That would explain the snapshots on his site. My only question was how he could make any money with shots like that, which obviously have no value. I think you've given us the answer.

: I found out all of the information on the "photographer." It turns out what he does, in short, is gain the models' trust, bring them overseas for a "project," then take all their money and try to get them to do pornography. I shouldn't be too surprised I guess. I know he posts job offers on college websites throughout MA and God knows where else, and that over 100 girls have contacted him to my knowledge. If there is any way to make this a sticky post I would greatly appreciate it. I have contacted the police and my school officials on the matter, but every bit of precaution helps. Here is the article about what he did:
