Question from a photographer...

[KCat]

From a webmaster point of view, I can tell you that I've never paid more than $10 for a photo set. I don't need exclusive & usually buy bulk packages. So to match the $200 rate you're being offered, you'd have to sell that photo set to 20 other webmasters, which could take a long time. Plus processing fees, hosting etc.

Who cares if you can only shoot for them for 2 years? You'll build up your portfolio & references with girls (though strictly in the alt niche). Can you book a girl for a half day shoot, do 1 set for Suicide Girls & then do 3 or 4 more for yourself? Their restrictions are quite heavy so they may have rules about the exclusivity of the models.

As for IDs & 2257 docs, definitely get them. I wouldn't buy content without it, even foot fetish stuff. If I ever need to show it in the future, who knows if I'll still be able to track down the photographer who sold me the content?

I'm actually talking to them about that now. I'm pretty sure my site isn't competition for their site, so it might work out pretty well for me. They would be paying the models, and I could get content for my site as the same time, on their dime (hey that rymes - lol). Plus I would be getting paid on top of that.

I have been getting photos of their photo ID's but they usually only have one form of ID. I'll have to start asking for more. I'm sure in order for me to shoot for Suicide Girls, they will require the models to bring two forms of ID any way.

Thanks,

Bill
