Facebook - and they moved everything again!!! I got lost and forgot what I was supposed to be checking out.

That said if you've missed it you've only one choice - you must start your own! Outclass them with better photography, better models and better all round stuff (I think mish has some handcuffs so you could team up with her and get started with the Police Academy cosplay!)

Don't sweat it, this town is full of opportunities. Oh, wait, no it isn't. You only get one and then you have to leave.

Kidding. While Nashville isn't LA or New York there is a lot of video and still photography around here. Certainly lots of music production. All of them need photographers. One model is only one model among thousands. Don't sweat it.

Emily... I am surprised! You could have brought a whole new level of quality to the shots on those pages. I would have skipped shooting the real skanks, but some of those models would be worth shooting! Done creatively, and well... it would have been worth doing! You saw my Snake Jam stuff, didn't you? Not that much different... On my Flickr....

Oh dear, they want to be suicide girls.

Heck, they might BE the next suicide girls, which looked.. about like that when they started out.

Dude. Your snake stuff was artistic... and as far as the impression it made on me, NOT mean to make anime fan boys go ::FAP FAP FAP::

I am NOT a "Nerdboy" (as opposed to Playboy) photographer. :lol:

The LAST thing I want is future clients looking me up and seeing my name attached to THAT sh*t.

Could I have done a better job than what is displayed on there? Sure. (And that's not me being cocky... that's just facts. Did you LOOK at the images?) But I STILL... want NOTHING. Do do. With that crap. :biglaugh:
