Advice on Modelling Rates

[emmanuelle]

I've found that model rates are regional. Montreal 'circut' girls don't get out of bed for less than $300, even if it's a pretty girl lingerie scene.
We usually shoot the unknowns, plucked from college campuses, and waitresses at local diners -lol. I tell them it starts @ $30 or $50/ hour, and goes up from there. Fortunately I can use the occasional non-nude scene, so it really is up to her comfort level. Depending on what is required, and the model's personal boundaries, it can go up to $150/hour (we don't generally shoot anything extreme though). Some other local producers will pay the girls a day rate of up to $1200- and those poor girls earn every dime the hard way|shocking|


I am REALLY tempted to set up "JohnAbbotGirls.com"
(local college where we get many of our models)

I think you should look at the first few shoots as an investment to see what you can sell the work for.

Bottom line is it depends on what you can afford to pay and remain profitable. Pay too much you go broke, the girls have no work, pay too little without a good explanation the girls find out and you are left witha bad reputation.

I hear from UK shooters that "Magazine" quality girls are getting around 300 GBP a day as a minimum for solo girl. Girls good enough for Escort, Razzle will command less than girls good enough for Mayfair and Club.

Lesbian and BG raises the prices.

Yeah you got it Paul.

Thanks 4 that info. It mostly confirms what one of the girls (who did some work for Nuts) said. Think I will just say at the moment I have no idea on prices and try to get the girls to sign up on a 50/50 profit sharing basis for the first shoot with each one. This could bite me in the Ass if one of them turns out to be in demand though.

Thank you, Paul. Take care of yourself. Just because you surround yourself with beautiful young naked women, doesn't mean your a god. It just feels like you are.

I can be *very* persuasive. They are only people at the end of the day, just a bit tougher skinned than most and a lot of them are *very* lonely. So long as you dont hit on them for sex all the time I find they make great (and very loyal!) friends. Especially if you control part of their income...lol

Thanks 4 that. Problem I have is that the girls all know each other so if I fuck thefirst few shoots up from the cash point of view then it will be a case of 'one out all out' and a hookers union dispute!
