Fashion photography is supposed to be all about the clothes or the product that you're advertising. This photograph is completely failing to do that, but then, we're not fashion photographers, we're glamour photographers. We don't do fashion.

Fashion photography appears mainly in.. {drum roll}.. fashion magazines !! We're talking glossy women's magazines.

Portrait photography would be the kind of pictures you'd see in Hello magazine.. ie. very flattering pictures of famous people.

Theoretically you can earn a lot as a fashion model. There are plenty of resources on the internet for becoming a fashion model, but this isn't one of them. Keep reading to find out what we do.

Ok, I don't really like the term "fetish". It always makes me think of chains, whips, rubber, and other bondage related stuff. Not that there's anything wrong with that kind of thing, it's just there's a whole world of other kinky stuff that's getting unfairly lumped in the same box.

Virtually anything can be a "fetish" if it's got a sexual bias. There are the usual favorites such as uniforms, upskirt shots, and thigh-high boots. Then there are the more unusual fetishes such as feet, women in big pants, women smoking, women with balloons. And before you assume all us guys are perverts can I just say one word: firemen. I rest my case.

In terms of 'flesh-per-square-inch', fetish doesn't necessarily mean revealing more than regular glamour.

In terms of "markets" for this kind of material the internet is probably the biggest consumer. If there's a fetish you'll find a website out there specialising in it.

We do do this kind of work - but it's rare that we would do a fetish shoot without asking the model to do at least "men's magazine" too. What's the difference? Keep reading.

Right, now, pay attention. A lot of girls who contact me seem to get very confused about the difference between nude and "Men's Magazine".

Nude is, as the name suggests, no clothes ! However, sometimes it's called "tasteful nude" or "artistic nude" which I think is useful because it's very much, "no-knickers, but so what".

Take for instance Francesca to the left; she's clearly naked, and if you look very hard (and trust me, some visitors to this site will do just that) there's definitely a little tuft pubic hair down there. However, that's all you can see; just a little fluff.

This is the sort of picture you might find in Playboy, maybe even FHM etc. but it's NOT to be confused with traditional top-shelf men's magazines.

The other place you can earn money as a nude model is doing "life modelling" for artists.

So what the hell is "men's magazine" if it's NOT nude???
Finally.. you're asking the right questions...

"Is it in yet?" Jojo enjoys her vibrator

"Continental" modelling takes glamour about as far as you can go without stepping across that line into the world of "porn". Some would say we've already entered it.

Without putting too fine a point on it we're talking about fairly explicit "solo masturbation" here - either genuine or "faked". If you're happy to slip a finger or two, or a vibrator, or anything else, into your vagina, and all in front of the camera, then congratulations you're a "Continental Magazine" Glamour Model.

Still not sure what I mean? Want to see some examples? For those worldly wise, grown up ladies amongst you, clicking any of the images around here will remove the nomohi logo censorship.

As you can imagine, this kind of work is quite "intimate" - but it really isn't that different from a regular men's magazine shoot. We just use more lube. But it's still very professional; there's still a brief that we're working to. There are still deadlines, and lights, and pauses whilst we change film or batteries, and all that jazz. And whilst the girls might look like they're in the passionate throws of wild lustful abandon, it's really all just an act. It's theatre. Just with less clothes.

If you've never done this type of modelling before why not come along to a testshoot, go as far as American or Men's Magazine (above) and then see how you feel.
