I used to be like you Capture... a shooter who mainly shot exclusive stuff for a specific client and the model got told exactly where the content was going to be published. Times have changed daddy-o...

It's not at ALL tacky or un-profesh to hire a model for the day and shoot as much content for various clients as possible, it's called a General Release and its not new, this biz model goes back 20 plus years - models are informed prior to booking and its often for non-exclusive content that may sell to multiple sites in the future.

Models want day rates and they want to be told the numbers of scenes/sets and the number of hours they will be on site and as a fair content producer I tell them exactly that. I stick to the terms and they go away pleased and say nice things about me to friends and agents...everyones happy.

Your idea that you shoot a model for a specific client and THATS where the material is going to be seen...well...thats a little horse and buggy my man.
