    Default Selling professional nude/fetish/erotic photos?

    I am a trained photographer. I have taken hundreds of self-portraits just for fun and professional practice, and they are nude and/or about fetishes I like. I have lots of Bettie Page-like photos with corsets, stockings, bondage etc. Also a lot of "vampire style," black-backgrounded nudes with lace gloves, masks, latex, fetish teeth, red lips/pale skin, cigarette pictures, whips, feet and other things. I have also various sets with a lolita theme. I am willing to take more pictures if I find out that there is a market for them.

    The photographs are all done professionally (with professional lighting and photoshop editing included), and do not look amateurish at all. I always kept them to myself because I just saw them as part of my photographer training, but now I am wondering if it would be possible for me to sell them? I am fine with selling them to just anybody, from magazines to websites and privates. I could also produce prints if there was a market for that. I mainly need to know two things:

    1. Do you know if there is actual money to be made doing this? I strip because artistic photography simply doesn't pay the rent, so I am trying to make my main profession become a bit more "commercial," and I thought nudity and sex-related things always sell after all. Do you think this could be profitable or is it just a waste of time? The great thing about pictures is that they are ageless, so if artistic photography never worked out for me and I had to keep being in the sex industry forever, these are things that I could keep selling even after my retirement age if I took a lot of pictures. But if there is simply no market for these things then it's not worth trying.
    2. Do you know anything about the law restrictions for this kind of trade in the UK? That's where I am based, and I have read various things about the strict laws about selling "hardcore pornography." But in none of my pictures there is actual penetration, just lots of fetishes, nudity, dress-up and erotism. I have actually heard that there could be a market for this kind of thing in Central Europe (Germany and France mostly), but I don't know who to contact or how to go on establishing such a business. I don't know if it would be better to sell prints, or to sell digital pictures, and to whom. I don't know how to find "collectors" or who else might be interested.

    Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance girls.
