Experienced Models in NC?

[nestle]

Anyone know any experienced porn models in or around Charlotte, NC that I can hire for a solo shoot? Currently have a mainstream (glamour, headshots, beauty/fashion) photography portfolio and would like to start a glamour nude portfolio. Probably the easiest shoot they would ever do because I expect to be adjusting my strobes half the time. If you have any contacts, please shoot me an email.

Sage tips and advice from other photographers welcome too!

LOL, what happened to the shoot?

Know parts of the ATL well, went to school down there. How's the talent down there? I probably won't mind driving down there to shoot if it came down to it.

Is that the way you see it? In my experience there is nothing more annoying to an experienced model than when the photographer is constantly adjusting his equipment while shooting. It's slow, unprofessional and taxes everyone's energy.

The implication there was... half the time they might not need to do anything but just stand there and they'll still get paid for their time. That is why I am looking to hire a model; not the other way around or TFP.

I understood perfectly. I am suggesting that you are mistaken in thinking that an experienced model will not be annoyed by waiting around at the ready on the set while you mess around with your gear, even if you are paying them by the hour as I infer that you mean to do. It just saps the energy right out of the room and the fatigues the models needlessly. So I think you are not likely to get the best results out of the models with this plan. But good luck.

That'll be for the model to decide, don't you think? While I understand your point, I am being very clear on what I want out of the shoot and I'll let the model decide for herself whether or not she has the patience to deal with it. If she doesn't then it's just the matter of her turning the job down for the sake of both of us.

lets see one was so crazy,that we changed hotels. She went off the deep end because it wasnt ok for her to be 3 hrs late for a shoot. I dont like shooting at 1am. The next one was easily 50 lbs heavier than her pics and the last one was very cute but very strange. Atl sucks for talent I travel for most of my shooting.
