Genuine talented photographer wants to build portfolio

[Travellingman]

Hello! I am a genuine photographer with studio lighting who wants to branch out into model photography - my medium is normally abstract.

I will take your photos for free and give you up to 10 images you like fully photoshopped - seriously no strings as I want to build up my portfolio.

Please email me on imaginingdallas@gmail.com. I can send examples of my work and provide provider references.

Best wishes!

Just to say - service is free but you should be of slim / medium build suitable for a portfolio - thanks

wait - so are you also Travellingman and if you look at the providers not all of them are slim built - the true photographers shoot providers for their ads (slim, medium, thick, curvy, whatever - they shoot them because all providers need photos not just the slim cute ones) - if you want to be selective and build a modeling portfolio then you should go to somewhere like modelmayhem not eccie or escort websites

Ok I have a few questions.... Are you two working together or is this one person?
Also in picture #2 I am almost positive I can see a man in the background with no shirt. Just my observation but if you would like to clarify that would be great.

lol...I was wondering what that meant but I figured it was some new photography term or something for those new shooters out there - abstract mediums - or maybe it's some new photoshop filters...or if you sound like you know what you're doing then you hope you'll get a bunch of trade offers from the providers..lol

[Travellingman]

Not the same person - he introduced me to the world of Eccie for fun then I though that maybe I could do some providers a favour and I get to practice my model shots - i did mention to him that some larger ladies had replied so I guess he tried to help lol!

Ok because his post echoing yours made it appear that you are the same person.

A couple of suggestions - if you are looking to practice then you should really look at modeling sites and not escort sites because the images that you give the ladies are not practice images for them, they are marketing images and have to be something that is marketable - not saying your work is not - but if you are going to give them something for their showcase then it should be something that they can market and use to gain income from, not something that you want to practice around with.

Next, if you post an image as your sample and you are saying to the ladies that nothing is expected, it gives a really bad impression to have yourself in the background of the image topless - I don't know any professional photographers that shoot their models without their shirts on and I know a lot of professional, published photographers.

Lastly, using terms like "genuine professional" and "abstract medium" kind of goes up there when the girls use terms like "photos are 100% me or it's free" or "I'm truly independent" - those are just words and no one takes them seriously. The proof is in the work not the words.

Just giving my .02.

Yeah me to .
Just to clarify he messaged me and let me know that,
that was the models reflection NOT a man. Yeah right and i'm Tyra Banks .
Also I still don't understand if there is only one of you who is a "photographer"
the O.P I guess why did the other guy try to jack your thread like he was you?

wow....forget all the rest - this pretty much says it all - it's free if she's "suitable for a portfolio" but you're a photographer - genuine and talented.
