Many ladies love being captured by the camera. Some of them have the fantasy to be discovered by a glamour photographer to develop a modeling career. The big turn on of this fantasy is to be the centre of attention of the photographers and glamour industry. Every year millions of women pay hundreds of dollars to have themselves photographed in semi-nude or nude “glamour shots” showing innocence mixed with naughtiness, playfulness and femininity to be submitted to online or offline media. But only professional photographers with experience in magazine submissions could turn this fantasy in a reality rather than an expensive and frustrating experience.
Finding the right photographer
It is important that you are safe during a photo shoot for magazine submission. We recommend to know your photographer before you shoot. Photographers develop a reputation on the glamour industry by producing work. If the photographer hasn’t published a set to a reputable Magazine or Online Publication, consider doing additional research. Ask to speak to her previous models. If they have a set of photographs published on magazines like Playboy, Maxim, FHM, or sites like SuicideGirls.com, Zivity.com, etc, reach out to the models using the messaging features on the sites or ask to the photographer to provide contact information of previous models used for submissions.
Magazine submission is not for everyone
A professional glamour photographer specialized in magazine submissions knows that being honest with the evaluation of the candidate also helps to gain respect. Based on statistics on the 668 Playmates selected by Playboy as of May of 2008, the average playmate measurement is 35-23-35, weight around 115 pounds and height average 5″6″. The average age is 22 years, and only 40% of them are blondes.
Never do anything that makes you uncomfortable
Posing for a photo shoot sounds fun but some girls could think that could be a little scary. We understand exactly how do you feel. First-time photo shoots can be intimidating if you’re not sure what to expect. If you do a glamour shoot for submissions, consider bringing a friend if you need it. That should *always* be ok with the professional photographers if they are not interfering with the photo session. Always review the pictures after the session and be sure to delete those that you consider “dirty” or “distasteful.”
Profitable business
You can start this career based in different goals: industry recognition, self-esteem, opportunities, or simply money. Some magazines like Playboy pay $25.000 USD if you are selected Playmate of the month
and $100.000 USD if Playmate of the year (plus some luxury gift like sport cars, etc, and a juicy contract)
