Sure! I'll give you my photography ideas!
Lose lips sink ships and screw up great concepts. Jan 18 06 03:40 pm Link Picasso can give me his brushes, and we can talk about his ideas...I will never be a Picasso:) Jan 18 06 03:43 pm Link Personally, I don't mind going over ideas with a model. I also like meeting with a model beforehand, especially if they are TFCD shoots. These shoots are meant to be a collective effort on the part of the photographer and the model, so looks, clothing, locations, props are important to discuss. Everyone knows that you have to steal, steal, steal. Good lord, people, it happens in the movies, novels, plays and music. Do you think photographers are too good to be stolen from? I'll start being secret with my ideas when I'm footing the bills for the shoot, i.e. paying the model, paying the stylist to get exactly what I want.

If you bring everything we go through it once, then I know what is available to me... I've been warned by models that tell me they have 2 suitcases full and I say okay and don't forget the shoes! I have a van and can pack a lot of shit in it no problem! Jan 19 06 03:53 am Link Keyronn wrote: And if they break it what are you gonna do? NOTHING! Jan 19 06 03:58 am Link I like your thinking, Hamza. Bring everything! It's so simple; why didn't I think of that!? (and I am not being sarcastic). Jan 19 06 06:58 am Link russellpmiller wrote: Ok, but think about being the model and having to pack every piece of clothing you own... EVERY time you shoot! I know that photographers have a lot of equipment - but you know what you need on location shoots, and you have it ready in the studio. It's so much easier to at least get SOME direction... Jan 19 06 07:12 am Link Mandie, I'm sure that we mean everything that is related to the shoot. So if you are doing goth, then bring gothy things, etc. I personally look for 2 or 3 outfits especially with TFCD shoots (9 hours of photographing means a LOT of time in front of the computer editing). Jan 19 06 11:05 am Link i *think* i've had this happen too, but you know what? it's finders keepers. if somebody else hears my idea and gets it done b4 i do (even with my head start) guess what? they won! the problem isn't letting my precious concept leak out, it's being too slow in getting it done. Jan 19 06 04:59 pm Link tell me about it, a few years ago i said out loud, "how about wearing angle wings and point a gun at the camera while standing in a grave yard" i should of copy right it but i move on to pin up.

Geez a mind is a terrible thing to waste...damn lazy brain people. Tell it like it is my friend. Jan 21 06 03:01 pm Link I hope it's okay for a newbie to post here.  Dave Krueger wrote: I've with Dave here. However, I think it just downright bitchy to contact someone pretending interest in working together with the sole purpose of harvesting ideas. People who do that should rot in photography hell, as far as I'm concerned. With any luck (at the very least), the stolen shoot would go horribly wrong and many loooooong days and nights of preparation would go down the toilet right along with their professional image.
