It's perfectly clear why he would be interested in you. You're far and away superior to the run-of-the-mill girls he has photographed. But I can't see you bending over and spreading so he can photograph you at the overlook over the waterfalls like the one photo.

I don't know what the guy's market is that he seems to be so free with his cash. But it's highly unlikely that his photography is going to support the big dreams of his come-ons.

If you're still tempted, ask him where the photos will be sold to pay the expenses. As Allen said, very few of us can afford to pay relocation expenses for models. Sure, Sports Illustrated flies gals all over the world once a year. (Along with crews and shooters.) Sure, models go to Europe for a season in Milan, Paris and London. But those situations seem to have little or nothing to do with this guy's "market."

The guy may just be harmless and rich, but there's no way to know that.

You were right to question what's going on. Good luck.
