A word of warning to new models & producers!

I was sent a link to a 'new' model resorce site called i-models.co.uk.
This site promises to be the place to get models & photographers/producers in touch with each other. It's free to join, but it shows you next to nothing about the people you may be interested in using. To get the full details you have to 'subscribe'!
Now I played the game and 'joined', tried to see if there were any new models who might be suitable, but found that I couldn't see enough details to see who does what, so rather than 'subscribe' I sent them an email explaining what I do and the reservations I had about parting with my hard earned cash. I've copy & pasted the reply I got:

Hi John,

Here is what happens to websites that are free.

Click here:> http://www.photo-models.co.uk/

We have received praise from some highly respected photographers
for our candid and honest approach to this business. We also think
that you probably won't find suitable girls through this site, so
I have deleted your details from the system accordingly.

We wish you the very best for the future.

Best Regards

Nicola Carney
Customer Services Manager

So, they are obviously no good for models in our profession and if you ask awkward questions you get deleted! Anyone who may have thought about joining save you cash!

Kym Morgan's on it. I wonder if she's had any work from it.

http://www.photo-models.co.uk looked all right to me although I didn't join. What are they on about there?

Anyway, there are plenty of good free sites.

Photo-models is an excellent site, one of the fastest growing sites in the UK.

My advice would be join Photo-models and don't even bother with i-models.

personally speaking...

my advice would be to book Kym Morgan direct!!! One of the best performers I have ever worked with- though I do have to say that round 2 with ROXY RARE was something special!!! Look out for it - Poppy Morgan productions... To think what I have been missing out on for 12 months!!!!

I thought you werer a bit old in the tooth John to part with the hard earned that easy! Now If you want to make an investment I have a.....Well maybe not. I suppose we all want that great new girl and search everywhere for her. Nothing wrong with paying to join a good model site but if they don't give at least some details in the public area they won't be around long.
Keep the flag flying!
