The Non Nude teen girl community

[rocker83]

I was wondering, if any photographers are familiar with this very large and I guess somewhat lucrative business of nonnude modeling websites. I have seen over the past 10 years the internet become a home to a huge community of teenish models 18-22, almost bearing all for 25 dollars a month.

The models are usually your girl next door type and the photography, aside from some, is mediocre at best. I was wondering if anyone had a comment or statement about non nude modeling websites? Does it make money? Are there any particularly good ones?

What I have come across is the opposite, 18+ would be nude and 13-17 would be non nude.

Mainly in the past 5 years I have seen an increasingly large drop of any pay site that is "nonnude" or "suggestive" under the age of 18 because federal laws are tying it to a sort of kiddie porn...Anything that is under the age of 18 is usually over seas or passed off as "artistic nudes"

If you're looking to establish credentials as a legitimate professional photographer, I'd avoid anything that might give the impression of being "sleazy". I'd stay away from the "non-nude teen" modeling as practiced by the photographers on those internet sites.

I'm not sure the OP is trying to be a "legitimate professional photographer," but maybe make some money. Since he asked for comments and statements, I'd stay way from that type of business too.

ha, no Im looking to be one at all...I was just wondering what other people's opinion was on these sites. Im just pointing out they are lucrative. I thought people had comments or opinions as to any "good" websites as far as photography. If the name phil flash rings a bell, he is notorious for over 15 nonnude model websites that feature girls 18-22 pushing the limits of nudity and charging for it..

The majority of NN modelling sites that I have seen feature models in the age group 13-17. Bearing this in mind you have to wonder why they are so lucrative and exactly what kind of people are members of these sites. I personally would steer well clear.
