If you ask me there's barely even a guide as to what you will pay (tog) or charge (model). Rebekah and Kaz have it bang on - it's all about location, travel, length of shoot and whether it's a full moon on a Tuesday.

Models can ask for whatever they like and its up to the photographer to decide if they want to pay it. Rebekah at ?35 an hour is an absolute steal - have you seen how gorgeous she is! - and Kaz is a total minx. I think you can take it that they know what they're talking about, Jeff.

I emailed a new model on Purestorm and she asked for ?25 an hour for topless, for a 2 hour shoot - and that was 2 weeks ago. Back in January I did the same thing and the model wanted ?200. Some of these newbies simply don't know what to charge. Unfortunately, that also means that there are togs who will take advantage and get lengthy, rude shoots for next to nothing.

All you can do is make an offer and see what the model says.

Do these modelling rates sound right?.

Fashion / Lingerie up to ?25 p/h

Implied Topless ?30

Topless ?35

Art Nude ?40

UK mag ?45

US mag ?50

Continental ?60


I am always interested in trying to find a approximate standard rate for various levels of modelling.
I will be interested in read some of the feedback from both Models and Togs.

I am the first to appreciate that the rates could well be different for Full time models compared to Semi Pro. and Amateur models.

I know a lot of giirls who work for a lot less rates than these, and also a number who work for more

I look forward to the replies

I'd say that's about right. Continental can go up to 75 easily enough, but as you point out it depends on the model's status and, presumably, popularity.

Oh yes, the great rate debate. I recently paid ?75.00 per hour for tits only (well known model and perhaps fourth or fifth shoot, and as she is so nice I didn't really mind... up to a point). I also paid a Purestorm amateur at ?50 tits only, and a couple of shoots. So for me, Tits only, the model's Tits and/or Nips have to be a bit special and pretty face helps.

I agree with Nikonman's rate card, it is about right as a general rule, BUT... the definition of UK mag and US mag is grey. Example, personally I think most of the wannabe Purestorm girls (no disrespect) say they will go to US mag. I asked a few if in fact they has seen a US Mag recently as most show the penis and some penis insertion!! US mag is easily Continental now and more.

I don't think it is worth shooting a model (at any rate) if you do not think she will be good to recoup that fee. Quite simple, is she gonna add value to your website or production? or will she be just another face or just another body?

I had to go to Russia for these, and only topless !! Fee/Rate Undisclosed...... How long is that piece of string?

I only started true modeling in june this year

my rates are ?50 to ?60 lingerie and topless per hour


?20 per hour for photo share


?20 thats it for a few hours work if the photographer is a good one and on the up and up.

And I dont seem to have problems getting these rates but then again not everyone has an all natural 38 to 40 HH bust
