I am an aspiring model in New York. I paid Jerris in advance through paypal to do a photo shoot that he held off and kept rescheduling for weeks. We finally did the shoot which was very unprofessional and in someone's run down apartment and I was promised 6 high res edits for my port, but I never received any photo's at all. Jerris sent me a link to view the raw images and said if I wanted any of the photo's I would have to order them. I've tried contacting Jerris for 7 months now and he will not return my phone calls or refund my $595. Jerris took advantage of me because i am aspiring and he only caters to professionals so please BEWARE, I don't want this to happen to anyone else. If their are any lawyers out there reading this please contact me so I can sue his dumb a**, I have every email from beginning to end of what happened which is copied below: ME: On Sat, Oct 9, 2010 at 12:42 PM, wrote:Hello, my name is C**** and I'm an aspiring model.
