When models get home from an abbywinters.com shoot trip, we want them to think “Those were some of the best shoots I ever made, and I had a great time making them!”. If they do, they are more likely to come back for more shoots (and do a good job when they do), and more likely to refer their friends. That results in satisfied customers (and more paid work for Shoot Producers).
We often get positive feedback from models, for example consider these snippets from various models;
- It was really great! I would even call it a really excellent experience. He [Shoot Producer] was very professional but also relaxed. In those situations, things should be like that!
- She really made me feel at home. She told me to not feel stress and I could tell her if I had any worries.
- He was very gentle with me. He was offering me breaks. It was at no point awkward. He was open to my suggestions, I was open to his suggestions. It was really really nice. I really liked working with him. We got along really well.
- I describe it as a place where females can be comfortable with everything. There are no bad surprises! Very professional.
- I am used to working with a female camera woman and this was my first time with a male. It was interesting, but I never once felt uncomfortable or like it was creepy.
- She was so respectful and never touched me. She told me the rules and didn’t let anyone else around on set. She always recommended that I rest a little and she didn’t want me to be tired. She was excellent, five stars, 100% amazing!
- We talked about topics. I told him a few things and he would ask me questions and it was like nothing. Like I was just talking to someone, to the camera. It felt professional.
- During the shoot itself she was very calm and she did not rush me. My impression of her was amazing. She was very sweet! At some point I told her that she has a “Mom” vibe… She kept telling me that she was available to help me. She helped me get food from the grocery store to cook at the apartment.
- He was a perfect combination of laid-back and professional at the same time… Trademark!
