Where the hell do you get models these days? It used to be that you would just go on Model Mayhem or find some chick on instagram and shoot TFP but those days are over. I wouldn't even mind paying for a chick's time, but even that seems difficult these days. Not a lot of chicks into "modeling" these days, no websites dedicated to it, etc. I guess they're all doing onlyfans or something. Any way, anyone got some tips?
>>4519752/p/ these days gets them from the animal shelter
>>4519752Unironically just get a male model, some gym fagboy will be more than happy to pose for nothing but copy of the photos in return.
>>4519752inb4>hire a hooker>no you can't have sex with a hooker you are shooting>you are fucking rapist if your soul purpose of taking pics of nude girls is to see them naked because you can't have pussy any other wayyeah we had this thread 6 months ago
Unless you are pro just shoot your gf
>>4519817You sorta need a more diverse portfolio than just one person to become pro, yeah?
>>4519781crickets you misunderstood the assignmentit’s not about photographing anyoneit’s about photographing hot women you can perv on
>>4519752I miss Craigslist for this.
>>4519844You're not gonna become pro by shooting a bunch of naked girls on your own. You need art school, or at least some kind of art community. That's what gives you contacts to hire models or shoot friends willing to model.
>>4519752you need social networkingor just know all the con/ren faire/theater kids
>>4519951>You need art school>To take tasteful noods>because muh camera is hard to press the buttons right and I don't understand how lighting is importantYou need 30 minutes watching youtoob videos and the money necessary for basic equipment. If you can't go from drop dead clueless to reasonably competent in under 4 hours of fucking about then you are special needs.
>>4520018Being "reasonably competent" in operatin2g a camera is entirely useless in becoming a pro photographer or finding models to shoot nudes. You are terminally retarded for believing that.
Facebook model groups in your area or travel to one. >Don't be a fucking creep models can sus that out from halfway across the country>Don't bang the help>Draft contracts and have them sign them it's 2026 you don't need to get MeToo'd>Bring something to the table besides boudoir and nudes in the woods literally every guy has that in their body of workBuT Sh0OgEr YOu'Re A FaT ReTaRdkay I have probably shot more nude work than everyone on this board and I have more booked. If you're not even better than a fat retarded autistic truck driver I don't know what to tell you, get your game up scrub.>>4519797Those three are all solid advice if you're not an incel, I was the one who said this 6 months ago. OP needs to find that thread I posted a screenshot of how I do it.
>>4520062What's the contract for? I'm asking as someone who doesn't want to be a pro, but just wants to take photos.
literally just get chicks through hinge. mention photography when talking hobbies and tell them they'd make a great model after they say "ohhhhh cool!!"
>>4519752Zoomer girls are a neurotic mess who think literally everything is rape. That’s why the supply has dried up.
>>4520511>everything is rapeHot
>>4519924>womenlame.get a femboy furry model.
>>4519752no lower form of photography than >le naked women posing do some actual photography
>>4521035Or, even worse, ugly naked women posing >>4520062Flickr was destroyed by boomers posting nude pictures of their disgusting pig wives.
>>4520511Oh cmon, they are are exposing themselves on the Internet for everyone to see free of charge, being vaious degrees of nude. However, they no longer need a sleasy "photographer" to do it.
>>4519752MM or FB model groups are where I find the most luck. MM you typically get some bogged travelling model pinging you every time you log in, but yeah they want you to pay no matter how good your port is.Hitting an age where it's harder to justify shooting when they all want $150p/h+ while having a portfolio of club bathroom mirror selfies, where the only prerequisite is 'look hot' and have zero fucking clue how to pose.I got fairly lucky, started shooting at the right time, shot a few professional models, convinced friends to do boudoir sets, some saw my nude work and wanted some of their own, but when the coof hit the smart ones got paid more with onlyfans, the others got bored during lockdown and got pregnant, very few are stepping in to give it a go now.join an FB group, be clear about your expectations, dont be a creep, show your previous work and a moodboard of what you want to do next. had some luck that way
>>4520081because you can't trust women
>>4521335Why are zoomers such sensitive prudes?

>>4519752become a dollfag
>>4523253Dollfags are sexually attracted to their dolls, you cannot convince me otherwise.
>>4523345as much as photographers of human subjects are sexually attracted to their models
>>4523348Do you shoot lewds with your dolls?
>>4523375does this not count >>4523253
>>4523524It's pretty tame, but I assume the answer is, yes. Cool.
>>4523253how do you emulate the look of a bigger thing when the thing is small
>>4523781like, in general?depth of field, lighting, environment (like forced perspective)
>>4520062>sugarEveryone ignore this guy, he gives the worst advice when it comes to women. He is an incel and wants you to be one too. If you are good looking you can hook up with your models, nothing wrong with it if they're attracted to you. It all comes to looks
>>4521060>>4520511millennial women back in 2016 would do it for free and not care they were nude on the internet. OF and other monetization sites existed back then too
I’m in Tx if anyone is looking for a (27) female model, I do sexy themed cosplay type photos (basic). Disc: ki77ur5elf
>>4519781I do a lot of figure drawing and also find male models a lot easier to work with.
>>4530689Hi do you like to cosplay anime girlth
Hey guys what's the best starting camera for an individual trying to get into film photography? I don't want to edit the photos, I'm just interest in point and shoot. Thanks for the advice!
>>4530689Low amount of cellulite on an ass and legs fat like theseDoubt
>>4530723The best film camera is the one that fits the lenses you want to use, has the shutter speeds you want to use and works with the lighting gear you want to use, at a price you're willing to pay. For me, that's the EOS 33. But that's for me. You have to find the answers to those questions yourself. It could well be the Olympus OM-4 for example. Or the Nikon F100.
I'm not interested in shooting thots, but I am curious about these thinly veiled attempts to get women naked. Are you virgins just bricked up the whole photoshoot? I mean what other appeal is shooting trashy girls other than your dick? Surely after the 3rd "artful" nude shoot you get bored unless the thrill is getting another whore to undress for you. Even worse if you're paying.
>>4520062Where do we see your stuff? I need to see how you use that 28mm
>>4530786People say this and then take the millionth snapshit of their dog and/or flower.
>>4530795Those are crimes of convenience. You gotta go way out of your way to book and shoot some random whore.At least the japanese upskirter are honest about their voyeur fetish.
>>4530800Just say you are old and dog shit ugly and missed you chance to shoot women
>>4530689I might be interested. what are the deets?Not on disc.
>>4530723You asked this already, and got your answer:F80 or F100
>>4531057anybody notice that F100 4x-ed in price?
>>4531058Maybe because every shitbox youtuber has shilled it this summer. Not saying they were objectively wrong in doing so, but if my (second) F90x dies, I will have to pay more to get one..
>>4530787Probably in the Sugar Thread I have a bunch of these to upload and I can't remember if I uploaded them or not so I'm just going to put them up anyway later this week, maybe even today. I'm trying to get through all of the Bonneville stuff I did and there's like 7000 pictures and it's mostly just holding down the shutter button on my D3 and D4 and letting them eat while a car goes by. My underwater work is done with a 14/2.8 Sigma EX, that photo, a 24/1.8 and 28/1.8 EX, and a 35/2.
>>4519752Model Mayhem, Purple Port, and Model Society. None of them are great. When I first started Model Mayhem was amazing. The models on there were stellar, including a lot of now-legendary ones. But my nudes portfolio was mediocre, and only mediocre models would shoot with me. By the time I got my chops up there were far less high quality models on the site. Nonetheless I eventually worked with dozens of world class models and have a portfolio that really impresses. Then in 2020 the site tanked hard. In large part because of the bullshit fake ass pandemic lockdown, and partly because social media and Onlyfans suddenly took all the models away. Now I shoot about once a year because I too cant find quality models to shoot with. I have much more success when I travel to Europe. In the States MM is pretty much useless. The tattoo epidemic really fucked the scene up too. I'm flashing back to when I messaged Leanna Decker way back in the day and she just ignored it because she was way too selective to work with a chump like me. I'm finally in the position that every model I request to work with says yes because my work and references are so solid. But there's barely anybody worth working with. Let me know if you get any new leads. The golden age may be over.
>>4532660The tattoo epidemic? Never heard of this in 2020s. But then again I dislike tattoos
>>4524576The tunblr era was truly wonderful
