Interesting discussion so far.
In response to the original question.........
Referring to another photographer would be something I would do based on my experience with said photographer. If I don't know them or know people that know them and have experience with them, my reputation could be damaged by a bad referral, so I am not willing to trade that for $100 referral fees. Referring to another photographer that I know and trust wouldn't even require a referral fee, but thank you's are always great to get as are return referrals.
Beyond that, most models are funny, odd, crazy, strange, cute, different, interesting, and/or any combination of the above. I love to hear their stories and then wonder how much of them are true and how much are BS. It's all part of the gig and part of what we do.
