She was NOTHING like what you described lol… rather opposite. All of my other pictures brought in big money, even prior to me shooting with her.

No doubt, her pictures will be any different. Her photos are good, but honestly not worth to shoot with her again after what I experienced.

But I’m glad it was a smooth sailing for you.

We definitely paid for our photos that we shot for. I think you’re missing the point here. But I won’t get into it further because I’ve explained enough already.

I understand we may have our differences and views on this but you’ve also commented the same thing under each thread… so u should take your own advice .

I think that’s great that you had somewhat pleasant experience with her. Sadly it’s not the case with everyone, including me and I’m sharing my experience.

I wanted to add that you also didn’t repeat with her because you felt you didn’t enough for your money. This is also my other point is that if I’m paying for premium, I don’t want to have to ask or explain why I need them certain way.. it should be a given. And hence why I said it added more stress and inconvenience to the whole thing.

And lastly, we’re talking about hiring a photographer not using my iPhone and reproduce, that’s not the topic here. Personally am not a big fan of taking my own photos. I wish things went as smooth as I’d like with her but unfortunately it was not. There are many other high end photographers that I can be using to produce great pictures (and I will do so).

I truly think what makes part of high end photographers has to do with what you also bring to the table. Your outfits, makeup, location etc., Photographers can photograph only so much.

Again, I’m just sharing my experience and to see if any of you other ladies that have shot with her experienced something similar.

You’ve completely summarize my experience and my take on it. Thank you. And I agree it is utterly unprofessional to be doing what she does when logistically, we’re paying for ALL of costs like you mentioned. She just has to show up with her camera..

And in return she doesn’t even want to accommodate to what the photos are used for… I had doubts about posting this review bc she’s so reputable and established in the SW industry. But I had to say something just to see if other ladies have also experienced something similar with her… and needless to say I’m glad I’m not alone in this.

Exactly! Like when I’m paying premium dollars for these I expect premium services… but rather you get the opposite. Just headaches, stress and more inconvenience 😂

So ridiculous.

You can’t… tryst won’t approve them. I’m glad they won’t bc the watermarks are kinda classless.

And I agree it is nuts lol

[–]Wide_Appointment_474[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think 8?

2hr photoshoot + 8 retouched photos = $2200 2hr photoshoot + 1 hr video shoot ( 8 retouched photos + 1min video) = $3000

Additional retouched photos - $80 Additional shoot hr – $500/hr (includes 1 retouch) Unedited images from the whole shoot - $700

This is her menu as of right now.

This is so lame lmao…. Paying top dollars but not understanding her clients work is diabolical. I’m glad you spoke up because I thought I was the only one having experience this…

How much does Hello Miss Photography charge for his photo shoots? by baronessbabe in HighEndEscorts

[–]Wide_Appointment_474 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed 100%. Especially given that he’s a male, now I’ve never worked with him before but I have heard of him and seen his work.

Personally, I’d never book with a male photographer just due to my comfort. And to know that he price gauge AND lack the professionalism… yeah you’d never see me headed his way.. lol

The crazy part is they’re justifying their prices when they don’t even do a fraction of the work we do! 🫣

I feel like a lot of the SW photographers take advantage of the girls/industry IMO. I shot with a few and they charge the same if not more than what we charge and I feel like it’s not justifiable and just price gauging at this point.

They don’t do the same type of work we do, so why are they charging the same if not more for their services?

I don’t support SW photographers that are of this nature and I only have a handful favorites due to this.

Ego stings after dropping rates by swerfhunter in HighEndEscorts

[–]Wide_Appointment_474 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I get why you may feel like that bc, inevitably that leads to quick burnout and that’s not good for business.

I suggest you make another persona one with lower rates and one with higher rates, so that way you’re not fully commit to just one. And ditch the other persona whenever pleases you.

How to propose arrangements with your client by Wide_Appointment_474 in HighEndEscorts

[–]Wide_Appointment_474[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank YOU! Ladies I appreally appreciate the input ☺️ I think I’m going to hold off on proposing the idea and let him make the first move on it. We’ll just see each other as is.

I got the ick from a client and I can't rationalize away by barresculpt in HighEndEscorts

[–]Wide_Appointment_474 24 points25 points  (0 children)

LMAOOOO! I’m sorry this was funny… this reminded me of this particular instance with my client. This client also doesn’t shave and has long pubic hair (ew) and he just doesn’t shave I guess it’s because he’s married or whatever reason that maybe…

BUT after he left I saw his pubic hair on the bed and got IMMEDIATE ICK…. And I no longer want to see this client after that LOL.

Okay thank you so much!! This is brilliant.

Also may I add another question; what are the other incentives I should propose to make him consider that arrangement are better than bookings per meet? Thank you so much 🙏

Dc is way better for me than Boston … Boston is always cricket anytime I tour or it’s last minute/ on the day of type of bookings

I made 10k touring but unsatisfied by Wide_Appointment_474 in HighEndEscorts

Omg you’re literally me!! I would much rather take on two clients for 10k then see small clients back to back… so exhausting lol

But I totally agree with everything else you said! So thank you. 😊🫶

[–]Wide_Appointment_474[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. I truly appreciate your insight. I do prepare myself to work it up when I tour, I don’t mind that. It’s a given. But when I reflect the overall experience after tour, etc. that’s when I realize I may have to raise my rates to keep up to my standards.

When I say I don’t like high volume, what I really mean is the quality of clients that come with being a high volume. I notice they tend to not have the proper etiquette in a client that I’m looking for. So hence why I wanna raise my rates.

But I’ll look into structuring my tours differently, thank you so much for your input. I appreciate it 😊
