I first started modeling when I was 18 and I have enjoyed every single moment of it so far. I always knew it was something I wanted to do and I am just so glad and happy that I have made a career out of doing something I absolutely love! I know everyone dreams of having a job that they enjoy doing so much. From going to being bullied at school to now doing this, is such a massive step! And I cant tell you how much it has made me so damn confident and to not give a f**k and to actually just be myself. Anyway, that's a little about me :) Here are some tips and advice for all you new models that are new to the industry.
Your Modelling
All models have their own levels, rates and how far you're willing to travel etc. Never let anybody try to take advantage of you, as you will come across people/ photographers that will try their luck because you are new to the industry. Always stick to your limits and what you are happy with doing, and make that clear in your emails you send out. Also, always be yourself and have fun in a professional way when you're shooting. I always think it makes the shoot go a lot quicker and makes you feel at ease :) Another thing, choose carefully when working with photographers, especially because you are new. You will need a decent portfolio to start off on getting you some good paid work coming in.
Photographers
You will come across some you love working with and some you may not as much, I personally just see it all as work and just get on with the job. You may also find because you are new, photographers will try to take advantage of your rate and offer you way less. Don't be fooled by that. Always stick to your rates that you think is right. I remember I had this done to me when I first started and I did not give in to them. If they want to shoot you that bad, they will pay your rate. You will also come across some sly photographers that will try and up your levels. Again don't be shy to say anything. Be strong and tell them exactly what you're happy working with and what was agreed. Hopefully, you won't come across this, but I know I have and many other models that have had similar issues like this. Just to add, there are a lot of nice photographers out there too, who are always awesome working with. But remember to always stick to only what you are happy with doing and be strong.
Levels
Only you know what you're happy working with, so don't let anyone else say otherwise. If you want to go that little bit higher with your levels, then let that be your own choice and decision, not anyone else trying to take advantage and making it for you.
Pay
You can earn some extremely good money from the industry, but again it all depends on what you're happy working with. You can earn all that amazing money from either photo shoots, dancing, webcamming, phone chat, selling your content, and more. There are lots of ways to choose from :) I went straight into adult and have never regretted doing solo & GG porn as I have made lots from doing it and have made it to where I want to be. But you may be different and choose other ways of making your money :)
Travelling/Shoots in general
You may love it or you may not. Again some of your work could be abroad, so please always be so careful and cautious. Check what other models have worked with the photographer/company beforehand. Always check out references before anyone you decide to work with. It is very important and for your own safety.
People along the way
You will meet some amazing people along the way, most people I have met in the industry are lovely and really easy to get along with, which is always so good :) They will also help you along your way and give you tips and tell you who to work with or who to not work with.
I hope all this information is useful to all you new models out there and that you enjoy your modeling career to the fullest! :)
