Is this rude

I wanted to know what you all think. This is on my profile and some model said it was RUDE.

 

It is a bit confusing to me. I want to categorize it as if you are selling a service but at the same time you could be the customer buying some time.

You should probably have two versions. One for your customers and one for you as the customer. That's the big problem I see with this. It is fine if you are the boss(paying someone) but it is not fine if you are the one being paid(the employee)

 

Christ it's not like you're Annie Liebovitz yourself, so you can definitely afford to tone down your language. These are female civilians, not Army privates.

 

Annie Liebovitz......not yet at least.

I'm a bit above the private level. I don't even hear privates. I think you lose a bility to hear a private when you get promoted to SSG (unless you are drill SGT)

 

having two simply would not be practical.

 

Reminds me of this craigslist ad...

 

BWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA

stolen!

 

The other more experience photogs love it

I wanted to see what you lay-folk thought about it.

 

priceless...

 

well you have to be more hospitable and friendly then. When dealing with women, you have to find ways to sugar code.
edit: I'm looking at this from a general business prospective(don't piss off the money I mean customer). What you typed may be required for your industry.

 

Comments from the photo lounge

You got have thick skin to be around these cats....wooo

 

i work in the industry and unfortunately if you don't spell it out for the makeup artists and models then they ask too many questions

besides that most are not getting top dollar in these areas right now due to the recession...my artists make 25.00 an hour to do makeup and sell product in a retail environment...everyone wants to be a model so i agree that they either have a portfolio or they pay you...i assume you provide them with photos for their portfolios after a session

 

MAN! Are you WRONG!

Clients...yes of course.

Model. HELL TO THE NO. These chick are CUT THROAT!!!! From the newbie to the pro. And they are even worse towards each other.

 

Yeah they sound life e-tuffies. What do their ads look like?

 

Like?

 

The MUAs I actually give a great deal of work and let them choose their shots. I think they get the short end of the stick. I also let MUA's publish their work and give them the credit if they submit. I have three that I work with exclusively in DC...and I havn't found any here in Little Rock.

25.00 per face is REALLY GOOD....hell that's not even kit fee.

 

Yeah like. Are you messing with me again?

 

Yea, I'm not too informed about the industry. I am simply looking at it from the general business standard and still a bit confused about who is paying or is getting paid.

 

Anything not sounding like I want to lick your feet(s) sounds like

e-thug
e-tuff
e-gangta

to many of you people LOL@you people......(I kill me)

I think a couple of yall read from the same e-book.

Actually the most experienced one doesn't have ANYTHING on his profile.......just pics

...and if you don't get naked, he won't shoot you. (Whether you pay or not). And women FLOCK to him. I'm trying to get to that level.

 

For models, I didn't find it rude. Like you said, they aren't regular day to day clients.
I probably would have omitted 2 sentences just because they didn't really add anything of value. Thats all.
