    Lightbulb ishotmyself.com

    So I found this site ishotmyself.com. You basically take amateur artsy nudes of yourself and it pays a little. So I was thinking that maybe it would be a good source of extra income when a photog isn't handy. If I go to Guam or do other overseas travel where hiring a photographer isn't a safe/efficient/cost effective idea, I may do this on my off days. Has anyone ever worked with them or been featured on there?

    Find out what terms and conditions they place on your photos, and what rights you give up when you sell them. When and how you get paid - just once, or a % of every time it's accessed? By paypal, cheque, or bank transfer? Do they sell it on to other sites? Can you have it taken down in future?

    Is there a limit to how much you can upload? Are there strict guidelines on what they'll accept?

    I haven't used it/services like it, but I hope it works out for you.
    Get the fuck off my harbl, yo'.

    ya they're awesome. I sold a set to them for $200. Had fun doing it. The photos only appear on their site, which is cool. They don't sell them to anyone. I would recommend them. They are swamped with girls submitting sets though. Just, fyi.

    Interesting idea. The first model I ever encountered who regularly photographer herself was Kassandra Leigh Purcell. She was on Deviant Art when I first saw her work, probably 16 years old, and incredibly talented with self portraits! The minute she turned 18 though she started doing nudes and getting a lot of paid work, including some CD cover.

    There's another girl who almost looks like Kassandra's twin, but different eyes. Both of them seem to being doing well with the modeling.

    Anyhow, I think there's a market for this. What I'd suggest though is building your own website, selling 1/2 to ishotmyself.com and posting the other half on your own membership site as images "not found anywhere else", so you are building up your own fan base and direct income.
