How to Get a Job as a Nude Model

One

Hire a photographer who is experienced in portfolios to help you put together a well-rounded portfolio. Though you may only be looking for work as a nude model, it is a good idea to have a variety of shots to show a client your versatility.

Two

Contact a modeling agent to see if they are taking on any new models. It is extremely hard to find representation unless you were discovered or they see something in you that they can market. It is safer to have an agent in the nude modeling industry as they will know who is credible and who is not.

Three

Research as much as you can about companies that use nude models. This may include the music industry, bath products, lingerie or many other areas of advertising.

Four

Offer to be a nude model for an art class at a college, university or art school. This would be a great reference for your portfolio and allow you to get comfortable with nude modeling, as it is sure to be an acquired taste.
