Egh! Why is that girls on here have like 5-7 pictures that are NOT great think they're hot shyt?!

I understand the rest of your post but beauty is in the eye of the beholder so you may think their pictue is ugly but some others may not.

i'm sorry for the girl being so rude like that, she should have just taken it as a advice/suggestion.

just to say i see hundreds of profiles with models that shot with GWC guys and give them big heads small bodies and somehow they think this is good photography??? It really makes it hard for you to decide if you want to work with them or not. I think someone should post agency compcards so some of these kids can see what is real and what is GWC. Just my 3 cents. I refuse to get into the whole photoshop stuff at this time. High jacking will be later on.

she meant it figuratively.  but i agree with you, man.  :-)

Models w/big heads...

Photo shop might help...or it may be that they're underweight (like Nicole Richie) or spent some time in space http://spaceinfo.jaxa.jp/note/yujin/e/y … ody_e.html

Yea I think i'd rather have something on my bones than just be bone... its healthier and more attractive in my mind... I wouldn't want to think I'm able to be hid by a lightpole.
I hate letting it bother me, but this girl was just RUDE! And took my comment, etc. WAYYYYYY outta proportion, and I wanted to defend myself, but I hate feeling like i'm stooping to their levels...
And for me being 10x her + a whale... I think I look pretty damn good... lmao had to add that haha

I'd rather be anything that God made me. Ya know, some of us are naturally thin. One thing I've never understood about people, (mostly women) is why at times, some seem to HAVE to say something negative about the other.

For instance, a thinner girl would say..."I don't like fat girls, I like being skinny, skinny is more attractive"

This could be it...

I also try never to use a wide angle lens on a model w/ a big head.

Don't sweat it hun; you're gorgeous

And when you said big heads in the topic, I thought you were being literal haha.  oh well.  Even if I shot with 100 photographers I wouldn't think I was "hot shit".  I'd much rather say that I'm still gaining experience!

Oh........

I thought from the title you meant models with big heads like:

Alexis Dziena

Have you seen the size of this girl's head??? It doesn't belong on her body!  And she's playing a character that is 17??? HELLO she looks NOTHING like a 17 year old

http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/337 … ,%20Alexis

even though she's 21...(wtf...Olsen twins I think we found your new eating partner)

DUDE!  You watch Invasion, too?!!!  She so doesn't look 17, and she so does look like a lollipop!  A cute lollipop, but still a lollipop.

I'm pretty new to this, so my .02 might not count for much.  But I do know that a snotty attitude will get you nowhere.  I kinda feel sorry for the girl, she's gonna have a hard time getting anywhere if she doesn't get off her high horse.  And, Kemara, you ARE NOT fat.  Curves are IT, I'm so sick of seeing beanpoles everywhere.  Don't let her get you down. 

Side note......I have a HUGE head!  Literally. 

I agree with everything you said, though I can't say I'm tired of "beanpoles" because I suppose I AM ONE NATURALLY...but what I am tired of, is women fighting one another over who's "size" is better. I never got the point of all that, cause if it's over men...at the end of the day, a TYPICAL guy that's only worried about size and looks would honestly screw anything when push comes to shove. Women need to really start backing one another, and stop all the petty bickering. And that's one thing I love about the male mind, the overall sense of comradery...some women need to catch up. I'm not saying what the young cluck said to the original poster wasn't wrong. Life will catch up with her, because 9 times out of 10, she's going to GAIN weight in her lifetime. At least we know she'll be miserable in a few years. On top of that, to go off on someone and call them fat when they're clearly not...she has issues with herself and what women look like..which is EVERY size. Poor thing's been watching too much of the Style network.

but when I actually had a buy a wig, it had to be specially fitted because all the premade ones were too big.

So I have a small head.



seriously though, sometimes many of us could use an ego-check. Including myself.

Amen!

Maybe I should clarify:  I have no problem with naturally skinny women.  I do, however, have a problem with women who are not naturally thin who make themselves far too thin.  One of my dearest friends is TINY and she eats more than most men I know.  But it fits her, she's got a small frame.  It is far to often that I see a girl with a normal - to- average frame starved down to nothing.  That, to me, is a beanpole.  I agree completely with you on the comraderie issue, and I'm not a jealous girl, so I don't see why we can't all get along.    No hard feelings, right?

Oh no I totally understand what you're saying. I think it's very unfortunate how some women pressure themselves to be a certain weight. Believe it or not, a lot of women of color pressure themselves to GAIN weight or be curvier..lol. It's what the "men" in our culture seem to like. So the skinny women are USUALLY the ones that get cracked on. It's almost like no one understands we're not all meant to look alike. Though, the fashion industry really has a pro skinny complex, but they also have a pro tall complex, and heck that's one thing people can't change, lol.

They are all on MM!
Stick with the easy people and professionals! avoid the divas who roam the shout box all day with heavy attitude!

LOL hey good advice, and that can be applied to life as well :-)

KatieK,
from what I see in your port, you don't really have a big head.  However, you are wearing a shirt in one of your photos that I have, too!  Except mine is a light pink

me? lol I'm not talking about me lol.

If you saw this girls port, I'm DEFINITLY not jealous! Ugh! Work the camera like her... hmmm I'm gonna keep my mouth shut there... lol

Btw this is what she has at the beginning of her port:
ATTENTION! MUST READ! ATTENTION! MUST READ!

Once in a while I get hate mail from models either because they're jealous or because they can't "work the camera" like I can but either way it goes, when you get some experience and professionalism, maybe someone, other than a sapp, might shoot with u(An emphasis on "might").
