I've been shooting for 6 years now and have shot over 250 models and a kill fee is something that has never been discussed. I wouldn't care if the agent cancelled, the model cancelled or even if I cancelled a shoot, I ain't paying shit because of a cancellation. I do work with very amateur girls so perhaps there is a difference there but it still seems very odd to me that you would be required to pay because of a shoot that was cancelled by her agent. Perhaps, you are the one that should be getting paid for wasting your time by setting up a shoot for a model that wasn't even going to show up.
perhaps *kill fee* is a generic term for *i had to pay my crew and all the shit not covered by the agent due to a flake*?
