New models charging over the moon rates

[stugws]

A girl claiming to be a nuts or zoo published model has set up on adultwork with a few crappy snapshots of her back.
She is charging ?140 for half hour, 250 for 1 hour and 300 for 2hours for modelling assigments.
I emailled her with some friendly advice to look at what other girls similar to her were charging.
I got a reply "I will charge what i decide".

Am i being unrealistic?

Well, it's a market. She can charge whatever she likes, as long as there is someone willing to pay her fees. If she does not find anyone, she'll either have to reduce her rates, or decide that adultwork pays too badly.

I don't think you can expect a flat rate throughout the industry. Some will (have to) work for less, some can easily demand more.

I know, I'm just stating the bleeding obvious !deadhorse!

[stugws]

I know what you are saying there.

The point that i am trying to make is, would you hire a model for that price with a few shitty pictures and no evidence of any experience at all?

If i was hiring any girl from this site who who is established and has the experience and references, then yes.

How do you know she wouldnt be like a lump of wood?

You have not said what level she is working to but there are plenty of established reputable models who will work to solo toys level for far less than ?300 for 2hours and I guess some who would do non-publication Gonzo too.

Unless very lucky her work diary surely will remain blank.

The industry as quite a few new & eastablished models charging silly fee's but the plus side to this is that the other girls charging reasonable rates will get all the work.

I'm not impressed if she is published in Maxim, Zoo, FHM or any lads mag because I know those mags pay less money than porn and probably explains why certain lads mag models have crossed over to doing porn

The fact shes on Adult Work indicates her need to work otherwise why isnt she with a top glamour model agency?

Other than that she can charge what she sees fit. It just depends on who is going to pay it versus how much work she will get for that amount.

And I certainly wouldnt take the word of a published model who puts crap pictures showing her back.

That indicates she will have a foul attitude and want to get the job over as soon as possible.

Too many girls doing this business that despise what they are doing and Im not talking bg here either.

Girls who caharge those exorbitant rates do so because they know some tog with steamed up bifocals and clammy hands is gagging to see her naked.

Then again I blame Chery Cole for that L'Oreal advert telling girls "Because Im worth it"

True. Some are. And then some but lot aint!

I usually give a girl a script and offer her a fixed fee for the day's work. I did two day long (seveal hours) shoots with Angel Long for Neighbours and she got a grand and I was well pleased with her performance.
