Low budget amateur photographer claiming to be professional published photographe

I am a model, to protect my identity I will not give my name, but I will give my story.

I found DJ Subsonik (Peter Lopane) Facebook. He contacted me telling me I should come see him for a shoot and so on. I did not ever reply. He kept email me insisting a do a shoot with, tell me I'm stunning and I have what it takes and that he would even shoot my photos for FREE!

I decide to go for this shoot, why not, it was free. Well it was a huge waste of my time. First off the photos were average quality, if not horrible. I also realized that besides him not having any real skill, he insisted in photographing me in my bathing suit and a location, that i later found out is where he shoots every other model. Thats right, he shoots every girl in the same out door locations, he doesn't even have a studio. He says he does but no one i know has ever seen it. he says he prefers to shoot out doors, ya whatever!

On top of that, I had a few of his photos in my portfolio and when i went to some modeling agencies they practically laughed at me for the photos that he took of me, i was so embarrassed. They told me to work with a real photographer, and get a real portfolio done and come back to see them.

Then he told me to do a great job for him and he would consider me for big named magazines. (Which he doesn't even contribute to or work for.)

I am worried that a lot of girls have been scammed by him, and more will be. Even if its free girls... its a waste of time and his photos are crap.

I have been on many tests shoots and TFP shoots, and with a lot less clothing, sitting in more suggestive poses and totally trusted the photographers. I was not even concerned because I knew that I was safe. With Peter Lopane, it was not a safe environment. You could feel the energy. He creates a mood that is very uncomfortable. A professional photographer should not be flirty!

I have since deleted and thrown the photo he took of me and paid real photographers for real photoshoot and my photos are amazing! I have since signed with a major Montreal modeling agency.
