I've read this over and over again about models putting down other sites, putting down the webcam shots, etc. I for one just starting here, have no other source of pictures. How am I suppose to get seen on here without a picture? If you have any ideas other than using a webcam at home or a borrowed camera from a friend, you tell me. I have no professional shots at this point..the ones of you that are so offended here, I bet at one time, you didn't either..

Angie, you have lots of sources for professional photographs. Do a search and you will find many. Perhaps what you meant to say is you don't want to pay to have professional pictures made. If you want it enough, you will be willing to pay for it.

Webcam pictures suggest you are not willing to invest in yourself, and if you are not, then who else will?

Angie, you've been here since May? How is it that you haven't had a chance to get professional pics? I don't understand.

I have had chances..I've talked with a lot of photographers, but I am pretty much being picky about who I choose to shoot with. I am 38 yrs old and I feel whomever I choose had better be GREAT..I won't have as many chances and years to make up for crappy shots..

Give me some time, and hopefully I will dazzle you ..lol

I do totally understand what your saying there. But I wasn't saying I'm not willing to pay for it. The pics I have are only here to get me noticed until I find the photographer I'm looking for. Don't think I'm not willing to invest in myself. I'm very willing.. thats why I'm taking my time, thats why I'm here. Maybe it's just an "age" thing, but I'm not going to just shoot with the first person that comes along. Does that make me bad? I don't think so.

I guess I really should've been commenting towards the person that mentioned that webcam pics are on the rise here on MM. Like it was some kind of disease. I was just trying to say to that, everyone has to start somewhere right? And the part that they said some people are thinking with their pants when they give a nice compliment..OMG! I couldn't believe that. Someone can be beautiful and show it in a snap shot. Geesh!

Give some of the newbies a break that are on here just trying to get their first chance at this. I was approached as a teenager about modeling, but my life took a different course. Modeling never crossed my mnd again til about a year ago. So thats where the webcam and borrowing my friends camera came in. Not everyone gets "noticed", not everyone has professional photographers banging at their doors wanting to shoot. So they resort to the "home made" images until something better comes along.

Alright Imma shut up now, hope ya'll get what I was saying now. I'll explain myself better next time lol

Take care, Angie
