If they are Playmates, for 2 years after their month is non-negotiable. I've heard of other girls who were also under contract, but unsure if this is true and for which titles.
That and some girls want to wait it out for Playmate, in some cases it could hinder their worth to Playboy.

I checked out your profile Amelia, and am very impressed.  You are gorgeous, and can easily see why you were in Playboy.  But, also, your profile is also very clear.  And i'm sure when your contract is up, and you will be up to doing nudes again.  Keep up the great work.

I have always said no to nudes. With no negotiation.

For lots of reasons. A few of which are:

- My body is miserable compared to most nude models.
- I have also done it out of respect to my husband, despite him being cool with it.
- I always associated nude with page 3 girls, before i joined MM that is!

etc etc etc.

However, after having had a chat with a photographer for quite a while and exchanging comments on nudes, why i dont do them and having him put my mind at rest about insecurities etc.. I am going to try artistic/ implied with him. Simply because i feel i should atleast try it, i may enjoy it. I have built a rapport with said photographer and his work is immense.

Who knows, i may never do it again but atleast i know what im saying no to.

I had a long talk with a model before the shoot, where she made it very clear that she was fine with "nude on set" but simply wanted the images to only be implied.  Given her look and stats, that worked for me.

Then, she showed up, and after we talked for a few minutes, she informed that she would be fine with full nudes.    Happens once in a while, and it's flattering.  But it has to be the model's idea.

That works for me.

If you are a model who doesn't do nudes, is this non negotiable or ... do you have a price?   The details of this question would be if a photographer of the quality that you admire were to offer you any amount of money (within reason), is there a dollar amount that would get you to change your mind? 

The reason for this question is that another photographer and I were discussing if models were absolutely "non-negotiable" on nudity or if there are some that could be persuaded with the right amount of money?

... Discuss!

Hi just updating.

At this update I still check no to nudes but not because of money but because I prefer to initiate those shoots and I am a tf model only.

My port is half nudes and those 12 pics are first.

that is what i am talking about, in my post, there are some model profiles that say that
"NO NUDES, DON'T EVEN ASK"   and when you look at there "lists" and they have one titled "Photos I want to recreate"  and there are nude photos in it.
so if you look at the photos in the list it would tell me they will do nudes but there words say they will not...

why don't they say  "i will only do nudes with select photographers"?

Re: lists with nude photos -- I do almost exclusively nudes and I sometimes add clothed photos to my lists, not because I want to recreate a photo with clothes on, but because I like to pose and think the pose would look great nude.  So there might be something else she's getting out of the photo besides the nudity.  Just a thought.

It amazes me the ignorance some people have of the the psychology behind what drives people and the inability to read the entire sentence I wrote.

What part of "(and other women)" did you miss regarding lesbians.

Yes part of self-esteem for most people, male and female is feeling sexually desirable to the opposite sex or the sex you are attracted to. If doubt this you're clueless. This is why sex is used in advertising and has been proven to sell products.

"Oh if I buy that's I'll be more attractive."
"If I wear that women will want me"
"My ass looks better in those heels"
"That car is a pussy magnet"

C'mon does any one think women wear heels that hurt like hell because they fell good and just  to walk around the house in, hell no they wear them because it make their ass look better and the looks sexy on their feet. And I know tons of men that got tattoos because "Girl like guys with tats"
" and not to be more attractive.

And once again I'm not judging the actions only pointing out the obvious motivation behind it and the link to Self-Esteem pleaure of seeing oneself look good.

I'm no exception. I love when I look good in a picture. I don't workout like I do and take care of myself because I don't care how I look.

Most people are clueless about this stuff.   It's useless to try to argue with them.

You never see such talk from agency models or professionals. They're models, they do nude. No big deal.

I'm using an alias due to my current work contract. I'm also checking no because of being on the receiving end of offers to shoot nude with folks whose messaging verges on harassment.
However, I respect that folks do not want to shoot because of a clicked box, the same as they do not want to shoot because of ink. Its your preference. Good for you.

Just my thoughts ~ MR

Agreed. I don't do nudes at all. No ammount of exposure and money will change my mind. It's a set standard and I won't drop it. I don't need to write an essay on why i don't. It's a personal choice. Accept it and move on.

I have a friend who would do anything in this indistry for money.

Getting naked for money is just too comparible to prostitution. It makes no sense. If you do nude do it. If you don't, don't. Put a pricetag on it and it makes you look like a wallmart item.

People ask me, I say no. Some try and bitch about it. I ignore. There are many willing girls i. The industry.

That's a misconception. I know so many professional models who don't do nude at all. They do lingerie, swimsuit and glamour, but tey don't do nude and they are agency representes and well paid models. I don't know of this is a set rule in the States, but it's certainly not an internatuonal rule that a modelis obligates to do nude.

I don't need to get you naked.  There are many other models who will pose nude!

Just a side note, but I have come across profiles of llamas that say No Nudes or Implied Nude and then you look at their portfolio and there are implied nudes, I think it is more of a case to ward off the pervs instead of always a firm no.

Exactly!!! The thing is also that there are so many young ones who believe hat if they get naked, they'll become agency represented. The sad reality is that the vast majority of models get refused daily and where does it leave them. An unprofessional model with butt naked limages all over the internet for the world to see and still no contract. I can't imagine how that could ever be a good idea.

I have photographed 40 year old models nude.  It's not only young models who pose nude.

You like putting words in my mouth. Did I say older women don't do nudes? Did I say international models don't do nudes? I am saying it is not a prerequisite for models who want to be represented by agencies. I am saying that people think it's a one way ticket to an agency and it really is not. Regardless of a person'a willingness to do nude or not, a model needs something special and yes, good features and stats to get into an agency.  What now happens is the less fortunate girls with regards to looks and length, think that they should only go naked and they will get in regardless. THAT is the biggest misconception in this industry...
