QUOTE=Matt 26z

(This paragraph was pointless. Besides, it reads like industry discussion board text.)
Really? I thought it was important. I don't do general, and they need to know that. If someone wants to stand naked in front of a camera and get paid, forget it. I expect models to say "I don't do that..." and I tell them "I don't not do that so sorry..."

(Is this in your autobiography too? They don't care.)
I started this because it's something I want to do, not something I need to. Yes, they need to know this.

(I see your lips moving but I don't hear you talking. At least say you offer competitive wages.)
I offer competitive wages.

(May want to explain this a little more clearly.)
I talk about contract modeling in person. Only so many details I can give when this is my first shoot.


(I wouldn't openly talk about this deposit policy unless it comes up. There is no way to make "pay me to work for me" sound good.)
You forgot the read the next line: this fee is refunded immediately during the shoot. They don't pay anything, I'm just covering my ass.


(Could cause confusion. Sounds like you want to meet first, talk about money second.)
I do. I'm not telling anyone what I pay them until I see some good pictures and I hear from them. I prefer meeting in person over disclosing unsure facts.

(More industry stuff. Strike all of it.)
Only repeating that I don't do general. I'm not letting models boss me around. This is not their shoot. This is my shoot. I can find other models if people don't want to do certain things. If they have stipulations, we need to work them out, but if they flat out refuse to do my niche style, they're out.

I just needed to explain myself more.

Thanks
