Agree these would be a serious turnoffs if the OP's profile was the first introduction. However, she mentions being ignored at group events where chances are the photographers haven't seen it yet. I wonder if she had an intimidating "entourage" at the event?

God d*mn I must be pretty much the only short 5' model in existence who never complained about photographers passing me up because of my height. Even when I was younger it was an issue and I knew it

OH NO! I think we have another case of 'missing in action OP' on MM. This would make a tv series called MM MIA. It could be franchised like CSI and You will have models, photographers, MUAs solving the mysteries each week and we would look amazing all the time.

IMHO, taller models are overrated.

I'm talking about the world of modeling meaning fashion/editorial/commercial not doing it as a hobby model and sometimes getting paid. That being said, even with my two tattoos from the get go even serious art photographers have paid to shoot me. But then again I've always been in good shape and evenly proportioned at 5' and 100 lbs of mostly muscle and not a lot of fat. As well I've been pretty bendy as hell and still am. Also, I never tried to force myself into areas I wasn't fitted to and concentrated on what I was fitted to

I mean should I bring one when I teach yoga, they're strangers too?!? I've never understood this whole escort thing to shoots that are jobs, and which shoots aren't, even TF* ones are IMO. I mean common sense will weed out the wackos and not getting over desperate for money at all costs of all sensibilities will too.

I've only ever met one single model (an art model) who absolutely required even one assistant at a session - because she was a quadriplegic with minimal use of one arm, no mobility at all for her legs. That was about twenty years ago in the Los Angeles area.

I read the post. I looked at the OP's port -- and looked again. I read the OP's profile. After all that the only thing I can say is "huh"?
