You make me think of 2 girls in particular, we'll call em' girl A and girl B.

Girl A is an alright looking, but not great looking person. Bad attitude, and it shows in the pics or vids. Unfortunantly when I met girl A, I was just moronic enough to tell her what I would pay for what. After that, she expected that much every time we shot, wether the shoot was shit or not, and it usually was.

Girl B is an amazing specimen, 100% what I've been looking for. Because of girl A, I never told girl B how much I would pay. I just asked her how much she wanted per shoot. Girl B dosent want nearly as much as girl A knows i'll pay. Because of this I get a model who is getting what she wants and it really comes through. She smiles, laughs, all that shit that matters. Plus, Girl B only asks for about 50% per shoot of what girl A knows i'll pay.

Because of this, I shoot girl B alot more then girl A, and get much better media.

To girl A, this is a job, and all I'm good for is the cash.

To girl B, this is a gift, and i'm a good guy for giving her what she wants.


Think about that before you run that list past any girl who is willing to model for you. What you might be willing to pay $400 for, she might be happy to do for $200 until you tell her you'll pay her $400

Hope I was of some assistance. Good luck in your project.
You got it! That is very well said and I have known a dozen a's and b's since I have been doing this. The pricing structure is posted to the various model networking sites I am a part of, so they can go and see what I do and decide themselves whether or not they would be down to help out with my site. If I meet girls face to face, at a club, party, etc. I do approach it very differently.
