I recently decided to stop doing topless for a while but since i have i have noticed i am no longer getting many job offers and not able to apply for most castings as there topless .... so i was wondering where do i go from here and is this business all about boobs and bums? xxx

No it's not. There are lots of talented photographers working with models producing outstanding pieces of work for fashion magazines, advertising and art photography where there is no nudity involved.

Unfortunately for you, there does seem to be a lot photographers on this site and many similar sites shooting "boobs and bums".

Where do you go from here?. Keep looking out for photographers on this and many other sites like blogs, Facebook, Tumblr etc that are producing work that you like and contact them. Whether you will earn the same amount of money, i don't know, but you just mind find someone who will give you pictures that you will love, and enhance your career in the business.

I agree with fracispierre. You are a talented model and should be getting photo shoot offers and persistence pays. The fact that you seem to be getting fewer offers is probably indicates that the sites have a mix of member photographers from novice amateurs to experienced professionals, many of whom are only looking for boobs and bums!

I like texture in my images, hence I try and stay away from boobs and bums, because if I get texture in those something has gone horribly wrong

Lets face it.... Boobs and Bums (or any other part of the human form) are great subjects to photograph and get all artistic with.
I get most pleasure in creating imaginary themes/sets and shooting the model to be part of the image (the model is not the main subject), whether the model is clothed or not is dependent on what i want in the finished work.

I am sure there are many opportunities for models, without having to take all their clothes off... but maybe not as many, or as well paid.

I am sure that a model of your calibre will not have any problems in finding work.

Linzi,

Get back into some of your alternative work, i know Steve from Legacy thought you would be great for alt fashion work but alot of clients they work with do not like to use models who have done boobs out etc. Yet you havent done full nude so still plenty of doors open for you, your very beautiful

Best wishes and good luck.

Thank you all, and thank you for your kind comments i will be sure to take all advice ... it's great to know it's not all 'boobs and bums' and great photographers like yourselves don't just want that ... i don't really mind about the pay don't get me wrong its nice but i just love modelling.

dawn i will have to get in touch with steve

Do you think i would be best removing my topless images until the time i go back to doing images along that lines?

Hi,

I don't do topless because of my age and probably wont ever do it (family reasons)

I know for a fact that there are many photographers who will shoot with you if you don't want to go that far. I'm getting regular work through here and similar sites and I'm only 14. If you would like I could give you a list of photographers I have worked with through this site and net model.

I like variety in what I shoot, but then I take pictures mostly for my own pleasure. I'm sure there are togs like myself who'd be pleased to work with you whatever the context - I suppose it comesdown to what you're happy doing and what the markets looking for? If you are doing it for a living then there's the rub - values over choise only you can make that call Linzi.
