I see a lot of ladies copying some shoots.
Are they running out of ideas or do they find inspiration in our shoots?

Yes I know a photo shoot takes a lot of work and thinking....

So is this negative or positive if someone uses your ideas?

Let your own imagination run wild...
you have a month or two to plan your shoot.

It takes a lot of planning to stand out on your shoot today because there's been a high volume of ladies coming into this industry.

I know everyone is trying to make a living.

Some might not like my opinion on this matter but sometimes ladies prep their shoot and without realising it they did a shoot similar to that of another lady Take for eg. Your motor Bike shoot first stormpie did one then I think it was Azizi that also had amother motorbike shoot and now you I'm not sure there could have been others in between. So sometimes it happens however if you take the 3 shoots done they all stunning in sexy in there own way. So if another ladies wants to take her koekroller and do another shoot then leave her be as long as she is not copying you shoot your outfit your style it's all cool leave her be it's her perogative to choose what she wears in a shoot eish we don't own ideas like we don't own Name's.

But that's just me.Nothing wrong with a bit of healthy competition lol it helps keep us at the top of our game ;)

I did a bike shoot in 2005 or 2006 I think , Sally took the pics - awesome pics, even if I have to say so myself. Guess that makes me the grandmother of bike shoots or is that the godmother..lol..unless there were others before me with bike shoots on esa, then that will make me a copycat by default I guess?

Maybe I should upload those old pics to my personal gallery, but ja the body is a bit older now and no longer have a tan, so may not be such a good idea.

Personally I don't really plan shoots in advance, I decide on the day of the shoot, an hour or so before the shoot, what I am gonna wear for the shoot.

Azizi shoot was stunning.
F## that girl rocks a bike... won't even talk about her ASS on it!
I've seen it the other day.
No I didn't see the other ladies shoots.
I will have a look... perhaps I get some inspiration from someone else.
So we can say in all honesty it's a inspiration thing??

Ahh Chas my sexy Maaitjie, ja Ek help altyd waar Ek kan.
Ma jy rock jou shoots.
Jou skoene met die panty is vir my baie mooier inelkgeval ;-)

Punters don't care if girls have similar photo shoots. Either you look nice in your photos and I want to book you or not. Fullstop. A lot goes into a punting decision. Area of operation, services offered, looks, body type, hourly rate, hours of work, ROAR, etc. The fact that another girl also has a similar photo set has zero impact on a punting decision.

@Meg, what impact do you think someone stealing your photo shoot idea or getting inspiration from your photo shoot has on you? Maybe I can understand your concern better if you answer this.

Lol so you holding the record!
Well done.
Thing is I don't go look at someone pics unless I think it's hot or they posting on the forum.
I only noticed pics when I go look at my updates.

What impact on me?
None at all.
I don't offer the same services as another lady.

Like I said I don't have the time to look at other ladies profiles I'm To busy.
It's just someone asked me about it last night.
To me it doesn't matter, if they inspired by my shoot then I did a good job, or they think they can improve on mine ;-).

Not only are some of my ideas copied, but even my poses as well!
Dit pla my glad nie, cause I know that there can only be one Claudia Gentlemens Delight lol!

I may also have inadvertently copied another, though.

I think it's healthy that we inspire each other with our shoots!
