I have fallen victim! I didn't find this site in time and am new to the entertainment industry. My daughter was "chosen", I signed and paid the $685.00, we did the photo shoot, and are now in the "down time" period as Bruce calls it.
I asked about payment for the shoot, and as all of you know, it does not exist. I asked for proof of the catalog publication when it comes out, and will have to wait for about 8 weeks before I get to see it.
Her picture will be put on the website in about 5 weeks. I asked for a list of his clients that he would be sumitting her photos to and all he could tell me were the number of clients and the markets they were in. He did not produce any list of any kind in writing.
The outfit that my daughter had to wear was awful to say the least. She is very outspoken and informed the photographer that the outfit made her look like a granny. You would think that for a "real" photo shoot especially for a catalog, there would be several outfit changes.
At the time of the photo shoot for this catalog, there were about 3 other couples who at the end were probably as heartbroken as I was. What a lesson learned.
