Just had a model from Vegas get upset because I requested a friendship, but I'm in Alabama.  What?  She thinks friendships mean that we have to shoot.  Did I miss something in the rules here?

Trade For-  the star can be anything from digital images, prints, clothes, ...whatever is agreed upon by both parties usually before the shoot.  You should get things in writing.  I've even offered TF-Cheesecake, but no one has taken me up on that yet. 

As you're new, I would STRONGLY suggest reading www.newmodels.com .

feeling somewhat apprehensive about making a post *bites nails* i did skip a couple of pages of this thread before posting!!! tongue

looking forward to learning lots.

gotta ask one thing - are old school members encouraged to respond to annoying newbie mistake etc politely or are newbies just expected to bow out due to having been on this site for less time?  i hope this site encourages ALL members to treat each other with the respect everyone deserves!

i think the wolves should look on us fawns more like their wolf pups than fawns. heaven knows i dont want to be eaten, and i would rather be shown the way and taught by my pack leaders, rather than a poor defenceless fawn scared even of the bunnies smile

Hello,

A Newbie here. I have little experience and would appreciate advice and comments about my current portfolio and where to look for work. It would be great to speak with experienced people or even other newbies in London. Give me a tag.

If you click on the info tab (right next to "my stuff") you'll see a little bit of highlighted text that says "contact us..."  That's the link.
I attaced the direct link anyway...
