F**cking S**tty Day... Please Help.

Go there for an interesting read.

It's right royally f**cked up my budget, so once again I'm asking you to take full advantage of me... In the nicest possible sense, of course.

My completely stupid rates for Friday onwards (I'm not working tomorrow, not after that) are:

4 hours topless stills and/or vid: ?100
4 hours nude stills and/or vid: ?120
4 hours continental stills and/or vid: ?150
4 hours continental + anal stills and/or vid: ?180

Full day topless stills and/or vid: ?150
Full day nude stills and/or vid: ?170
Full day continental stills and/or vid: ?190
Full day continental + anal stills and/or vid: ?220

Only catch is you have to work at my well-appointed apartment in Preston, Lancs., which is hardly a catch as you're saving the cost of a studio and it's really nice.

Please give me a shout. You won't find a better offer.

I'm extending my offer due to a couple of shoots being rescheduled.

I'm available any day apart from the 15th, 20th, 21st and 27th.

I will travel for reasonable expenses, minimum booking still ?100

Hi Emily
very sorry to hear that.. and read your blog..
you should have called on Paul at PJA Media in Glasgow on the way North.. he's a good tog and reliable - maybe he could have been a fall back
I guess we all get time wasters and d**kheads aplenty
over a short time then these are some general rules that help me spot the pond life from the pro photographers
.. messages in the emails sent are in teenage text talk not words
.. ideas of fees are vague or ridiculously high or low
.. details of shoot are vague and unspecific
.. kisses accompany their name on the email
.. last minute 'excuses' such as studio has burnt down.. dog has eaten camera.. mum has lost his homework - you know the sort.
also
.. I never travel to a shoot unless I have talked to the guy, seen a web site/have a reference or have a pre-paid deposit to cover at least my travelling expenses..
hope it helps
like your scenes on Mr Gaslight's naughty site !happy!
yours Sally x

Since you turned other work down you could try the small claims court for loss of earnings. It doesn't cost very much and even if you didn't win it would send a very strong message to those who might thoughtlessly mess you around in future.

Is that some kind of a dig?

Believe it or not, I had two good reference for the guy, and everything else seemed to cheack out reasonably well, the only thing that didn't fit before the day was the abruptness of his emails, even even then I've had shoots that went fine with photographers who were poor communicators. I'd spoken to him ahead of time, gotten all the necessary info, and nothing was wrong until 3 hours into my journey up to Scotland.

I think I've spoken to Paul before but we haven't worked together, I'll bear him in mind next time some a**hole ditches me in the middle of Scotland.

Thanks babe!

Correction, I'm available on the 20th but not the 22nd.

Thanks!
