OK here goes, prepare to laugh at my expense! I book 2 models who both want to do a g/g shoot - not my normal stylee, but they are gorgeous, so what the hell. The shoot is booked for 1.00 today, Fri 25th.
1.00 Thursday I ring the models (after 50 e-mails each) to confirm. Model number one who is 21 years old says her dad checked her e-mails and doesn't want her doing it so pulled out. Model two says everything perfect. So 8.00 last night I confirm a replacement for model one - all back on.
Friday 8.30 am get a text and e-mail from model two to say "oh no, I knew I would be coming on this week and it's just happened", so it's off again. If you knew you were due this week WHY BOOK IT!
So I cancel the replacement model, and as usual offer her a cancellation fee. Thinking model one might be taking the p*ss, i text her back to say ok, g/g is off, but we'll shoot some topless and lingerie, and she says that's fine....I repeat my pre shoot instructions of "no bra and no tight clothes for red lines".
12.00 I pick her up and we head over to the studio. When she comes out of the changing rooms guess what....BIG red bra lines. I ask her why and she says "I don't know why I put the bra on cos you asked me not to". WTF!!
So here we are at 2.00, 1 hour into the shoot, not a picture taken and we are still waiting for the red lines to go.
And despite these things, she will still expect a great reference I am sure! Should I be brutally honest on the reference, or be nice to her, because at least she could be arsed to turn up?
