Photographer Crashes Your Shoot, What Do You Do?
I had a six model shoot going once and another local photographer and his wife came up and started handing out his business cards to the models awaiting thier turn in rotation. He didn't even look at me much less say anything to me. I walked up to him and asked who he was. He answered and told me to mind my own business. No problem. One quick call to the local police. Showed them I had a permit for shooting there that day and told the cops he was harrasing the ladies. Turns out he was wanted on stalking charges. Bye bye in cuffs. All the models, their boyfriends and husbands and I waved goodbye as he was taken away Feb 08 20 05:41 pm Link Orca Bay Images wrote: When he steps onto the set!!!

Seriously other then get in his way, ask him to leave, explain how un-profressional he is being, Ask the models questions as he tries to talk them, basically be a much bigger ass then he is being. Bump into while you are shooting because he is in your way and you did not see him. Take photos of him, camera in his face. I was doing a beach shoot when some guys walked by and started making comments about the model. After a couple seconds, I told them she was only sixteen and they took off.

Right. Mar 25 20 08:31 pm Link Stand near him and start coughing......

The lad was only being curious. I hope I never stroll up on one of your sets :-/ May 05 20 01:24 am Link I would just make a BTS video, even sacrificing the equipment in favor of 1,000,000 views (or more, in the long run) for the bitching photographers, on my BTS youtube channel. It's how I can become, finally, famous - not by my photography, but by this lucky incident! everyone and her dog gonna remember my sufferings and my name forever. this particular video could potentially leave a mark in history of the industry and set an example by reference! it could be listed in national encyclopedia! just the royalties can potentially feed me and my family. Gosh, I could even invite some actor to reproduce the same evil guy's behavior on the shoot, or even exaggerate a little more, for me! Charlie Chaplin could be proud. just kidding May 29 20 05:14 pm Link I would not have said anything. I would have taken my 1Dx and started swing it over my head, quick and fast, hammer-throw style and smacked him in the face with it, maybe a few times!!! I've always wanted to do that and have wondered which would break first?!?! You think he would get my drift???

He is a self-absorbed, narcissistic jerk who was crashing a wedding shoot so he could rack up some tik tok likes. Notice he didn't just do this obnoxious deed, he had someone filming it so this was planned and deliberate on his part. I truly hope karma catches up to this idiot some day. Jun 13 20 02:12 pm Link |
