She asked US to do this.
We found the location.
She showed up with a photographer.
I took a couple hundred pics with my camera.
She offered us copies of all the pics her photographer took.
Me, SWWilson77 & Ironass had a pretty good time.
Some times, when it sounds too good to be true - it's true anyway.

If you're just starting your portfolio out, offering to take free pictures for someone is a win-win situation. You get people to model for you for free, and they get free pictures out of the deal. It's not that uncommon.

Hey Guys,
Read your posts. Understand your concerns but this really isn't a sales pitch or advertising. Just thought a few of you with great bikes might want free images taken.
It is not a sales pitch. She really is just looking for a few guys willing to show up and get some shots for her portfolio/promo pieces. Photographers actually do it all the time it is called editorial and promo work. When they need new images for their port or new promos they get teams who need new work for their ports. Models, Hair/Makeup, etc. do it for free. Really not that uncommon.
