he most likely has a studio and he does alot of the "production" of the shoots meaning he pays a hair stylist, a make up artist, a stylist, buys props for the shoot, he probably retouches the pics or pays a retoucher, etc...

If he is doing all that , that makes sense and I just saw the comment about the wardrobe

If he was just flicking it up and then doing light photoshopping I need to quit my day job.

if half of his clients are big, instead of charging by size just charge everyone 1k.

Unprofessional
Charge everyone the same price. They can easily flip it so he comes off as a pervert.

if you ask some of these people they think black male photographers should be paying them to take their pictures. :unimpressed:
i got so much more shyt i could say about this topic in general. :mjlol:

1000%

They think you’re just an Instagram photographer lol. All these stipulations. Brehs pull up with this.

:krs:

“OHHMAAGAAWWDDD LETS WORK TYLER”

:mjlol:

I’ve had to prove myself to black models way harder than white models tho.

Few of the black models I’ve shot tho, looked out off of the strength. Stayed on code. A bunch of others tho are on that :mjpls:

Unless you have a :wrist: buddy, that’s the cheat code.

I'm a photographer. alot of obese women think they deserve the same stuff as models who be in the gym, watching what they eat, etc...I have no sympathy for them girls. He charges what he charges.

Also, the biggest thing i've learned is a black male photographer is we usually are expected to be like a free resource to these "models" while they use us as a stepping stone to the white photographers. SHE WOULD NEVER PULL shyt ON A WHITE PHOTOGRAPHER AND FOR THE MOST PART SHE WOULDN'T EVEN APPROACH A WHITE PHOTOGRAPHER BECAUSE SHE ALREADY KNOW THEY PROLLY WOULDN'T EVEN TAKE HER MONEY. that white photographer is not going to want his/her portfolio to be show them as the "plus size photographer". They think black men are beholden to some kind of social justice FREE service shyt, or even worse..."he black so he like big girls so i can get what i want from him".

:camby:

And let me say this, there are "curvy" models and there are sloppy obese chicks that just decide to call themselves models one day.
Yeah man. It’s a dirty game out here in these streets. I’m a shooter too and you’re so right. Had a girl reach out to me when I started and used my pics to get to the next level. I was just starting out so it’s whatever. That helped us both grow though so that’s why I’m not too mad at it :yeshrug:

Fat models should be banned. I went to the target website to order some ear pods and the first thing I see is a fat bytch in a bathing suit. A two piece at that. :hhh:

You’d never hear average brehs demanding that they be given a chance to be models.
