Ok, some people bitch, some people leave, and some bitch and leave but I love Net-Model.

I am here to source models and nearly all of those that I have worked with have come through Net-Model. In the past week I have spotted 2 new members who are local to me, one of which I worked with yesterday and another who I am talking to about working with soon.

I love the fact that all of my correspondence with models is in one place and easy to go back to and check up on a detail or two

I don't post in the forums often but do read some of the gossip and often get a smile from it and find most of the technical posts useful and informative. On the rare occasions that I have posted a question the response has been friendly and helpful.

So, I get what I want from here, I am happy and I am here to stay.

Oh and here is a pic from yesterday’s shoot with new member Ruruu

Far better than Purestorm in my opinion...I don't know but it must be easier for models to join that website than photographers.

Someone said Purestorm only accept 1 in 3 applications and I've applied 4 times.

I usually do a search there and then message them on FB when I want to book someone, if they can be found easily.

I have to agree. I have found more models here than all other modelling sites together. It is my home. Its where I look for help and offer it when I'm able. I'm not shooting at the moment but hope I will again soon. I like to think I will be able to contact future models through this site.

Whenever asked this is the first site I mention to others.

Great shot and forum post David About time we had something more positive

Hope your well

Yes, It works for some of us...

A lovely thread and a nice shot.... I'm not going anywhere either...

NM is a bit like an old comfort blanket, its there when you need it and it makes things better..

Being fairly new to the scene and only really working with TF models at the moment, I have had no success on here?

I have only had one model reply to me, others who have said that they are looking for TF shoots who I have contacted have just failed to reply!

I have sent the same messages as I do on Model Mayhem (which have received replies, and is where most of my models have come from), so I don't think it is the style or content of my messages, that said, I do like the site, and will persist.

I've also had more shoots booked from net-model than any of the other sites or facebook.

me too.

I've shot with some great models, and made friends too. what else could you ask of a site..

Let me know what you think, I appreciate all feedback

Im fairly new having been a member since Feb, Ive had a few TF shoots from NM, but most of my TF work has come from other sources.

Im a member on another site and recently needed a model for a shoot so put up casting calls here there and FB i got 5 replies here, 3 on the other site and 6 from FB, but the model i worked with came via word of mouth from another model.

Most of my models either TF part or paid have been from here, 1 from the other site 2 from FB and 3 from word of mouth (TF),
Im getting more contact via FB now and in a way thats sad but seems to be the way of the world, but thats also the only place ive had no shows from.

Most of the models ive worked with are on all sites, but as most of my first contact with them has been here, as a result ive worked with some great ladies and have some more booked, so NM will always have a place in my life, as if it wasnt for NM my first shoot would never have occurred and i would never have seen the "beginner friendly" Add from Jess (NHG) which taught me a hell of a lot in such a short time.

As a result ive met some great people not just models but other photographers to, some of whom im happy to call friends, that id never have met without stumbling over NM

Constructive Criticism welcome but be constructive...

same here

I love NM, I've made lots of friends here, worked with some great photographers, got some lovely images.....

Most of my work comes from here, although I am on all the usual sites, and I do get some work from them, I've no intention of leaving NM, sorry everyone but you're stuck with me

By the way, it's great to see a positive thread being started, and a lovely image too.

Thank you Aychee
