Hey I need some advice.

I’m photographing TFP and recently had someone with whom I shot before rather I could do a photoshoot with a friend of them and some other guy.

They’ve send me some pics of them but honestly they just looked kind of didn’t really fit into any kind of style of what I shoot.

And I just don’t want to waste my time with people I don’t want to shoot with while I could photograph other stuff (I’m also photographing Concerts, Documentary, street and other genres ) but on the other side I feel bad for turning people down just because they ,look boring" or something

So my question would be: Is it morally fine to just turn not shoot with people because you think they are ,boring" or just not fitting your ideas and shooting stil? (Not just related to that situation but in general)

    Ha ha. So this makes me wonder why even mention their look? Unless of course they did have a look you prefer so you’d feel like a 6 hour (4 to drive 2 to shoot) would be worth it. I don’t think I’d drive for 4 hours to do a photoshoot unless the money was really good. And if it was, I wouldn’t care about looks I’d be enjoying the good pay.

    I think this should have been mentioned in the original post because a 4 hour drive for a model you aren’t that enthusiastic about is very different from a 30 minute drive to the same person.
