Strange that the OP was killed nearly 3 years ago but there's no In Memoriam badge on his profile. Does MM not do that anymore? Perhaps the mod team is unaware Sep 14 23 04:52 am Link Jason McKendricks wrote: They still do, but you may have to message them. I don't believe they are aware. I've messaged them regarding a photographer and model who had passed away. They don't know unless someone tells them. Sep 16 23 10:57 pm Link j_francis_imagery wrote: I see both. The no-nudes to nude, I think they just switched over and never updated front page from 'no' to yes. Those who say yes, but don't post any full nudes, well they just seem to tease and maybe leave the option there for the right photographer. I've seen a few of our best photog guys, who seem to have exclusive nude explicit photo rights to certain models. The girls will have few to zero topless or nude photos, but when you check credits and see some specially chosen photographers she has done,,,,there may be a dozen superbly done erotic nudes with him but with no other. Thus, yes, she does shoot nudes. You never know. Would not hurt to ask the 'no' models if they are sure, before assuming anything.

Photographer may be listed by her, but not one pic of his work is shared here. Then there are models who shoot dozens of full porn videos elsewhere under other pseudonyms, and you'd never even know unless you happen to run across it during various Google searches of her work, that 'accidently' I'd guess, reveal their secret life. I know one model here who was very pissed that I ran across her 'other' work that way. Sep 21 23 03:58 pm Link Ken Marcus Studios wrote: 100% This!
Dec 07 23 07:27 am Link I posted a casting for a nude model a few years ago and a model who replied had checked no nudes on her profile. When I asked to confirm she shot nudes, she confirmed she did but marked no nudes to cut down on GWC photographers contacting her. We had a great paid full day shoot and two days later she shot with me a couple more hours for free.
About two months later she spent about two weeks shooting and traveling with me through several states out west. Including nudes. Still keep in contact and hope to do another travel photography trip. May 21 24 01:18 am Link I shoot nudes, just not with YOU! Jul 17 24 09:06 pm Link You are dealing directly with amateur models, here. They get tired of all the requests for nudes, so they claim they don't do them, on the site, or, they got burned in the past, and don't want to be called for that anymore. That is far from the only inconsistencies. They also say they don't do nudes, but that they do glamour, which has plenty of nude exposure in the genre, boobs, crotch, and fannies. They also say they don't do nudes, and they list erotic, as a genre, which goes much farther than simple nudity, into bondage, BDSM, crotch close ups, masturbation, etc. So, it is OBVIOUS they do NOT understand the genres, or they simply choose to say they don't do nudes, when they do. Your guess is as good as mine.
They also fail to fill out all of their profile, leaving sizes incomplete, etc. So, take what you can from the profile, and recognize you have to confirm all of it, before booking the model. Just proves that if you want the truth, you have to speak to them directly, and determine what is real. Yeah, it gets to be ridiculous, but you have to do the work to find out whether they can actually do a project you want to do. ONLY they, have the power to commit to a shoot. I suspect some of the photogs are just as bad, about providing the profile info, as well. Mar 08 25 08:53 am Link It may be because of a non-compete clause in a contract with a previous photographer/publisher. I've seen it frequently with Playmates. Often, they're prohibited by contract from appearing nude for anyone but Playboy for a term prescribed in the contract.
