In NYC I used to always hear ' I had a go see, sorry'. Mind you this was the day after the shoot was supposed to happen.

Gotta give her kudos for being honest with you...... that's funny as hell. Sorry, it just is. I don't think I've ever seen anyone be that damn honest. lmao

GFY has been long overdue for a flaky model excuses thread

I do think it's plausible for a 24 year old girl to be skating at 8pm in the summer though. Also one thing about abrasions is that they may not show up until the next day, when they are fresh they don't really show up... so it could have happened earlier

Well, she initially texted me about the mishap. So, my initial thoughts were that if the skateboarding accident really occurred, she'd at least have the professionalism to call me. But, she was afriad I'd hear the bullshit in her voice so she only texted. I actually just ignored the text. Didn't reply to it at all. Just left her mull it over and see if she'd call me. She didn't, but about an hour later she sent me a cell phone pic of her hip with a big bruise on it. Who knows, she could have grabbed it off the net.

When I got back to my office I emailed her that I was "so sorry to hear about her injuries" and she emailed me back that she feels terrible and "really needed the money" so she'll let me know as soon as it's healed.

So, it's 50/50 on whether it's the truth or not. I really don't care. I have my own little studio. If a girl doesn't show, it normally costs me 30 minutes of my time. And, I really expect about a 40% no-show rate so I just chalk it up to "cost of doing biz."

I've heard lots of excuses.

My best friend just went into labor, I have to get to the hospital.
I just got asked to go on an overnight trip for my company.
I lost my cell at the bar last night and didn't have your number to call you.
My BF/Best Friend/Mom/Dad/Grandma got in a car accident. Not serious but I have to head to the hospital.
My dad informed the family last night that he's gay and I'm just too freaked out to shoot right now.

Hmmm, that's all I can think of for now. I try to block them out. :-)

you're right. even though i was mad, it was just too funny to be furious over. her two friends who were booked for the same day, one had a mother in the hospital, and the other had lost her ID. I asked why she couldn't take an hour to work and earn some money while her mother was in the hospital. Deer in the headlights response to that one.
That was not a good day.

well to add to those girls history. After interviewing them we left together, and they didn't even look before crossing a busy street, almost getting hit by a car. I cautioned them!
Yep, you guessed it, a few months later one of them got hit by a car. Hospitalized with concussion etc, but fortunately healed back up.
I think that speaks a little to their sophistication, not able to look before crossing a busy street

someone mentioned models not showing due to time of month. yes, but have you had to clean up a nice chair because one DID show up, and you found that out halfway through the shoot

now what to do with that footage

there are a few times when I would have rather been given a lame excuse and a no show.
would it be hijacking this thread if we added "worst shows" to the "no show excuses". well, too late.

and maybe someday, I'll be smart enough to remember to tell them to turn off th F'n CELL PHONE in their purse you didn't see, which is SURE to ring right in the middle of the shoot !

ah well, guess that's what happens when you have amateurs in front of, AND behind the camara
