BLACKLISTED, FLAKES & LATES
I do my research on models that ask to shoot and contact photographers that have worked with them for their impressions (Diva, late, flake, etc) if its bad then your blacklisted.
TIPS FOR MODELS
"As a photographer u should make me chase you NOT LEAD you!" Nigel Barker (noted fashion photographer)
1) Study and master your Poses: Watch vids on Youtube and pratice in the mirror. Yes, you will look funny, yes you might even be embarrsed but in the end you will have a leg up on the competition. People are looking at your photo to see something. You must give them something to look at. In human interaction, body language says alot, learn to say something with yours.
2) Practice facial expressions: A blank face is not attractive, Think about it, think about a blank face starring back at you and how that would feel...ok, I think I made my point. Smiles and such, without sounds also communicate to the viewer. The models who are often the most successful have something to say that they relate to the viewer.
3) Educate yourself: You say you want to be a Fashion model, read Vogue. You want to be a porn star, watch Porn. There is so much you can learn by example by watching what other people do and studying them, being able to emmulate them and then adding your own personal touches can make you not only knowledgeable about where you really want to go, but you could help you gain knowledge about how you're gonna help yourself get there!
