pilot, just to clarify
Please understand that you don't get paid by us for taking your gf picture to go onto our filing system.
Until the advertising agency or film unit ask for your gf to appear for an advert, then and only then will you be paid. If they like your gf, she will go for a professional photo shoot at the studio, and they will tell you what newspaper/billboard/film she will be appearing in.
Your girlfriends picture is only on our files. It is not used for anything other than to show to a Client in the hope of getting some work for her. We do not pay you to be on our files. If you want her picture taken off, we will remove her. But we do NOT pay you to have her picture on file.
Hopefully this has clarified things for you.
Regards,

Pilotsontherock - you obviously don't understand what an agency does: we don't pay you for your photo to be on our files. Goodness, why would we pay you for that? In the real world you have to get your own portofolio, and that usually costs a few thousand riyals. We help you by taking the pics ourselves when you don't have the money to pay for a portfolio. But we don't use those pictures for anything other than to show a client in the hope of getting you work.
Also. You only get paid when a client books you for a photo-shoot. If the Ad agency doesn't book you, you don't get paid. Simple. And the Ad Agency can't book you if they don't know what you look like, hence the need to take pictures. And believe it or not, sometimes you're just not Advertising material... perhaps that has been the case with your girlfriend. We cannot dictate to the Client who they will choose... we can only provide choices (pictures to choose from) for them. For every one person chosen for a shoot, perhaps 10 to 20 will be submitted... so that mean a lot of rejections. Your girlfriend has been rejected - not by us, but by the various clients - but this is the nature of this work.
Taking a hundred pictures will only produce perhaps 5 decent shots - the rest are deleted (digital cameras work like this)... and those are the shots we show to the Client, to help them decide if you'll be good for their particular advertisment.
Many of the folks on our books get chosen because they have professional photographs, but this is costly. So every now and then we get a photographer to come along and do photo sessions for a 10% of the normal price. This is up to the individuals if they want to take advantage of this. Because we have to provide financially for this too, we don't give these pictures out to be used for other agencies. Why should we pay for someone else to get the benefit of our hard work.
We always pay within one month, as stated in the trinity website. From one week to one month is the actually statement. It has nothing to do with whether we've been paid by the client either... we pay you, even when we've not been paid ourselves.
For Mila: Lastly we have had some folks who are very beautiful or handsome, but they turn up for work late, they are not well groomed when they arrive at the set, and they are sulky with the camera and the art directors. By acting in this way, the clients are refusing to work again with such people. So its not all about having a pretty face. Work ethic is important too. Without it, there is no work!
If you need any more clarification, call us. You know our number.
A.
correctly. people dont get stunned when you read this and sound very good job to be true and earn money is short way.
they will asked you to have many photos sections and you have to pay to have your photos taken as their reason is for your own port-folio then they never give you these photos.. and then they might hired / used u for some event, they will not pay you till another months (happy waiting) as their reason they client dont pay yet.
Everybody is right and Everybody is wrong, its depend where you stand
they recruit people but never pays. they took 100 shoots of my gf and promised to pay her but they never did.
