But you have to admit that not a lot of adult photographers would even buy a model a place ticket.

The story behind that is this. She wanted me to Western Union her $200.00 cash so that she could drive up from Houston with her Mom. Then she emailed me saying that Mom could not make it, and that she would take the bus.
I felt sorry for her, and did not think that a 5'3" 18 year old blonde from the country on a bus was a good idea, (she's not very wordly she did not know what she would be getting into) not to mention what a great mood it would put her in to shoot. So I bought the Plane ticket because I felt sorry for her, and because I wanted a model who was fresh and ready to shoot.
She made it sound as though she was too poor to get here any other way. Then she shows up with the hood she introduces as her cousin, and she wanted to bring along some guy she met on the plane too.
I don't know who this guy is that's bashing me, but he was not there, he does not know what happened, and I have over a hundred emails from this model over the course of a week, replying to my emails answering every question she had, and explaining everything to her in detail.
Like I said above, those of you who are in the biz, and put up with this crap on a regular basis know what I'm talking about. As for Mr Basher, if she's such a wonderful person why doesn't she refund my hundred bucks? I'll tell you why, because she had no intention of shooting with me in the first place.
You see Models get paid after the work is done. She wanted the money upfront, and the room paid for first, before she did the work. Those conditions are more condusive to another line of work.
As for posting a link to that forum. The one where I am being bashed and I can't post to defend myself? Why the hell would I want to do that?
Sheesh
