Question from a photographer...

We don't sell our images, with 40+ updates/week, we can only keep up with supplying our sites. Once in a while I will shoot something for a friend, like this weekend's tranny shoot. I'm not making a profit off of that, it's more of a backscratching situation. On top of it all, I am not comfortable with handing out the model's id to purchasers. My girls trust me, and I'd hate for someone down the line to be irresponsible.

Probably the easiest solution is to shoot a variety of pics and either use content brokers, or offer a package to webmasters directly. Your girls are usually cute, and there's plenty of people looking for enough material of one girl to put out a single girl site.

You could also team up with an established program or network, and run a co-op deal for a new paysite.

I guess I'll just have to give up the idea of making money shooting content.
I'll just stick to doing content for my own site, and doing weddings I guess.

Thanks,

Bill

Bill, we're not trying to discourage you. Do what makes sense for you. For some people, doing what they love is more important that attaching a high dollar to the product. You can make money selling content, but it's more of a quantity over quality scenario these days.

If I ever get married, wow is that a flock of flying pigs outside of my window, that's what I want a photographer that shorts porn and weddings. Should make the family wedding album much more interesting. This is us at the wedding and here we are at our honeymoon fucking…
