I was contacted by a female model, knowing I don't do TFP/TFCD, she said she would have sex for trade, but she has no money for shoot.
She said she has always fantasized fooling around with another women, so y not be her female photographer who will shoot her nude.

Do models do this? I feel so weired being asked this.

It's hardly a compliment, its sad.
& unless she was a model and was seen by the gal - like someone the gal had a visual thing for at least - or was asked after the shoot
After all she's not on the profile personally - she's photographer!

I think you should wait for BCG to give you his input...

His entire life rotates around your described situation!

However, I personally don't have such an experience, but you know... you are an adult, if she is serious and you like the idea, go for it.

But that's just my personal opinion... others will chime in how unprofessional this is, but, hey... most of those do photography as a side job or hobby and have their own ideas what to do.

Good luck, whatever your decision is.

Ya, that's how I get away with not doing nudes. I put out instead. So when we shooting? LMAO!

No in all seriousness, I've never offered a trade like that, nor have I ever known anyone to do so. I've heard rumors of things, but I've never personally known anyone who operated like that.

Can't wait to see all the stories come pouring in here. If you say this has happened to you, I'm sure it's probably happened to others.

yeah...maybe more than a little, but I don't know the whole back story, and I'm more in line with what Udo just said...I'm sure our photographer friend here is a big girl and can make her own decisions.

I think I'd probably have to say no on principal...let alone the fact my girlfriend would find new and interesting uses for my tender bits.

No Anjel- that they are so impressed by your images that they absolutely have to work with you and will do anything to make that happen.

Outright upfront agreed trade for sex...

For me... doesn't feel right and it's different when you "click" with the model during the shoot...

But, a barter, if the shoot is not too complicated and work intense... let's say that the model is also a licensed massage therapist and we trade for a deep tissue or shiatsu massage, or swedish... I'd like THAT idea... and I am not talking about happy endings either.

I haven't had a good massage in months... so... there is an idea... maybe I should post on Craigs List... LOL

Well, if she does go through with it - she owes us a video webcast of the whole thing.  Especially since she has seen fit to share this much of it with us!  Don't you agree?

I took it as a compliment. This girl liked my work so much, that she would go that far just to not have to pay.
By the way, I said "NO". I am straight, and I would never do something to ruin my reputation.

Britt,

Thats a moral decision- some people are more open and free with their bodies and are just as likely to spend a night with a stranger met at a bar- so why not a more practical purpose as someone who they admire and want to work with it.  Look- Im not saying its right or for you.  But you got to understand how a grownup might come to that decision without it being what you would do.

Maybe- or:

(a) she doesnt have the money
(b) paying you insults her ego- but being with you pleases her ego b/c she is desired

Yes, it's common practice, particularly in the Bay area.  There are literally thousands of women just looking for their first sexual experience with another woman, and what better choice than to get down with an anonymous woman wielding a long lens, right?

Interestingly enough, I was contacted just recently by a Lesbian Burlesque Troop, featuring the famous Dyke Dwarfs and the Letta, the luscious Labitian.  They wanted me to photograph them doing all sorts of sexual acts, mainly as they swung from swings attached to the ceiling.  The problem was they didn't want to pay.   Of course I was tempted, especially when they threw in the opportunity to get sexual favours from Lickalicous, the lead performer featuring a 6 inch tongue.  But when I say no TFP I mean it.   I have my standards after all.  And someone has to draw the line against all these chicks trying to get photosets by offering sex--I for one am really tired of all the offers.  JUST SAY NO!

Because you're a professional and you have the privilege of dealing with other professionals. A deserved privilege, you're good, and I'm sure this isn't the first time you've heard it.

There's no reason for models to pay, let alone to offer sex, when there are many photographers who will do TFP.   

Have you determined just what it is that you do, that she desires so much?  Maybe she's playing.  Are your rates very high?

what on Earth makes you decide it's not what I would do?
if not
I would not feel qualified to speak
as it is -
this is not any example of  ''open and free ''
nor does it suggest the OP is not - open and free - just because she professionally declined!!

that dull dumb lostness or lustness
lol
or energy mingling with  someone  who you havent conected with
AND just to pay for something???
that does not bring happiness
it make me sad to think of

i have every right to say so too

Hey Udo,

Oh yeah... that picture. That was the day I forgot to put on my make-up. That's the way the head looks like, just imagine what the rest of the package looks like.

Mmmmm.... adult diapers..... now that might be something worth paying for, only if you promise to wear them out and I'll promise to look the way I do in that particular pic. hehehe. Hot times baby, hot times. yikesP

Look- thats my point- the OP was asking if it was totally weird- my answer is no.  Your free to think whatever you want- as is the op and the person who made the offer.  People make different value decisions.

Soooo negative Jose.   Who knows, maybe this turns into a dear penthouse letters thread, where folks open up and share all the sex and offers for sex (TFS) they've had by men and women desperate for shots from excellent photographers.
