I am a wedding photographer. I am shooting a wedding in Europe this summer. I am just wondering how to find models who are willing to work with me in exchange for the photos.

People recommend Model Mayhem. I have never used it.

I mainly looking for single models and couples for taking photos at interesting places.

How should I go about this? Is there anybody here who also had the same problem before?

Thanks so much!

Just checked out your wedding stuff (which is great).

Start researching the modeling agencies in the country you will be in. Get a dialog going with their new face director. Let them know that you are shooting and you would like an opportunity to test while you are there. Attach some fashion images you may have to the email so they can see your work instantly.

Most new faces (aka recently signed models) will need images for their port. You also come off as "international" so it will make the agency feel special that you are contacting them.

Going through an agency is a little more legitimate than MM. You have the image quality to work with agencies. All it takes is you initiating the conversation.

***DISCLAIMER***

This is under the assumption that the country you are going to speaks English, or you can speak their language! lol
