So you have decided to take pictures of naked women. Your wife or girlfriend is either non-existent, doesn't know, real secure (bi-sexual), or really money driven. With that out of the way, if you read my first article, you know some of the things *not* to do. This time I will step you through one of the mysteries of mankind, how to get hot women to spread their pussy for you.

I know money makes the world go around, but they get in front of you and clam up. THEY WILL, trust me. I will go through a typical shoot on another article, but before that I'll give you some hints on what to do first, how to get models, and how to know when it was a GOOD shoot for you.

First you need to do research on how to shoot. If you're not a photographer and have little to no experience behind a camera, you need to shoot something else before you buy someone to shoot. Trust me, even if you want the most amateur looking images (which sell well for me) then you need to know how they are shot without making them too dark to fix, or color that looks unnatural. You need to learn angles that flatter the models. People look different in person then behind the camera. Keep that in mind!! When you start to shoot you want consistency to be obvious through out your content. This isn't easy and takes some knowledge to back up the money spent. Oh yeah MONEY!!

Next, where you going to get the money to pay for 20-30 models so you have enough content to make something? No I am not going to get into overhead and start up costs, that is another article, this is about finding, shooting, and good results. I just wanted to touch on it. The models expect to get paid. I will leave it at that until the next article.

Where to find a beauteous model for my experienced lens, to develop amazing shots so lurid all sites shall come wanting to me. My last article was very specific. You want to shoot not just the beautiful girl, but the ok one as well. And remember, good make-up can go a long way. This is where a girlfriend or wife who wants to be in on the money can help big-time. We have taken a few woofs and turned them into something special. But you don't always want that. Sometimes the most interesting models sell the best. Notice I said interesting, like personality.

Before any web mistress's get upset, my wife also did all the web design and a lot more. She is profoundly my partner in everything I do, in business and out, no matter what. An amazing women, not bisexual, but definitely into making money, who I am lucky to know let alone be with for the rest of my life.

Strippers are obviously easy to shoot. Not so easy to get in the studio though. We recruit some from a newspaper ad, but mostly strippers come from the strip joint. If you do not know the owner they are hard/expensive to talk to. When you do get them to say yes, GET THER NUMBER!!! They will miss several appointments before they make it (if at all). You have to wait till they have had a bad night money wise at their day/night job, but a stripper is an easy shoot. Lots of outfits to strip out of, lots of sexual vigor. It looks good on camera, BUT they are also usually too sexual. No girl next door is left, can't do anything but the sex vixen thing with them, not believable as innocent. Quite frankly innocence sells. When you can get them, and it is good to get a few, but they are best left to just every now and then.

College girls are a JACK POT!! Usually young or young looking. KEEP YOUR PAPERWORK CLEAR AND IN ORDER!! I will get into that in another article as well. College newspapers are gold. Alternative press is in most decent sized cities, another gold mine. You will get a lot of models from these publications. You will get couples, coeds, hung studs, licking lesbians. Girls gone... you know. They exist in droves. Every one of them wants a new experience and is willing to get paid to do it on camera. This is where we find models with the least effort. We also use business cards and recruit on a person-to-person basis. Use referral money. They have friends and friends of friends who will do it. This is a real reliable way to have models show up and do well.

"I am SO nervous. A girl is coming to show me her pussy and I am going to take pictures of her. Oh I hope they get turned on and play with themselves." I hate to burst your bubble but you got a lot more to worry about then her pleasure and yours. This is money, honey, get focused. Know what shots and background you have and are going to take before she shows up.

If she is the adventurous type but has never done this before, expect her jitters to fuel a wish not to do this all of a sudden. She isn't going to be real turned on for a while if at all. Your job is to get her comfortable, guide her, make her want to do what she said she wanted to do. That's why a pre-shoot interview is necessary. I do mine a couple of days before the shoot. It makes me sure she is doing this for the right reasons. I also have a questionnaire to fill out that gives me some knowledge on who she is and what she will do for me. This is how I can get the best out of a model. And still after two years, I still get a dud or 2 sometimes.

Last thing, it's not as easy or as much of a turn on as you think. I can't stop thinking about money the whole shoot. Mostly getting the most and best images for the time I have with the models. I judge them most when I get back to the computer and open up photo-shop and begin processing them that I know if they are real sexy, kind of sexy, or a dud. Then I minus the things that turn me on and add in the sales figures and I get my total winner or loser.

The shoot lasts for a very short time, an hour or 2, but processing is a long arduous task that can take a few days or more depending on mistakes and experience. I think I must warn you, this is a job, a GOOD job but still more work then you might be thinking it is. And remember, you get out of it what you put into it.

Again, these are my dumb-ass opinions of a content producer whose life in the industry is marred by several mistakes, lots of miscues, and now I am telling you all what a fuckin fool I really am. But what the hell, you might learn not to be me. Take care all till next time. Again go by my site, I have good content for great prices, it won't hurt I promise.
