Then I sent her to shoot for Matt. Through some misunderstandings she was allowed to shoot for everyone in LA while down there.
This is EXACTLY why I don't send models to shoot in LA anymore.

Someone pointed out to me that this makes it look like I'm saying "Matt" allowed her to shoot for everyone in LA. That is NOT what was intended.
Matt only let her shoot for Stephen Hicks and for a friend of his. On the photo sets it is likely she exchanged numbers and cards with other models, or agents or something. She ended up shooting several jobs.
The misunderstanding is on MY part. I didn't realize how easy it was for other agents, etc. to approach these girls on an LA set. For the record: Matt asked me before sending her ANYWHERE if I was okay with him sending her to Stephen Hicks. I told him to go ahead because I wanted her to be able to make the extra money.
So, as I said: I completely misunderstood how easy it is for a model to get spread around simply by shooting for a reputable photographer. But now that I learned that lesson I haven't been sending girls down to LA. One of the reasons the models I find are so valuable is because they are not seen anywhere on the net unless I put them there.
So, I apologize to Matt if this post made it seem like Chantelle was spread thin because of him. That's not the case at all.
