What if this particular photographer also has a history of sexually assaulting models and has changed his name and company names multiple times over the years to hide who he really is?
******how do you have proof of this? any proof you have would be good enough for the cops . . . if he has open warrants . . just drop a dime
Now let's pretend that this photographer is in the same town you are in and shoots for some of the same clients that you shoot for...Making him a direct competitor.
***in my experience the clients do not care about the behaviors of the photographers in any way . . . we all sign agreements that we will not give any 'inappropriate material' to the clients . . any false ID's would bounce right back on the shooter in court.
Let's pretend that you are a photographer and you have been informed that another photographer has made attempts to recruit and shoot under age models....even going so far as to offer to make fake ID's for the model.
**** the underage models should report the guy to the heat and you can just move on to something else.
Would you mind your own business or would you mention this to the common clients? On one hand you would be doing the right thing out of concern for your clients but on the other hand....Would you want people to think you were making shit up to get rid of the competition?
**** I express my concern for my clients by delivering the very best product I can deliver, on time . . I leave other shooters and their relationships to the clients alone . .
