Jam tomorrow….
….what a wonderful phrase, for all you budding photographers out there, ignore at your peril otherwise you’ll end up with statements like:
The additional incentive to all involed was that if we get a record deal your work would become very high profile to which you would get a lot of work off the back of my name.
The above quote (is real and not made up) is of course rubbish, no unsigned artist is guaranteed anything and it’s the photographers work which gets them commissions not false promises.
It may hurt sometimes to say no! but in the long term, you will benefit.
Your work has a value regardless of who is paying for it, if the client really wants you, then they’ll pay, if not, move on and don’t reduce your fee on the basis of these false promises, if you are tempted with the above offer, remember you have been warned !
