“A girl's career today doesn't have the same kind of life span, whereas it used to be a collaboration and a partnership and it continued. Peter Lindbergh still uses girls - like, look at Amber Valetta - so there are some photographers that have relationships long-term with models. I also think that the industry can't support the amount of models that exist right now and therefore the relationships between photographers and models and even the clients is short lived.” ThinkingLooksKindLongStillsUseTodayUsedGirlTermCareersSupportIndustryAmountRight NowModelsPhotographerUsed To BeLong TermCollaborationPeterPartnershipClientsAmberShort LivedLife Span Author:Michael Flutie
“America has always been the most fertile ground for models - and they were always exported to other countries. When Eastern Europe opened up its doors to the rest of the world, a lot of the girls that were basically working there for $1 a month realized that if they were beautiful and that they could go to Paris and work for $1,000 a day versus the $10,000 that the other girls were demanding. So it created a huge imbalance in the financial structure of how clients could budget out campaigns. The market became flooded.” IfsWorldCountryAmericaBeautifulGirlDoorsHugeMonthsModelsEuropeStructureFinancialCampaignsBudgetsParisOther CountriesClientsVersusEasternFertileImbalanceOther GirlEastern EuropeFertile Ground Author:Michael Flutie
