    Exclamation Warning!: photographer R.G, OMP# 21266

    This is a message to anyone using OneModelPlace.com as a model, especially girls in San Diego or elsewhere Southern CA.

    To the moderators, if this violates the TOS's privacy policy, please contact me. The Onemodelplace TOS states, however, that I, as an affiliate, my post content sent to me.

    This is the photographer's and my entire email exchange, beginning with his initial message to me:

    "Hi [my stage name],
    Check out ALL of my photos. If you like what you see. You will see the best way to contacting me is by exchanging numbers or by YOU call me at the studio. ALL questions will be answered with that call. I'm located in San Diego. If you request I can show you Playboy style nudes. [his phone #]

    Have a wonderful day
    [RG]"

    I assumed he contacted me because I stated in my portfolio "I'm an exotic dancer looking to move into erotic/ fetish photography." (I understand now that my being a dancer was a mistake to mention.) I checked out his web page and saw his $50 appointment fee for any and all TFCD/TFP shoots (or "test shoots, as he called it), even when he initiates contact. Also, his portfolio pictures was more geared towards fashion modeling. Having been originally irked by his rather arrogant email anyway, I sent his this reply:

    “Mr. [G],
    Thank you for contacting me but I’m not interested in working with you at this time. My schedule is full for the next couple weeks and I honestly cannot afford $50 for a “free” test shoot. Also, your style of photography is not what I’m looking to add to my portfolio.

    Regards,
    [my stage name]

    The next day (today) I received two emails from him in my box. The first one had within it 10 glamour-nude pictures, many of which were repeats of the same girl, sent with this message:

    "By the way I can shoot any style clothed or nude you want.If you look closely at my photos on OMP you will see there are quite a few strippers on that site.
    The $50 is because strippers make appointments and don't show. After 15 years the $50 made them all come on time.
    All payed me also. I'd be willing to shoot you at no charge for a limited amount of photos.
    Look at these nudes below"


    (I know, because all strippers have that same "I'm dirty!" look to them.) And then an email timestamped 3 minutes later containing this message (here's the kicker!!!!!):

    "If you don't want to pay anything and get some awesome photos.Then we can work out some lap dances to even out the working fee's by myself
    Otherwise if Playboy playmates pay to shoot me and renown models pay me all other will.

    Think it over. San Diego, I can mix with styles.
    I can also teach you allot that you don't know...

    Interested Call me [his phone #]

    Have a nice day
    [R]"



    Well he'll regret sending that to a PMS'ing stripper! I laughed all the way to the "report me" button. I really hope other girls didn't have to put up with that from him! And hopefully, none after me will. His grammar was amusing, anyway.

    He has a paid membership, one that allows a very large quantity of photos to be displayed on his profile, and has been a general member for at least 6 years. It worries me because to a girl who's not as careful, this man and his profile does NOT scream guy-with-camera. That, and I'm sure as a LD customer, he'd be a grabby old fart.

    So.... all strippers are flakes who don't show?

    This is actually rather typical of what I like to call "guys with cameras". Though I am surprised he came right out and said it like that without even knowing who he was talking to.

    You're right. It's important to be careful. There are a lot of really bad ppl to meet in this business, and the ones who always end up getting hurt are the new girls who are too trusting too fast. I actually think being a stripper helps here bc I think it makes us more aware and wary. Thanks for posting this.
