    Default New to modelling, rates for art nude?

    I've only done 2 photo shoots before and both have been TFCD, this guy just contacted me asking my rates for art nude.

    I've read through some other posts that have said about $100/hr but they were from 2-3 years ago. Is this still relevant?

    Thanks!!

    In the US that price is still good. Some people charge as low as $25/hr. I usually charge $100-$125/hr... & more for glamour.

    This photographer looks good, but I'd ask to see some nude work, to make sure it stays on a professional level. If you don't like a photographer's work though, don't shoot nudes with them... regardless of if they are paid or not. It's not good to have bad photos up online, but its horrible to have bad nude photos up.

    Also, make sure you have at least 3-4 references from models the photographer has worked with. You may need to contact 5+ to get 3-4 to respond.

    Ask the photographer if you can bring an assistant the first time you work with them, unless you know its a fully professional shoot w/ lots of staff/assistants. You really shouldn't ever be alone 1-on-1 with a photographer you don't already know & trust. Plus, the person can help keep you organized, hand you things, clip tags, move lights for the photographer etc. Don't bring a person you are romantically involved with to assist, just bring a friend, & have them bring a book to read incase they don't need to do anything.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    I might drop a little to $80 just because of my lack of experience. He has art nudes up on his MM profile and they're very well done and tasteful. I'll make sure I get those references and all the other info.

    Thanks heaps Kylea! You're always so darn helpful
