The NYC community has gotten so militant about this that the offending posts are usually flagged and removed within a couple hours of being posted. These were in my RSS reader, all from the last day:

I\'m getting married on the evening of December 27th about an hour outside of the city by train. (Will compensate for travel) Looking for a photographer with an edgy style that has either experience in fashion photography or is in the process of gaining experience. Please contact me if you are interested.

Yes, that was posted as \"no pay\". So we get train fare for shooting your wedding!

need a photographer for my wedding. under a tight budget. looking for an artistic photographer preferably in the fashion field. Looking to keep digital files. Please email me if interested and if you have any questions. wedding is nj on dec 27th.

So this is obviously the same person reposting after their previous post got flagged and removed a couple hours earlier. Now the gig is worth $400, score!

I am aProfesional male and I am looking for a photographer for headshoots, also I like to have few artistic nude pictures
let me know your rate and availability


There\'s usually one of these posted every day or so, though it frequently asks for female photographers only. But at least they\'re offering to pay!

We are launching a new fashion website this Fall 2008. The website will be very innovating, fashion-forward and will focus on emerging designers. We are looking for Fashion photographers, Videographers and producers to help with LA, Miami, New York Fashion Week and other city wide exclusive fashionable events.

This is an excellent opportunity to get involved in a ground-up venture, to be fully immersed in the fashion world, to get valuable experience, exposure and to build beneficial relationship. The gig is unpaid for now, with potential for compensation in the near future.


I think this one\'s been posted, flagged, removed and reposted almost daily for the last week or two. It\'s a common motif: help us get our business venture off the ground, we\'ll take care of you later when we\'re rich!
