Rob Sims Photography Jessica Savage, MAV TV, Bikini Allstars Modeling, photography scam Internet

I was contacted by Rob Sims Photography via one of my modeling websites. He directed me to his assistant, Jessica Savage, indicating they were interested in me for a shoot.

I initially got a bad feeling when I spoke to Jessica Savage the first time on the phone. She kept calling me "beautiful" and "hot" and it immediately sent up a red flag for me. I have worked in the modeling industry for the past 10 years and I have never been called pet names like this by anyone who is truly a professional.

Next, Jessica Savage indicated that in order for me to be one of the 100 girls they scouted in their "nation wide" venture, I would have to "register." Registration to shoot with a photographer? I have shot with probably 20 or more photographers and I've never been asked to "register."

Come to find out, this "registration" is really a $500 fee I need to pay via paypal, in order to secure my spot. Jessica Savage even suggested to me that if I couldn't afford it I should put it on multiple credit cards or hit up my grandfather. WTF?

So let me get this straight. They scouted me for their MAV TV show but I have to pay for it? Riiiiiiight.

Over the phone I asked Jessica Savage to please send me the link to their site and some more information about Rob Sims Photography. She never did.

She did however, IMMEDIATELY email me the link to paypal so I could "register."

Obviously I wasn't going to pay a stranger over paypal for a shoot I knew nothing about. Additionally, after looking over the "TV spots" they had gotten for other models that now appear on YouTube, (that they assured me LOTS of people would see-- that look like the beginning of a porn movie) I wrote Jessica Savage an email thanking them for the opportunity but declining. 

She wrote me this email back:

XXXXX,
Thank u so much for taking the time to "research" some of the test shoots and submissions from girls to bikini-all-stars. I agree with you about the videos and the models that u found there. I am constantly redirecting people to our real partnership channels with google. That's what I hate about the internet you know? Wish you could have just waited for me to send the correct links. I'm busier than u can possibly imagine so I won't apologize.

With your "real job" in marketing I'm sure you've heard of google... Youtube.com/fitmodels is one of our stations where actual fitness cover model clips are. And even with youtube it is taken out of context. I know you haven't seen MAV TV but u will drive yourself crazy now with more educated research since u have egg on your face.

Also look for 'Teen Fitness' magazine this summer with 4 time gold metal winner olympic athlete and winner of dancing with the stars--Shawn Johnson on the cover....flip to the credits and you will see my name right there next to Rob Sims as assistant photographer. She was such an absolute sweetheart to work with!

You can even see the pictures of she and I and many many other cover models Rob and I work with on our websites and facebook etc.
I'm sure you will enjoy kicking yourself at the loss of this opportunity and your lack of research. I'm used to the attitude I get from cheap jaded models that will never ever have a chance without a real connection like the one we offer but for what I get paid in my extremely "lucrative" business I like to laugh about it! City to city we go all over the world trying to discover girls that have what it takes and in between gigs we shoot famous models and olympic athletes you could only dream of meeting darling.

So, I wish you luck! Fix your eyebrows and really tone up. You are already deleted and make sure to delete us as well! When u can afford to have full HD programming instead of basic TV you will see me all over it as the spokesperson for the station, with the top models we produce and the actual videos that you didn't take the time to research! Make sure you point me out to everyone you know as the b***h you had the unbelievable opportunity of talking to on the phone with once that tried to "scam you" lol Thanks again!
