| I keep seeing all these modeling ads... and i'm interested. but i don't want to get ripped off. and I've never actually modeled before, so i have no clue what all is involved. does anyone have any info on this? | |

| Not sure, but the best thing to do is call and research the agency and company HUGS | |

| yeah, i actually used to model here. it's not worth it unless you want to do modeling as your career. the male photographers just want to take half naked or naked pictures of you and that is sometimes the only way you make money out of it. i got started entering a contest at www.misscoconuts.com. i'm not sure if they're still doing them or not but it's an every day calendar girl contest. i didn't win but i got pretty good publicity out of it. i got to be a ring girl at an MMA fight and i got $100 for doing that. the only way to go if you are just starting out in the modeling industry is to go to www.modelmayhem.com and create an account. meet photographers, hair stylists, makeup artists, and other models in your area interested in doing TFCD or TFP (time for CD or time for prints). it's exactly the way it sounds, you trade your time in exchange for a CD of pictures or the prints. then the only thing you pay for is gas to get wherever you're going. i have some modeling pictures on my myspace if you want to check them out. sam cardenas is a photographer a little north of san diego, like 30 mins and he is AWESOME! he does TFCD and he does professional pictures and is more into the fashion aspect of modeling then glamour (which is mostly lingerie and getting naked). but, like i said, the only way it's not really a waste is if you have the time to go to shoots every weekend to build up your portfolio, if you want to do it as a career, and if you don't mind investing a little. hope that helped, if you need anything else...just ask! | |

| no, it definitely makes a good hobby. that's why i did it and it has always been a dream of mine. now i don't have the time to do it! if you do it, don't let photographers kid you by saying you have to pay for a portfolio...especially if you're just doing it as a hobby. you should definitely go to www.modelmayhem.com like i said before and create an account and network yourself that way. that way you can say you're specifically looking for photographers who do TFCD/TFP. let me know if you need anything else, good luck! | |

| oh on modelmayhem....if you go to "forum" and click on "events" that is how i went to the shoots that i participated in also, you can get critiqued among other stuff in the "forum" part. you can also go to "casting" and look for casting calls in your area. do you mind if i check your model mayhem site out once you have all your info. on there? i know the photographers and other artists look for specific things on the profile....thanks! | |
