Models could be missing out here.
When I see a stunning image, beautifully taken and beautifully posed I click on it. Often I see it's by a named photographer but no name nor place it was taken for the model. So I look at other shots on that togs portfolio and see if the name is attached to any other shots of the model. No. Then I go to feeedback and see if the model has said anything, often, no. So a model I'd love to offer work to goes unaware.
If we are networking on a site would it not help models, and photographers, to name who they worked with and where and leave some feedback every time, (positive only and lets all stay friendly here)?
OR are they jealously guarding their models, so only they can work with them?
