Does Anyone Even Get Off of Your "Blacklist"?
With all the last minute callouts and flaking from MM models, I have been tempted to create "The List", but then I remember that the model who let me down the most became one of my favs., with four shoots behind us, Because I treated her the way I want to be treated; I allowed her to be human.

Whoever it may concern you're on this persons blacklist. 'Why do amateurs quote a book of rules on etiquette which has no real substance apart from snobbery calling it professionalism whilst professionals tend to act like amateurs. It's a lot better than being some clown who thinks they're better. Just because I got kick out of model mayhem doesn't mean I have given up or stop with my photography. If anything, you losers who ambushed and kick me while down, gave me the encouragement to do better than ever. Then crush you under my foot. Bite me.' Anyone else receive this ?

Jun 24 14 09:38 pm Link I don't have a physical "blacklist" because there's really not many people that have done me wrong (so far). So it's not too hard to keep track of who I want to avoid. I haven't had many photographers flake on me, but I do have one that has been avoiding giving photos back, and another that thrived off causing drama for me. But I still list whoever I work with on my profile, but I don't mention "Oh, don't work with this person in particular because...." since I don't believe in publicly outing. If someone wants to know they are a free to ask. If they were to apologize to me? Then I'd consider shooting again, I guess everyone deserves a second chance...but after that, it's not worth it.
