    If you can get the money, do it. My club charges 15 for a polaroid.

    If the demand is there from your customers, I say go for it.

    Sounds good but some clubs might not like that. If the house mom or manager hears whats going on they may not like you selling items in the club. Yes its just harmless pics of you but you don't want to ruffle any feathers. Make sure you dont' tell other chicks at your club that you're charging for the pics or she may tell someone. Also say if you sell the guy the picture then you leave, another dancer asks whats up with that picture, you better make sure he does not tell dancers that he just bought it from you. I know you just started dancing...but are you sure at this point you want your picture floating around. I'm not trying to dissuade you in anyway from making money...but if you want your business kept private..then maybe you should just keep it in the club...if they want to see your beautiful face...they can come to the club.

    There is always the danger that wives or girlfriends at home might find the pictures and confront their husbands--thereby leading to the loss of a customer. Maybe unlikely but possible. Also, you want to think about whether you want nude pictures of yourself widely distributed. Some girls like to keep things like that in the club--others are perfectly okay with it, and even have internet sites. So it all depends on what you are comfortable with...

    Something to consider about handing out pictures (esspecially Polaroids with you posing nude semi-nude with a customer):

    If your customer has access to a scanner, he can scan it and upload the digital version to the internet in a matter of minutes. If you're concerned about your photograph being bounced all over the big blue marble (and once its uploaded, then downloaded and saved by others its pretty much there forever), I would advise against this.

    As DG already alluded to, customers for the most part don't want any evidence of their trip taken home with them (this includes door receipt tickets, merchandising, business cards from dancers), therefore the market for what you're selling may not be all that great.

    If I were you, I would suggest it to people in bachelor parties, or if they requested it I would do it. I would advertise it around, that way if someone did confront you about it you can simply say that they requested it. But as doc pointed out, they can scan it, and it could be on the internet. I would just keep a few and wait until I was asked for it, or if there's a bachelor party that you know would absolutely want one, suggest it then.

    i think it might be a bad idea unless you're planning on being in this industry for good. you never know where those pics could end up and who might see them.

    It all depends on the club. Some clubs encourage that (and it sounds like yours might). Others frown on it. In some clubs, a pic with the dancer (polariod) is a club money-maker, with the dancer getting a split. It all just depends....

    If you're popular enough that customers want to buy your pic, then the club will PROLLY want to encourage you, particularly if you let the club (DJ, etc.) in on the action. Stay open with the manager.

    We sold polariods back stage at Pure Platinum to customers who wanted to pay $20 a pic. Of course guys wanted, so we sold. We went topless sitting on the customers lap. Alot of dancers did not want that, i understand why. Most of us just wanted to live our lives the way we wanted. Look at us today.....we have a HUGE change at guys getting up-skirt pics, as we walk by and they are sitting down on a curb outside a store for example.

    I think back then we did not think about the picture taking much (some of us) but today, you can't get rid of it....Friggin programs that make us look nude and sucking cock is a fine friggin example.

    PS i had men tell me the pictures would be locked at work. They will find a way if they want bad enough.
