11. i started my period
12. i was on my way to the studio and i left the directions at home
13. i overbooked
14. i went to the doctor and turns out i'm pregnant.
15. my grandfather died
16. death in the family
18. i didn't have enough money for gas to get there.
19. too much traffic so i decided to go to the beach instead.
20. had to stay late at work then while i was rushing to get to the studio (better late than never) my car broke down and i got into an accident with a car that had my boyfriend and my grandmother in it.
21. i was so hungover
22. i died last night


would love to hear more.

Awesome, but you forgot the that the accident only happened because her poor ill cat ran across the street and that she wanted to get a taxi afterwards, but was taken as a hostage in a bank robbery when she wanted to get money for the taxi from the ATM.

23. I found god

it doesnt matter, only thing matters is that they are not going to be at your shoot. its only a waste of energy to try to think differently, and even to try to reschedule them is often also a waste of time.

24. i stopped doing b/g
25. my husband had a heart attack, had to go to hospital

Why is it models have so many grandmothers?

Steve Lightspeed has some fucking really funny ones! we used to get so fucked up excuses

i woke up a my Vag was broke!

loooooooool

I have worked with hunderds of amateur girls and have heard most of those plus many more. LOL.

That is a great list - here are so more

I had to go court.
My best friend tried to commit suicide.
My best friend od.
I had to bail my boy friend out of jail.
I got a call from Playboy and they want me to work for them.
I had to drive my little brother to soccer.


I can go on and on

It's even better when they have some good excuses to try and get the job in the first place.

1. If you want to shoot me you have to book me asap because I am about to become a contract girl for "so and so company"..

yep, or i am quitting the business next week so if you want to shoot me, it has to be really soon, and btw, i just got a new AIM test y'day...

I just had a model walk off set after getting her make-up done. She "wasn't feeling the male talent".

Uh-huh.

Like I run a fucking dating service around here.

I forgot

We having drinks in PHX?

Well in your case I do believe that they aren't making an excuse... lolz


Just busting your balls bud.

a model did put diesel in her tank instead of gas on the way to a shoot of mine once.

you missed I got pregeant ... I got that one quite a few times .. oddly enough form the same model over a three month period (lol she actually got preggy and had an abortion three times in as many months!)

A model named Claire Bandit once called me ten minutes after she was supposed to be at my studio, and told me she couldn't make the shoot because she was frightened her boyfriend's dog was going to die, and she wanted to stay with the animal.

eerily similar to the "why i havent paid you yet" list.

I was out all night drinking nad doing drugs celebrating my boyfriends birthday... a good photographer should be able to shoot around that!

how the fuck did she do that? the hose won't fit...

Dude. Of course!

It is amazing how many chicks have car wrecks on the way to shoots.

I left my makeup in my friends car.
I don't have a ride.
I lost my phone.
Something came up with my son and he is more important than calling you to cancel.
I got shot. (This one is true. Boyfriend shot her in the leg. She ended up shooting with us later and had a tattoo around the bullet hole. )

heard most of them i hate to say

those are funny, but well known unfortunately.

:1orglaugh
ha ha ha!!! nice one sebs,
how bout - "I just shot for bangbus so my career is taking off":1orglaugh

Those are some good ones

I fell down stairs and have really bad bruises
Really big pimple on my face
I'm sick cough cough
I have to do a drug abuse intervention for a friend
I have exams at school

I went to the airport to pick one up once and her luggage arrived....but not her.

She missed the plane.

But hey, the girl gets an "A" for effort anyway :upsidedow

HAHAHA this one win!

"I've got my periods started" is the most popular here so far

I got, "my mom's sick" a couple of weeks ago. Also, "my goldfish died". The one's who are strippers too are THE WORST LIARS. They'll lie when the truth is of no consequence whatsoever. It's like they're on lying autopilot.

i remember that a friend of mine, who shot nearly every day, said it got so bad at one point, he considered opening a site called unreliablebitches.com and when you entered the members area it was gonna be loads of missing pics and red x's everywhere, along with a couple of lines of text saying... this one would have been GREAT... had she showed up !

Don't forget to add "...but it's not my fault." to the end of everything.

"i'm on a shoot right now and they are running late, I'll be there as soon as we are done here"

it's number 14 :)

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

its actually preferred that they stay home that day(s) when their red friend is visiting.... unfortunately too many times i have been told (while shooting) "..ooops that wasnt supposed to come until next week.." or "..i am on prima / patch / whatever and sometimes it just spotting whenever, i cant help it.."

had a VERY well known model tell us that SHE had died the day before the shoot a few years back.. Claimed she was died for like 4 mins or something due to some heart condition.

Since then I have worked and hung out with her but never even bothered to ask about it..

"I found there is no money in porn "

I REMEMBER GETTING THAT ONE ONCE....

they sort of have a site called that it's called pornstarperformance.com lol:1orglaugh

I can't handle getting tied up:Oh crap

-my herpes is flaring up something awful
-I've decided I will only do scat shoots from now on
-I was masturbating with a hot glue gun and accidentally plugged up my vag

Another one that is probably legit is:

"I'm on my period"

SEMI legit... I know plenty of girls who work on it and just use a sponge. I agree that it might not always be the most pleasant but it does the job if they want the job.

a typical czech thing is: they simply don't come and then don't pick up the phone for a week. after that they pretend nothing happend

I had a model once tell me she couldn't make because she was on a coke bender could not afford rehab and checked herself into the mental hospital for 10 days to get a quick clean up. The best part was how she was so nonchalant about the whole thing like everybody does it.

okay i got 3 from the same girl in a week,
first she got her period, (okay no biggie we'll move it a few days)
second we got the date planned and now she's sick, said can we do it on wed(alright no biggie)
third, now that she's feeling better her grandmother died and the funeral is wed

now seriously i am a compassionate person and pretty dam easy going but, if you're sick why would you go near your grandmother whos' health is not very good to get her sick so she would die and you can change your shoot date again??? that's fucked up.

My pussy is in the shop
