So I've been getting alot of good pictures with modeling, but I recently decided that I wanted to do a coed shoot. The only problem is, how do I go about finding a guy!? I know it sounds really silly, but I don't know how!!

All you have to do is put a statement on your profile (hit the "enter" button on your keyboard occasionally... paragraphs are your friend) that says: 

"Hey, all of you male models clicking on my photos and drooling but
never saying anything to me:  I need one of youse to pose with me for
some photos.  PM me and I'll get back to after I've decided whether or
not you're worthy.  Thanks!
"



Trust me, you'll have more messages in your inbox than you'll know what to do with...

If possible talk and meet beforehand.

I did my first coed shoot recently and it was one of my best shoots. It was a total blast and I was very comfortable.

Your main profile, yes.


You can see from the hits on your photos that people are stopping by your page for a look.  If you put it at the top with a bold print ATTENTION!! then you might catch people's... well, attention before they skip straight to your pics...

If you have a favorite photographer, ask him/her if they know any quality male models that would be good to work with.  The photographer will probably jump at the chance to do the shoot and provide the introductions.  Just cause they are male does not mean they can model or would be someone you would want to work with.

yeah, I was just going to ask a guy friend of mine, but I feel like it would be a little awkward.

Do a search.....find a few that work......meet with them and your photographer and see what you can put together.  Shouldnt be that difficult.

I can recommend a few...you're in my neighborhood.

though male models are a little off. they're worse than photographers sometimes. so get drunk before the shoot.

like i am right now.

Just post as you did or contact directly models that have a look you would like to work with. But it's not always that easy to work with someone new. Sometimes you don't know until you shoot. When you don't click, it's obvious on camera.
