I'm a control freak too, and I've decided that I'm just going to do my own thing (and pay the models outright). Not worth trying to do the partnership thing, even when doing some of the other deals, plus I want a fair control. At least I'm not dependent on anyone else doing any work.

Maybe this thread should be titled "Resolving the Kina Kai issue (read before working with allasianmodels)". As I heard you were pretty specific in what you agreed to do with/for her and she was with you. If you are a control freak why didn't you take command of this in January when you just disappeared. Oh, and it is not very professional to post amounts paid to someone publicly. There was no mention of March payment.
All I saw were excuses in your post on this. Depression, break up and feeling sorry for self is not an excuse in business. One thing that gets me curious, why did you take time to drop her access to CCBill and not bother to tell her or even contact her? Is that just a plea of mea culpa or is it because she didn't like late night calls from you over non-biz affairs. Maybe it was because she would not show more pink as you had pushed for a few times. Isn't that considered what she wanted for an "Image" and you decided it wasn't? Maybe your other half left you due to your odd contact times with Kina and probably other talent.
If you are a control freak, well, get yourself in control. "I'm depressed" "I just was broken up with..." and "I was on vacation" are not good excuses. Control of what? It took you over 60 days to even respond to the situation. I can say other photographers I know have rolled their eyes over this whole thing. Nuff said here.
