Photographer vs. Model

I had to click 'Not for me' today on a set by a model who I follow and who I think is gorgeous. The problem was that her set was shot by another Suicide Girl who consistently overexposes every set she shoots. There are definitely some girls who are very talented photographers as well as stunning models, but not every model should become a photographer as she transitions out of modelling. Being a good photographer requires not only an eye for a beautiful setting and the ability to frame the shot but also the willingness and commitment to learn the mechanics behind apperture, shutterspeed and ISO. Point and click on automatic might work for your holiday snaps but it is not good enough for serious photography.

shalil:
The "funny" part is that they actually buy a lot of overexposed sets, and there's a team photographer who always does that

I think that everyone has to have a starting point (can’t wait to see yours!) and that we should be encouraging her growth as a photographer too. You can’t learn if you don’t get out there and try. @shalil ;)
