Short story: Me and Scorpions

I was met with Scorpions in 1999 Budapest-Hungary. The band was there for a life performing in some festival, plus they were promoted the new album Eye to eye…

I was invited to the party by Universal Music ( Polygram) couse i have 2 lp and 7 maxi single ( as an solo artist: David)

After the party, i was invite them to go somewhere else to have a good time in the nightlife of Budapest. Rudolf and Ralph Rieckerman ( former bass player)  said: yes ok why not :)the others Mathias, Klaus, James was too tired…So we get into my car and went to my friend restaurant - Hotel Charles -to “warm up” and talk a littlebit. I remember i was calld my friend Charles from my car: - Hey Charle its David…do you like Scorpions? He said: Yes of course…but you call me in the middle of the night to ask this??? no Charle i was calld you couse the half of the Scorpions is in my car and we want to drink something in your Hotel…and he said: common is not a good joke..I’m very tired for this…blabla…Ok Charle be in your hotel 20 min…will see…

After i was show them the greatest monuments in Budapest, than we went to one of the famous Disco in Budapest ( secret)… in the car we sing together “Blackout”…in the morning i was toke them back to hotel…nothing special…it was a great evening. We speak a lot, dance all night…so it was fun.

…nothing special well :)

I was grow up in the 80’s. When the World Wide Live double LP came out in 85 we went crazy by Scorpions! my wall was full of posters of Scorpions from the magazine Bravo…was very hard to get Bravo in these days because of the middle of communism…my father old stereo went wrong because i was listen Scorpions so loud! We was screamin and singing Blacout with my uncle…we were imagined he was the drummer, i was the  rithm gitarist. I saw the Scorpions tour movie World Wide Live minimum 1000times :) …and few year later i take them to party :) common! Nothing is impossible as Rudolf said in his book…

I remeber one thing very clearly from this night: I was ask him, why they come with us all night? Couse we don’t know eachother…we never met before….and Rudolf Schenker said: I feel the energy in you guys…….

So Rudolf, you already made our life in this night! My wife Krisztina David won the Fitness European championship 2004 and she won the Fitness world Championship in 2007…if you have time read her bio here

Me? I became one of the most wanted glamour-fetish-bodybuilding photographer….

News: my son just arriwed in okt 28. 2009 :) Dominiko David…i was bought a lead guitar and made my own demo studio with Mac system, so we don’t stop! I still feel the heat inside! We workout every day, live our life in happyness in one of the most beautiful place in the world The Costa Blanca, Spain :)

We are very proud of you Rudolf! I think we are “wearing the same shoes”. When i start singing and wrote my songs in 98′ i was lost all my friends. Couse they said I’m crazy, i lost my mind, i never will be on stage, i can’t sing so good etc. all people was soo negative around me! But we did it! I know the feeleng to stand on stage front of 15-20.000 people and singing my best song :) and see them jumping with me ….

It was almost the same happened with me, like you in your young ages.

So shortly, I’m waiting your online store to order your book!

Wish you the best for you and your family!

If anytime we can help for anything, let us know! Or just want to visit the beautiful Costa Blanca in private…

take care!

Answer to the models

Dear models,

Thank you for your nice emals what i got every day. First of all, I’m working for money, thats why i do my best no matter you are pro or amateur. There are no differents between the private portfolios and magazine covers quality. All images what i make is my reference also. I can’t soot for underprice or for kindness or … u know what i mean.

Yes, of course i can help to be in magazine, or get the cover :) Why? Because the magazines pays me too as a photo artist!

How its works:

Fashion models, portfolios: Come and we make your best portfolio…than i will send over to the magazines ( if you like) and if the magazine interested, we will shooting for them new photos for serious money… both of us!

For bodybuilders and fitness models: Forget to go to the Flex mag or am.curves and say: hi im the best model…shoot me :) ….no way! they have no time for this! be ready! take your best shoots with you what we made before!!!

Or wanna get some sponsors? Show them what you got! email them your best shots! tell them that you have hundreds of great quality: bikini, gym, workout, fitness etc… photos more!

And please…do not pay for shit photos! There is just a few good photograper around…yes i know everybody can buy cameras and equipments but hey….i can buy basketball but this is not means: i can play!

And last but not least: just money makes money…so pay me, get you best shots and be a star!

Gabe David

Answer to be a magazine photographer

Hi everyone :)

Just got a lot of mails every day and peoples asked me how they can be a magazine photographer. So the first thing what you should know, that the magazines already has many good photographers, and they got hundreds of new bios, references in every day from newones. So they are full with photographers and do not try to get appointment to show your reference, because they don’t care! Straight enough? But hey don’t worry here is your chance: NEVER ENOUGH WITH GOOD LOOKING GIRLS! So the fastes way to work for (for example Playboy) is, that you made your photoset with some very nice, attractive, good looking, interesting lady, and show to the magazine! But be careful! You have only ONE chance! So I recomend you that you have to make your pro photoset with professional equipment! The Canon, Nikon highend digital cameras are very good but NOT pros! No matter what they said! The pro stuffs is for example: Mamiya Pro, Hasselblad with highend digital back, or you can shoot for large or medium format film ( for me the fuji provia was the best film ever).I shoot for Playboy in Mamiya RZ 67, and i also use Mamiya 645 pro for other magazines. Was diamond sharp :) Don’t worry! You don’t have to buy those stuffs for 30.000’s of dollars! RENT IT for your professional photoset!

So, you made your pro photoset, the lady is great,  the material is very good. Now you can going to the magazine office, to show them. If they are interesting, they will sign a contract with you and with the lady for this photoset…and hey don’t forget to say, that you have many more great model for the next photoset! :)

Ok here is why it’s works all the time! First of all, that you present a full project, ready to print. ( very important that the lady have to be interesting person! Some good story, etc ) So again the magazine gets a full project. They don’t need to making casting, pay the model agency, pay the photoproducer, rent a place for shooting, pay for make up, pay for hairstylist etc.

But BE CAREFUL! Never ever leave your content without signed contract! Shoot in some very nice scene, location! Make backstage photos and backstage videos! Make contract with the model right after the shooting!

hope is help, please forgive me my bad english. And don’t forget: keep going!

regards Gabe David
