Going to start posting more, I promise!
🕑 Added 2023-04-29 05:58:15 +0000 UTCI know a lot of people have told me how they are jealous of my hobby and how they wish they did it, but if you guys know all the expenses and headaches that come along with it, i think a lot of people would change their mind lol.
The first few years i did this, it was before onlyfans and the huge amounts of money models could make on there. So most of the girls i shot with, we just did it for fun as a hobby, and to post cool pics on IG.
As time went on, some girls stopped shooting because of life or career issues, and many of them didn't want their pics posted anymore, which I totally understand and have accommodated without hesitation. Once the money in OF came along though, some of the girls started posted on their pages while not wanting me to post, which was frustrating when they were now monetizing content they never paid me for, in locations and with outfits that i also mostly fully paid for.
The money that some models made from OF or by leveraging their social media is sometimes huge, but some of these models seemed almost insulted to be asked to help pay in a "collaboration". Not all of course, some of them have been the nicest and most generous for sure.
The truth is that it is really hard for photographers in this genre to make money to cover the cost of shooting, there are so many more hoops for us to jump through on paid sites than models, and it sometimes it just doesnt make sense to spend so much money on a hobby where you aren't making much back on.
Add to that, there are a lot of flaky girls that say they want to model and then keep cancelling or postponing shoots, which can mess up my whole daily or weekend schedule, and then also a lot of girls change their often on what content they want posted or not, and some of them change their minds completely about posting anything after i might have spend the day for the shoot, time before planning it, and time after editing, which i sympathize with, even though it basically wasted my time. And many of them have been just really bad with communication throughout the process. It definitely can be frustrating.
After all that though, there are some girls i really enjoy shooting with and that are easy to work with, both during and after the shoot. So im going to try working with them more and hopefully create a lot more content for both parties going forward.
If it was up to me, i would shoot and edit every day, and share that content with everyone because i believe these girls are beautiful and love when we create awesome photos, but man sometimes just so many things get in the way between the shoot and displaying the work. One day, i hope to move overseas and do this more as a full time thing, with more content creators that have the same thing in mind.
In the meantime, i hope i can shoot more here and give you guys more content, and i want to let you guys know that i really appreciate the support!

When i first started, i had to pay most of the models, but I very rarely do that anymore, and actually do a lot more shoots where they pay me or at the least help with the location cost. The only time i pay is if its someone that has a much bigger reach than me and will help me gain followers. The exception is overseas, where a lot of the girls do modeling as a job and their primary income, so i have no problem paying there.

Appreciate it man, thanks for the honesty. Is it true that YOU actually have to pay the models to shoot? Not including expenses for room and outfits and stuff
