Finding Models?

[bethany138]

Any suggestions on finding models? I really should have no problem with this since I was a very busy model only 6 months ago, but now I seriously don't know how the photogs found me. Ugg.

Anyway.... websites, advertising suggestions?

TIA

Where are you based?

?? I'm really looking for online options. There are no modeling agencies around here.

Try www.onemodelplace.com

I knew someone who found a model though there, he seemed happy with how it worked.

I have definately exausted my options on omp...which I am very familiar with. I was looking for something smaller...maybe just a small forum or something... or tips on how to get people to model for you...lol.

thanks

After the bump comes the grind.
If you're not getting enough replies or the one's you want I could move this to the General Q&A section and see if that's any better.
Just let me know.

I usually just offer them photos from the session. Start with friends and family. Put an ad in local newpapers and websites. There are all sorts of people looking to be photographed for free.

Though it's not totally bad advice.

What do you need the models for? Practice? Commercial work? What do you want them to do? How much experience do you want them to have?
