Morning everyone, sorry I posted this originally in the OT forum, wasn?t sure where was best.

So I was after a little advice from those with exerience in the industry.

A while ago I was seeing a girl who did page 3 and a little porn too.
A few of her friends did work so I got involved a little too, mainly shooting and some gonzo style stuff too.

Been away from things for a long time and I want to get back into shooting some stuff, just for a private collection, nothing else.

Problem I seem to have is every site asks for references and examples of my work, which I definitely don?t have permission to publish anywhere anymore.

What?s the best way to start out and get some shoots done without any recommendations? Seems I can?t really join sites without examples of what I?ve done and can?t get any examples till I join some sites! Haha

I?m based up north, but work in London mainly so travel all over the uk.
Would love to work with anyone for a few simple shoots to build a reputation, or even grab a coffee and chat, any advice more than welcome.

Thanks in advance

Just grab a female friend and take some nice shots of her in your local park. Get some close up head and shoulders and full body pics - Obviously not nude or sexy, and completely suitable for 'U' rated viewing.

Then use those pics for purpleport etc etc. I understand that you cant join certain sites without examples of your work, but if you submit photos taken at a 6 man gangbang with jizz flying everywhere, they will say that those pics are not suitable either...

Just throw up something completely tame and vanilla and that will do the trick. No need to overthink it

Good luck

Join a group shoot event,take some pics and ask the models' permission to put them in your portfolio.If you manage to make a nice impression,the models might even leave you a feedback in your portfolio.
