Corporate Photography Pre Meeting At Hong Kong

Today I am at Hong Kong, and have a quick meeting with an old client. They haven't commission me for a long time due to their budget issue, they tried another Hong Kong based photographers(bad), then a more expensive singapore photographer(send by their sg hq). In their last assignment the singapore photographer produced hundreds of photographs for them, but none of one photograph can be use... so finally they had to use iphone selfi for their PR materials. After a quick meeting with them, ba ba ba... the conclusion is... although they like my work but their budget is not allowed to hire me :D WTF.

reBlog: Modeling Tips: What should I wear for my photo shoot?

Watch the video in Youtube Just now there is a korean prospect who want me to do her modeling portfolio, and our communications is stucked because we cannot provide her wardrobes. I don't know what agency she is dealing with, and feel so strange that there is no clear instruction and or sample photographs for her as the guideline. We are professional photographer, and not another chinese style art photo studio, we don't have sets of fixed styling you can pick and cosplay with.
