I contacted a model a few days ago about a possible shoot. Her rates were on her profile, but so as to not appear presumptuous, I asked for her total fee in case her rates had increased of late.
£180 for a half-day (Four hours) booking. :( Her rates on her profile were stated as £120 for a half-day shoot for the same levels.
Ten years ago I would have bounced back with an arsey reply. If I'm paying, I like to feel I'm getting my monies worth. Whether that be £80 or £150. So, I just deleted her reply.
Anyway, she contacted me a couple of days later enquiring as to whether I was still interested. A minute of my time & my polite declination was sent. Now, why didn't I do that in the first place? I guess I was just being too lazy. But I was annoyed...
She has just posted a cancellation, saying her rates & levels are on her profile. I don't think so...
Just to let everyone know that I'm not vindictive. I do hope she gets another booking.
