"Crikey, there are 1000s of guys on here who have started threads where they are offering their photography services to single ladies and the ladies of couples (never to random guys for some strange reason). I'm surprised that you've not had to put up a second post saying that you've been inundated... This is true! 😂😂😂 I suspect it may be tricky to get exactly what you're asking OP. There's a few pro togs here. There's a fair few talented amateurs too. Like the actual professional masseurs on here, most will choose to keep business and pleasure separate. Most pros will want to keep their studio workspaces completely professional. You might have more luck planning to do a shoot in a nice hotel instead. Plus once the shoot is done the tog can leave and you can enjoy a nice night away. 🤷♂️ Obi | |||

I suspect a lot of those professionals don't have a camera leave alone a studio unless you count their back bedroom and iPhone. | |||

"I'm not in the London area, but if you plan on a trip to the south west give me a shout. Yes, I'm a professional (as in it's my full time job), and yes I have a studio (not a home studio!) Highly unlikely Mrslooking will find me attractive though!" • Is it a prerequisite for her lådyship to find you attractive before she engages your services? | |||

"Hawt lol... lots of photographers actually do not have studios if they are not into studio work, but then they probably wouldn't know what they were doing with lighting | |||

"Pros will want to select and edit the photographs, which means you’ll be giving a stranger control over compromising photographs of yourselves. Make sure you communicate a lot, choose carefully, and have a have model release contract that details explicitly where and how the photographs will be used, and what steps will be taken to ensure your privacy. A contract isn't a guarantee, but it’s better than nothing. If you’re expecting the photographer to simply hand over the photos at the end of the shoot, then you won’t find a professional to agree. Many of us will work for free - we do it because we’re passionate about it - but no pro will simply turn over the files at the end of the shoot. Also remember that a professional is trying to make a living from their work. The assumption that we will jump at the opportunity you’ve outlined is misguided. Ask yourself, what’s in it for the professional photographer? Hope this helps x" We provided and left with the SD cards when using Erotogger. There were so many great photos which needed no editing. But I have decided that I'd like him to edit a few to smooth out a few literal wrinkles, lol The whole meet and shoot was easy and amicable to arrange. He genuinely wanted us to feel comfortable and confident. We'd absolutely have another shoot with him, and would happily allow him to edit all the photos for us. x Lo x | |||

"Read the original post!" Sorry, I have just reread the OP and note it says shoot in a studio. Ours was not in a studio. | |||

"Any proper Pro Photographer , would reject such an offer I was a Decent amatuer Photographer, and i know how much money I spent on Gear, Lights , backdrops ect a Proper Pro has too much respect, for the Thousands of hours it's taken him to Learn his Craft , and the tens of Thousands he has spent on Gear , to simply give it away for Free, just so he can get a Wank .............." I was going to say the same thing, unfortunately. The fantasy element crosses the line a pro/semi-pro would consider crossing. Perhaps arrange the fantasy separate to the actual photos being taken? | |||

" This is a good point, in the shoot mentioned, I made sure that I clearly pointed out that both card slots were empty before beginning. This is the first time that I agreed not to use my own memory cards, as I usually like to have full control over the edit, but sometimes you have to respect others wishes and compromise. Actually, as a photographer it was a good exercise because I couldn’t rely on the editing process. I shot raw + jpg with a black and white profile, which allow for future editing of the images if required. | |||

" I would politely disagree with both of these comments. There is absolutely nothing wrong with both enjoying the creative element of the photography and the sensuality of anything that may happen afterwards or even just watching. I get immense pride from hearing how much my images are appreciated. I don’t charge for my photography at the moment simply because the exchange of my photography skills for the enjoyment I get from the experience is worthwhile currently. If that changes then maybe I’ll start seeking financial compensation for the images. | |||
