So I had my first experience with two professional photographers yesterday (Tuesday)...
The first shoot went really really well. He just wanted me to have fun, which was really easy... kinda wish music had been playing. I went through like 5 outfits. At one point there was a silk blue sheet hanging from the ceiling and I had to interact with it. That was TONS of fun. Overall he didn't have to give me a lot of direction and there were lots of compliments. Amazing. Plus, he reimbursed my gas... plus 50 bucks because he didn't realize that it would take me 2 and a half hours to get there. So 100 bucks for the shoot that I had an amazing time at. Plus he took me and my escort (my boy) out to eat afterwards.
The second shoot was entirely different. He was weird. Seriously weird. I was standing holding colored metal fish. Seriously? Metal fish? Come on. I couldn't get into it. Plus he was definitely like turning my head and directing my body into specific positions. It was hard to hold them for so long. Plus he had like 4 different fish that I had to hold. Yay. After 45 minutes he was done. He gave me 30 bucks. I didn't even care that he said he would reimburse me for gas plus 20 bucks an hour. If I had driven all that way and just had a shoot with him I probably wouldn't model anymore. That's how bad it was.
Anyway, they'll send me the pics in like 2 weeks, which I will definitely post so you can see.
It was one long day.
