i need a photographer who has a good location to shoot in, (as well as decent equiptment!) is that too much to ask? it's almost time to re-submit another set, and i've had a bitch of a time finding a good location and photographer.
i had one lined up. i went to meet with him yesterday, and it went kinda shitty. it sucks cause he's a great photographer, with a fabulous lighting set up. the real hitch in our giddyup is that we're having a hard time finding a location. he doesn't have a studio, he's remodeling his house, my house is the size of a shoe box, etc. and i was thinking of asking one of the local bowling alleys if i could shoot there, but he said it would be a pain in the ass production and then something to the effect of, he's an important photography professor and showing artist and that he's not sure that he wants his name attached to something as seedy as suicide girls. ass.
and he's kinda pervy anyway, and he was such a snot about it that even if i found the perfect location TODAY, i'm not sure i'd be happy with him shooting me. i dont know that i could make with the flirty eyes to somebody that offended me.
grrrrrr...so anybody know and reno/bay area photographers? please help.
