Looking for a male nude model for your next project?

Here are 15 quick tips:

1. Ask a friend

You will have instant report. And everyone knows at least one exhibitionist.

2. Ask a lover

You’ve already seen them naked. So you know its best angles.

3. Place an ad in a newspaper

Try a job at a local college. Or better yet, on Craigslist. In the GIGS section you can try the Talent and Adult categories. Be specific about what you are looking for. You don’t want to surprise them if they aren’t comfortable modeling nude.

4. Post a flyer in an alternative bookstore

If they sell erotica, you will have a receptive audience. Ask the cashier if you can leave some flyers on the counter next to the cash register. Or post them on a bulletin board if you have one. (Or ask the cashier if he seems interested.)

For these next ideas, first create some simple business cards. And be sure to include your phone number. You can get free cards online from various companies. Take them with you always. You never know when the opportunity will come.

5. Guys in your gym

Bodybuilders tend to be exhibitionists (obviously!) But you don’t want to scare them. It is best to speak informally first. Ask about his weight lifting routine. Then ask if they ever got close to modeling. You will get a good idea of ​​your comfort level.

6. Changing room in the pool

It draws a different crowd than at the gym. Especially good if you are looking for guys with a slimmer physique.

7. Model agency

This is the most expensive method. But you can choose from the cream of the crop. To save money, choose a smaller agency. And ask them if they have male models just starting out who will work in exchange for impressions for your portfolio. Just make sure they know up front that this is a nude (but tasteful) modeling job. Today, many male models are receptive to this.

8. Bus stop

Really. Seeing the guys on the streets is a great way to find talent. And if they are at a bus stop, you have a more captive audience. Also, it means that they may not have a car and need some extra money. Just make sure you have a business card ready, so they don’t think you’re just trying to pick it up.

9. Night club

Nightclubs attract handsome, confident guys. And after a few drinks, they are in a good mood. So give them your card in front of their friends. Tell them you are looking for new models. It will be a huge boost for your ego. And they may call you the next day.

10. Male escort

Some of them list themselves as models in their ads. And most of these ads leave little to the imagination. This will give you a good idea of ​​what they look like right from the start. Just be sure to make it clear that you hire them to model and nothing else.

11. Beach

Again, this is another place where you can see a guy’s body and decide if he has potential. A nude beach is even better.

12. Nudist club

Join the club. Follow the rules (don’t be a pest). But if guys see you naked too, you can build a good relationship. And you happen to mention that you do photography. You’ll probably get the guys to volunteer once it’s known.

13. Art instructors

Talk to art teachers. Most have worked with models of nude figures.

14. Local actors

If you give them a headshot in exchange for modeling, you can attract local actors. Just make sure they are comfortable with nudity. And take some time during the shoot to take some traditional portraits.

15. Sauna at YMCA

It sounds crazy, but this is where you will find the biggest exhibitionists of all. Don’t let your card get soaked in all the steam.
