I had a couple photoshoots, in the past: one with alec fasani (3 years ago) and with matt christie (2 years ago).
I hated every minute of photoshoot with alec. At that time I was a total newbie, wannabe escort and I was very naive and not assertive at all.. He made me feel extremely awkward and uncomfortable: he was touching me (!!!) during the photoshoot. He wasnt helpful with the posing at all, and the all raw images were just terrible. It was almost no single image to pick for retouching.. Finally I picked a couple and the retouching on it was so heavy that i couldn't recognize myself.. At that time I was sort of thinking that this is the norm and i have to accept this.. Very unpleasant experience with not nice photographer..
Matt Christie in contrary was lovely, his pictures however were not. He didnt listen what i wanted and in effect I had a bunch of images with awkward and uncomfortable posing were my facial expression was if I were tortured.. I know however a couple of wg who vouched for matt.. So maybe i am just THAT un-photogenic
From both very expensive photoshoots I could use maybe 2 or 3 images..
Two times I had a photoshoot with a female photographer Stormy and I can truly recommend her.. She produces beautiful sensual images, and she is amazing with making you feel good and comfortable.. She also gives you advise on how to pose, and what to wear, so even me the most inflexible and stiff person ever, look like a sexy classy minx..
For every next photoshoot I will always use her, thats for sure..
