...so a model contacted me recently for tfcd. I agreed to take her pictures. To make a long story short, she did not show up. I emailed her and IMed her and no response. Then I saw her post in a modelmayhem forum that she is looking for a photographer. I wrote something like 'it would be nice if she shows up to a shoot'. Of course she turned on the tude and claimed that I never gave her my phone number. I have our chat in my yahoo messenger archive and I obviously gave it to her. She wasted my time and my car fuel.
Sometimes,I hate doing favors for people.

This email exchange ensues:

ok, you know what!? you didnt give me a cntact number so stop harassing me! so far you hav contacted me on yahoo, mm, and imodel!
i didnt even have an adress! grow the hell up and leave me alone!
i understand your upset but thats no reason to ride my ass about it !

You also have my IM on yahoo - you could have said something on that. I waited for you to log on so I can tell you the address but you never did so I asssumed you will just call me when you get to LA.
I am not harrasing you - I just wanted to know what happened to you. I also wanted other photographer to be cautious when they get contacted by you because in my opinion you are unprofessional and a flake.

Take care,

i think it really childish how you post your opinions about models on there posts to make them look bad when in reality your opinion doesnt matter

The funny thing is I was worried that something happened to you. You contacted me in the first place so don't you think you have the responsiblity to know all contact info. I asked you on Sunday if we are still on for Wednesday and you said yes. Right there you could have asked me. I just don't understand the reason why you will contact somebody and not follow through. You do understand that I was doing you a favor right? I did not have to agree to do a photoshoot with you.
My opinion does matter. Many photographers who read that thread will now think twice when you contact them. A simple "Can't make it" on my IM would have suffice.

I sincerely hope that you make it in modeling.

Take care,
Jhoneil

I make computer games so yes I am in the computer most of the time. I make a living out of it. It allows me to help models with their portfolio and I never ask to get paid. It is sad that you are the way you are. Why do you give people trouble anyway? I saw you online when I got home from my studio and asked you what happened but you never replied. What am I suppose to think of that? You keep telling me to grow up and call me childish. Maybe you should look in the mirror first.

You have a nice day as well.
