Sarah look at the other side of the coin. Same coin different view.

I'm trying to shoot porn, trying to get a performance out of the girl so it's easy for others to sell, trying to get inside the girls head and motivate her. Can I do that with a friend sitting behind me?

Do I let a stranger sit in my studio, office or house with supervision?

The girl does not trust me, fine let her stay at home. The friend can bring her to the door and sit on the doorstep. They don't come through the door. I was advised by the police to have CCTV installed, not for the models protection but for mine.

Of course if everyone would buy lame videos and pictures sets with a girl clearly not projecting what is required I'm fine with it. Do you want content that converts at 1-500 or 1-5,000?

Not trying to be harsh, just point out what we have to do so we and others can make a living. For girls who want to be safer here's some real useful tips. Don't drink in a bar, don't go home alone, don't meet strangers in a bar, don't let them take you home and definitely don't be alone with them until you have met their family and had a police report on them. Sad but true in 2007.
