I have to disagree. I find it extremely difficult to shoot a girl with someone on the set that she brought with her to the set. Some girls end up spending more time looking at and paying attention to their "escorts" then they do to me. It slows down the shoot when I have to constantly be fighting for their attention. I have no problem with an escort bringing the model to the shoot, taking a look around and then leaving. I also don't have a problem with an escort hanging out at the shoot as long as they are not "on the set" or within eye contact with the model while I'm working with her. The last thing on my mind is "making a move on them". The first thing on my mind is getting good content and doing it in an efficient and timely manner. Anything that slows down the shoot for any reason is something that I take very seriously.
I've had shoots where the model and her escort got in an argument. I've had a models escort try to run my shoots and tell me what poses look best and even how I should be setting up my lights? Ahhh - no thanks. Escorts are more trouble then they are worth IMO. Of course I'm not talking about all escorts but from my experience...most of them
