Dr. Charles Christopher, PhD/Las Vegas Art Gallery/ USMF/ United States Affiliated Art Gallery does not pay for work done fradulent business Las Vegas Nevada
"Dr Christopher" has been placing ads in the Las Vegas Weekly for approximately 3 years. The ad says "Female Glamour Nudes earn $1500 in two shoots and one portrait"
He is NOT a Photographer, he has NO studio and NO Art Gallery.
Problem 1)- His contracts
He emails Models applications and demands they are filled out fully or you could be rejected for his Art project. This includes a survey he says is for "educational and documentary" purposes asking about adult escort work, and family information. His contracts are illegal (and immoral) since he is not licenced in this business (see below)
Problem 2) His Companies
He is NOT licenced to be in the Photography/Agency Business. According to his contract, he will take 20% of any model business. He says PARIS, PARIS/UNITED STATES AFFILIATED ART GALLERIES/LAS VEGAS ART GALLERY are all a division of ZENITY FOUNDATION. However, Zenity Foundation's licence was revoked in 2003 and it was for a Medical Placement Business!
When asked where (physically) is Las Vegas Art Gallery, he refused to give that information. When confronted that ParisParis doesn't exist, he changed the name on all documents to United States Affiliated Art Gallery. His address is a PO Box on Tropicana Avenue and he shoots out of the Rio Hotel or at his home on Ridge Heights.
Problem 3) Non Payment
Every Model I know who has worked for him, has NEVER gotten paid. I also did one session with him a while back, and never got paid!!
