Nice Pictures

Details:

Looking for fit/athletic female and male models for an editorial shoot for sports watches.    Mostl close-up of watches on arms, with a few action shots as well. This shoot is for a story in Distro, a digital magazine for iPads, android tablets and kindles.  We have over 400,000 users, so you’ll get lots of exposure.  We have no budget for models, however I’m more than happy to give you the digital files, make a few prints, and shoot something you may need for your book.  I can also try to get a gas stipend, and a model credit in the magazine.
Shoot should be 1-2 hours.

400,000+ users and no budget for models? You’re doing it wrong.

photographer for birthday party - calling creative beginners!

Casting for a photographer for central London birthday party. Venue tbc. We are looking for someone with a small amount of photography experience to be present at a birthday party for a couple of hours. This is unpaid however we will cover travel expenses and drinks. This is a great opportunity for a beginner photographer looking to network and gain experience at a fun and sociable event. This is not a sweet sixteen type event, no divas we are just needing someone cool and fun to take photos on a decent SLR. If you are free on the 9th evening please send me a message and i will give you a ring to discuss the event.

Lucy’s Model Mayhem profile states that she “rarely” does “TF work,” but she’s apparently fine with asking photographers to document a birthday party (which is not a portfolio-building opportunity, even for “creative beginners”), but not offering to pay them. If you’re “cool and fun” and have a “decent SLR,” you can hang out with Lucy and her real friends, take some pictures, and pretend to be part of her world for a few precious hours. Then you give her the pictures and get lost.

This very special casting call was brought to our attention by one of our lovely followers:

Wedding Photographer Needed

Hi guys,

I need a Wedding Photographer. The request is TF, but would be a great opportunity for a new photographer to add pictures to their portfolio.

I will provide free food and drinks for the person!
I would also be happy to pay for your travel expenses.

It will be a fun filled and exciting day, hopefully we can mutually help each other with what we need!

Please message me to let me know if you would be available and we can take things from there!

Thanks,

Vicky

Vicky is an agency model, but apparently she doesn’t have even a single photographer friend who would be willing to shoot her wedding for a reduced rate. Instead, she expects to find a complete stranger to do it in exchange for “free food and drinks.” I suppose if it doesn’t work out the way she wants she can just schedule a re-shoot with a different photographer. Yeah.
