Well that of course is the other option. Had we spoke back then I would have had dozens of amateur models to choose from, and a few seasoned pros as well.
What I used to guaranty my clients is that the girls they would end up having available to them would be:
a) pre-qualified by phone
b) properly interviewed, age and/or credentials verified
c) test shots taken
d) test shots sent and pre-approved by client
Many clients/photographers/producers want completely 100% fresh amateur talent, the never-before-seen kind of models. That's where I would come in. Agents with a ready stable are usually offering girls whose stuff has been sold several times over, and then
some who are brand new. With my service, all of them are new, yet pre-qualified and pre-photographed by me.
It works for people who want to focus on production and photography and not so much on recruitment. Your system obviously works for you, I was making mention of what I offer simply for informational purposes only. One never knows what might come up in the future, right?
