I Was contacted by MARK NIEMI from CREATIVE IMAGES AND MODEL MANAGEMENT through One Model Place. He emailed me saying he was interested in having me come by his studio (Studio 306 - 2215 S Union Street, Chicago IL 60616) so that he can talk to me about several jobs he could get for me.
I emailed him back requesting more information about the potential jobs and he said he would rather give me the details in person. He said he needed me to come in as soon as possible because the jobs were in the next few days and he had to get some snapshots of me to see how photogenic I was.
Trusting him (What a horribe decision) I went in for the test shoot and evaluation. He told me to wear very tight clothes to the shoot because he needed to "get a good look at my figure". When I arrived at theis very very shady and creepy building which Mark said was his studio I began to get real nervous.
Mark Also said that there would be a make up artist and a hairstylist present but when i got there they were not around. MArk Said they called and were "Sick" and that "not to worry" becuase he knows how to do that too. He then began to rub my hair and brush my face saying you have beautiful hair and such perfect skin.
At this point I was very nervouse because we were the only people in this "warehouse" and he was already touching me within 5 minutes of being there. At this point I told him maybe this isn't going to work out and that I was going to leave. He then started saying that he had a few jobs for Maxim Magazine, Soak Magazine and Possibly Playboy and that if I left I would never have an opportunity like this again.
He also kept saying "trust me" "Trust me". I explaind that because I was only 17 I could't do Playboy anyway. He then said that he could take the pictures now and that he wouldn't send them to Playboy until I was 18 which is like 10 months away. I was shocked. He then told me to walk back and forth and to turn in a circle in front of him so he could evaluate me.
He said that he has seen thousands of models and he had an "eye" for talent. He then asked me to put on a bikini because he needed to see if I was "Maxim Material". I showed him the bikini I brought and he said it was too 'Not sexy". He then pulled out a thong bikini for me to put on. He also joked "if you need help putting it on to let him know".
That's when I decided that this wasn't going to go any further. I told him I was going to leave and I wasn't interested in working with a creep like him. He then started threatening me saying he will blacklist me and that a I would never model because he knows all these people. I didn;t care and if I am then oh well. Nothing is worth being touched and possible raped by this overweight scam artist that only wants one thing.
If you are contacted by Mark Niemi from Creative Images and Model Management i recommend you run as fast as you can and call the police. He is a Liar and a Molester. Stay away from mark niemi and creative images and model management - don't say i didn't warn you...
