I am just wondering what's going on.... I've been modeling for probably 3 years now working my butt off and gaining experience and learning yet I see blonds  with C-D boobs that have 5-6 pics that aren't too great... a couple nude, some with clothes and yet they are getting paid nude shoots all the time... am I missing something?

I don't know.... not dissing blonds or anything cause I love em too... maybe it's just me... maybe I'm no fun. *shrug*

Just ranting........ don't know just wondering if there is a "in" look right now.

Blah. tongue

Yeah - I think you're right.  In the markets you are looking at - blonds will always win.  So will girls with blue eyes. LOL...

You look great to me, young'un.  I, however, have never had any fixations about height, hair color, eye color, skin color or bra size.

Yeah.... unless my metabolism decides to slow down my boobs will stay small unless I get a boob job. I doubt it will slow down.... my mom is 5'9" and weighed 135 in high school with DDs.... she weighs 155 now.... I'm glad my boobs aren't DDs but I could of went with high B/low C. tongue

I would hire you if you were closer..... I looked at your Port and find some very creative and imaginative photos and then again, there are some I would eliminate.

I can only guess that maybe your location is hurting you.... hang in there, I am sure you will get more work.

How do you know they get paid all the time? Looking around this site, I would have to differ with you. There are many people who do not fit that description who appear to work a fair amount.

I don't know why you wouldent get work you are beautiful. I just think that the blond hair big boobed thing is what the majority of men go looking for in nude models. Im not sure why (ok the big boobs thing kinda makes sense), but Id say keep trying, like I said you have a look that lots of other women would kill for. Keep up the good work, and Im sure that eventually someone will notice how amazing you are.

Thanks...

I live in Riverside.... about a hour from every photographer... 20mins from Orange, 40 from Irvine, 1 hour from L.A., 2 hours from San Diego.....

Should I edit my location.... and put LA, etc.?

Blondes and big boobs do nothing for me, but I know there are a ton of guys who go crazy for them. Just look at Pam Anderson and Jessica Simpson. How can you explain their popularity otherwise? I don't understand it, but there is just something about that combination that turns a lot of male minds to mush.

I don't discriminate on the basis of hair color, and I prefer smaller to moderate sized boobs.  And I know and respect one of the photographers you've shot with, so you're not doing badly at all.

But I guess there's a reason there are so many magazines on the average news stand portraying the features you describe.  Must be catering to that lowest-common-denominator thing...

here in the midwest it seems to be the preference with the local photographers. but then theres no accounting for personal tastes.

I honestly think thats by you making that statement you are making yourself look a bit jealous of what other people have.  If you are confident in what you have you dont really need to worry about what others have because there is a market for everyone out there.

I think the Op is very attractive, able to book work, and would make one hell of an artistic/fetish/or whatever type nude model she wants to be... and this thread was PURELY started to get attention...

Individual opinions vary widely, but I can say this:

My modeling website stands at about 14 million hits. Good looking blondes always get significantly higher hit rates than non blondes.

My unscientific guess would include:

1. Many cultures of the world are ga-ga over blondes.
2. Blondes stand out more. "Pop" .. impact, etc.
3. There are far fewer blondes than there are brown and dark hair models. Rare is more in demand.
4. Huge demographics of Asians and Hispanics are attracted to or curious about blondes.

Personally, I have no opinion or preference for hair color. I like natural, happy, healthy.

Ditto that.

Akara - I don't really have an answer for you.  I'm not partial to a particular look - it often changes day to day, shoot to shoot.  I suppose it might have something to do with the marketing of the end product, but then marketing never is really sound.

There are lot's of models (and MUA's for that matter) here on MM that I would love to bring in for paying gigs.  Including you.  There just aren't that many coming my way.

I don't get why men like girls with big boobs.... girls don't like guys with big balls!!

Okay well I am sure some do.... but that's just gross. Big boobs and big balls sweat and get in the way. tongue

Thanks but I don't book a lot of work, a couple TF*s a month or maybe 1-2 paid shoots here and there.

I usually don't have much issues finding nude work.

Paid nude work is hard to find right now unless you're really good at networking or really good at porn tongue

LOL and you say you are not jealous yet here you are saying they get work because they look a certain way and you do and you get no where?  Thats jealousy for sure.  If you want to work so bad and you think thats the only kind of girl that gets work then hell get a boob job and dye your hair blonde.  But if you are secure enough with what you have, worry about what you get and be proud that you get it because you are you.  If i lived my life picking others apart because they have something i dont, hell, i would self-destruct.

Interesting.... yeah.... guys love Asians too.... but that one I get... and they are brunettes usually with small boobs.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that big boob implants are probably a lot more for the vanity and self esteem of the woman who gets them than anyone else. I think it's more about women competing with women.
