Post pics if you have them please Fetish models, which are the funnest to do and have the biggest draw? Dunno -- I only dabble in fetish photography, but some generic advice... ... Stay within your comfort zone. Yes, I know, ironic -- some fetishes will require the model to appear uncomfortable. What I mean is that you should feel comfortable with your photographer & the crew, knowing that if you request a pause or stop in the action, your request will immediately be granted. ... Start first with your secret fetish desires. What do you think you'll get into? My particular fetish is "erotic submission", as in "Here I am all tied up & helpless; do what you want with my body -- I can't stop you". Or as in this 18+, popular image in my portfolio or as in this other portfolio image:

There's pretty much a fetish market for anything you can think of, but almost all the markets mentioned above are too small to select one and work in it exclusively. Fetish models will do a wide variety of work. My favorites included: shibari and restraint, wrestling, muscle worship, and feet stuff, but I have done videos of almost everything on the list I made. latex...

ShivaKitty wrote: No one gets rich quick doing fetish work, or really any type of freelance modeling. There are only a certain number of jobs available at any given time, and so many beautiful woman scrambling to get them, that (as with any genre of modeling), supporting oneself fully on the income requires being willing to do a variety of things. While it can be beneficial to appeal to a specific market, and build a reliable customer base in that market, it's nearly impossible to shoot only *one* type of fetish, and make enough profit to keep going. If the OP chooses to enter fetish work, she is likely to earn a significant portion of her income through shooting content for private collectors, and through individual pay-sites that are the "pet projects" of the people who shoot the material. These people will ask for a variety of themes, and variations on certain "scenes" she has done in the past. There is rarely enough specific work even available for someone to be able to pick and choose what they *most* want to shoot, 100% of the time. You will simply enjoy those shoots more than the others, when you do have the fortune of getting offered a job performing a fetish act you personally like. Florida does have a large fetish market, and some models there do have more ability to specialize in only one or two niches. Certain parts of the country provide more opportunities for models than others. Very good points, especially with the location and model opportunities because they do vary widely depending on where you are. Here in Florida, and Tampa in particular, there are dozens and dozens and dozens of models all competing for work and if they want to survive they have had to open up what they will do. For instance if a girl won't do vids she has right away cut herself off from maybe half of available work and it's the same with limits. If a model won't do underwater...or wet and messy....or tickling.....or DiD bondage etc. it's her choice but it severely limits the work to be had in certain areas. But in less model rich environments, like friends I have in Arizona, the model base is tiny for fetish models and as such a girl will find folks more willing to conform to what limits she may have for herself. It's all about supply and demand...just like anything else.

I was curious about this myself just for my own education. If nothing else it's a great place to start with some "outside the box" ideas for those of us with more "conservative/traditional/boring" portfolios.

Think you have the attitude to be a Domme.... of course I think people would pay to see you knotty. I know little to nothing about suspension other than to work with experienced practitioners to stay safe. Did we abandon wrestling? Think that may be a fetish too....

Sometimes it gets mixed with superhero fetish (fighting with super hero costumes on)

It's one of mine anyway As well as Lonkhsee's image, the one he posted in his post, not the 18+ one... more of a psychological submission instead of a tied person. To answer a question asked higher, I can't see myself shooting some fetishes (pooping, gold shower and all related are good examples), so yes a photographer might be better at shooting fetishes they have. It then becomes a personal and artistic exploration, in opposition to a simple image making of something that is outside of his/her fantasies. Personal opinion though, as I know professional photographers should be able to shoot outside of their comfort zone to make a living.

It can prolong a career, as the actual "fetish" is focus...if you maintain your look and show the ability to perform/model then it's a matter of when you choose to stop modeling as apposed to specific age range for some forms of modeling assignments.

There are so many different fetishes out there... if you can think of it, there's a fetish market for it. I used to do a lot of private work - latex, foot, leg, hands, mouth, hair and I made good money doing it - none required showing my face at all. With the mouth, I wore a latex mask or just a mask over my eyes. LOL

Feet - I don't like (touching me...lol) but some of the other stuff is just downright naughty fun. Real latex fetish isn't porn, it's about the sensuality of how latex feels against your skin. I love how the body reacts to wearing latex. LOL

I'd probably enjoy fetish llamaing however I am 16 and so probably should not do it just yet haha. Also if asked to do foot fetish id say no in a heartbeat... I feel so sick if someone accidentially touches my feet, let alone if someone started tonguing them or tickling them. Hehe

I shot some content for a private collector who was into kidnapping videos, basically where someone stages kidnapping a girl, and confining her, and you make a little movie about being abducted. It was kind of cheesy, and the collector liked to see images of the kidnap victims eating, and being "cared for" by the kidnapper actor. There was no appearance of the woman being hurt, or abused. Nothing like that. It was very comic-booky in nature. Lots of fun to shoot though, and paid really well.

I'm a best seller currently on a tongue fetish clips for sale page. But I also have special "equipment" The most fun I had was doing vore fetish. Specifically pretending to eat little people. The photographer/videographer had to keep cutting because we were both laughing. The clip looks great, especially since he does an excellent job with green screen stuff. I'm going back next month to make more clips. This time we're going to incorporate a clip involving sushi, since last time we both went out for a sushi dinner and he found out what a garbage disposal I am for the stuff. I've also done drool fetish for a few photographers, which apparently is very popular. A spin off called "eat my spit" I know is popular right now, but I'm not sure I have the stomach for it. I've also done shoots with face harnesses and other equipment. It's fun and the equipment is always fascinating. But the one I get hired most for is perverting the Japanese Lolita fashion style. I have a few private collectors who I shoot it for. A lot of the money I make from these shoots just goes back into more wardrobe because I love the fashion!
