Hope I am not intruding. For me there are few options-- I can only do it in warmer weather-- such as a park. Beyond that go to meetup group shoots to get established. Don't know how good you are. I can't do thatb as I ususlly work nights and weekends. Someone asked about cold weather below. I once read an article a few years back where the photographer who was pretty established - showed a picture of his model who he was taking images of/ she was in a bathing suit and there was snow.

He said something like he keeps them very warmed up until the last minute, gets them out, takes the shots and puts them back in the fancy looking vehicle ( it looked like an expensive luxury car.) he gives them the VIP treatment.

As a social documentary photog I maintain no studio. I work in the field or at the subjects house.

My current M.O. 2015  - $100 an hour / $400+ a day honorarium on average. No phony models acting the part, I have to pay $ to real subjects and for the interviews.
