does having a slutty or provocative profile name
Translate into more work? Edit: I have no names or examples to give as it was just a question. My question was derived by my curiosity around the clever names we all use and I was wondering if a more salacious name indeed attracts more work. My profile name comes from the two espalier pear trees on my studio. Feb 22 13 06:10 pm Link I look at the model's presence, not at her name. It makes no difference to me. Feb 22 13 06:14 pm Link Feb 22 13 06:16 pm Link Slutty? Feb 22 13 06:16 pm Link SPRINGHEEL wrote: ^^ Yes......uhhhh ? OP can you describe this alleged slutty name?

Feb 22 13 06:29 pm Link Somthing like Dick Hurts Feb 22 13 06:31 pm Link A name is part of the branding and usually indicates what the seller is selling, so I would expect a photographer who has a name along the lines of "iluvbigboobies" would have no problem getting a model who is aspiring to be the next Penthouse Pet but struggle to book a model who aspires to be in Vogue. On the same level a model with the name "ihavebigboobies" would probably be flooded with offers from photographers looking for a Penthouse styled shoot but struggle to be taken seriously by a high end fashion photographer. Whether that leads to more work or not would depend wholly on whether the model/photographer is smart enough to market themselves to their respective markets- or not. edit- doh i'm such a serious old fart! Feb 22 13 06:32 pm Link I just checked Sendu. None of the models are named Slutty. Can you give us some examples? Feb 22 13 06:39 pm Link Tubes-Tied Taryn?

Slut Feb 22 13 06:46 pm Link DP!!! grrr Feb 22 13 06:46 pm Link I once worked with an MM model who went by the name Filthy McNipples. True story.

Robin Cameras? Feb 22 13 06:49 pm Link Hm, no idea. My name was Sophia Bendz (which is kinda slutty, right?), but for some reason, MM wouldn't let me use that, so it turned in to Sophia Be. So now I'll never know Feb 22 13 06:50 pm Link The Space Cowboy wrote: Haha, I remember when she did that.

Feb 23 13 05:02 am Link things like xxsexychickxxx are obviously pointless .. there's a couple of well known Glamour models with fairly provocative sounding names .. apparently real' in the uk . although there workload probably has more to do with there looks than there names http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lacey_Banghard and Vikki blows Feb 23 13 05:14 am Link Truth: I find it a turnoff. More truth: If your name is Slurpy McButter or Kornpone Katie, I reserve the right to photograph you in a namesake theme shoot. Do not be surprised at this request. It's an obvious next step in your evolution as a llama. Be you. Own it. Feb 23 13 05:38 am Link ForeverFotos wrote: I... can't... make... this... unseen!

(she kept the name in real life though!!:-)))))))))) Feb 23 13 06:48 am Link Having a porny or "cutesey" username (like Princess Kittenfluffs) makes me click "next". Come to think of it, I do the same thing on dating sites. Feb 23 13 06:49 am Link |
