Hi geek and Geekettes
Today some chancer sent me this email
""I know this incredibly short notice my original make-up artist let me down and has now been a mission to find someone that would be able to help me
[FONT=Trebuchet, Verdana, Lucida Grande, Sapir Sans, Tahoma, sans-serif]I am currently studying photography at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For my Final Major project I am recreating the four elements using make-up and hair [/FONT][FONT=Trebuchet, Verdana, Lucida Grande, Sapir Sans, Tahoma, sans-serif]styling[/FONT]
i am looking for a hair and makeup artist to help me recreate the four elements
and wondered if you maybe interested in helping me with this creative shoot.
Im not able to pay a big amount for your fee for the day but am offering £30 and food and drink for the day .
The shoot will take place on the XXXXXXXX June at xxxxxxxxxxxxxx at xxxx
I have two models that will be doing all four shoots so when im doing one shoot the other model can be getting ready and then swapping over.
If this is something that you would be interested in please let me know".
WTF!!!!!!
I dont normally get 'upset' by things like this however, had the person taken time and looked a my website before sending me this email she would of known that I do hair/makeup for a living, am professional, done commercial/editorial work.
Thus I would not work for all day and do 8 hair/makeup changes for £30.00, a pack of pringles and a tesco meal deal !!!!
I did though politely email back saying that she might have more luck trying one of the beauty colleges and that I'm worth more than £30.00 and I dont take food as a form of payment due to my bank manager, suppliers and my taxman/woman do not except food as a form of payment as they preferred to be paid it cold hard cash.
rant over!!!
