like most things, there's no right or wrong way to shoot, and there are extremes on either end in how you conduct it.

i put dave way on the high end in terms of how he treats his models. honestly, he goes a lot further than is necessary.

but there are guys out there pissing in the model well too. i've seen shooting locations that *I* was uncomfortable walking around in, and i cant imagine a model getting naked in there. we've all heard stories of even well known producers who would do things like lure a girl out with a plane ticket, but then knowing she had no way to get herself back home basically make her do whatever they wanted. and let us not forget the old "you'll get paid when i get paid" business model.

i suspect most of the better well known shooters live somewhere in the middle but closer to dave than the other end by a long ways. heck, i'mt not a big time shooter, but we do provide NICE robes, some sort of fruit or veggie platter, water and sodas, and always a pristine shooting location.

however, i dont know ANYONE other than dave who will reserve a parking spot for a model.
