Extreme Skin-Flint
Sometimes you can't make this stuff up. Our "Skin-flint" for today is one spa in the Palm Springs area. You must:
1) Shoot stills and some short video
2) Competing against another photographer, who is female for "a range of insight", on the same day, using the same models
3) Have "great eyes"
4) Willing to work in exchange for trade only
5) If male, cannot use the trade alone
6) Must shoot quickly
Oh, and "...the photographer is able to work nude or top free and sarong as this is A nude shoot and the staff of -X- is also all female,top free or nude etc and there are Never any single men on the property."
Again - You MUST work nude, or (and I am presuming this applies only to women) top free and a sarong.
The ad, and link, after the jump.
(Continued after the Jump)
Until such time as the fountain of humor (which would actually be funny if some of the postings they had weren't serious) that is Craigslist ceases to publish these things, we will continue to have a chuckle at the ends to which some clients will go (and, yes, likely, some photographers too) to get work for free and cheap.
Here's the listing (until someone flags it):
