Editorial by Juan Carlos Lopez After some shooting trips the 2014 Calendar will be ready, cover model and all the rest of the models will be selected this month. On other fronts, I have noticed that many models are running into photographers who shoot for a print magazines are trying to get them exclusive. As each human can make their own decisions let's look at that business model and list pros and cons. Hardfitness sponsors competitors as they have a type of exclusivity but its does not stop the model from all the shoots, just a certain type. First step to discuss is money, he who has the money has the power. So if anyone is giving you a good amount of money, sponsorship for example then its a good idea to follow what they tell you. So now let's look at this business model: Pros: Cons: So in general it's not a good idea, if you really want to be a model and make money as a model from shoots, this is the wrong approach. Go with the money, its likely you won't shoot for too long and you could be passing up a lot of money. If you are in this for fun then perhaps its ok. But look at your bank account and also if you have debt then you know you need to go with being paid as a model. JC |
