I was invited to shoot a fashion show for Floss Magazine.  As all fashion shows, it is always a great way to socialize, network and simultaneously get the the job done.  As usual, models come up to me, we exchange business cards, possibly take a shot or two and then that's it!  I usually never hear from them again.  It's odd to me because, I'd normally assume an aspiring model would want their images, confusing enough, that is what I have become accustomed to.  I have images for days of models who have never even seen them.  In my mind, photographers and models should be best friends...lol  I give my business out for a reason models...lol

On this particular day, I came across much of the same behavior, however; one person stood out to me, Prakash Patil.  His demeanor was a mixture of mild mannerism, passive yet aggressive.  A go getter.  He asked me to take a few shots of him and as usual I didn't mind.  I took the shot, we spoke for a while, exchanged business cards as we parted.  The difference about this model was that when I got home, I had an email waiting for me with his information as well as a picture attached so that I would remember him.  Professional as they come if you ask me.  Although I was there shooting for Floss magazine and that I normally don't do this, I decided to give him his images free of charge since he went through the trouble contacting me so promptly.  A reward for doing the right thing I suppose.

This to me is how it should be for an aspiring model who serious about their craft.  Passion moves them and others feel it and want to aide them succeed.  I say to many of the models I have come across, take heed, good examples are all around us.  Learn from it and keep it moving.
