+ sniper Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 The number of attractive individuals vastly exceeds the number of paid modeling gigs, far more so than say acting, where you at least have to be able to memorize lines etc. Supply and demand principles dictate that it's unreasonable to expect to make a living at it.

It's interesting, though, that female models do so much better financially than male models.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ 7829V Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 It's interesting, though that female models do so much better financially than male models.... Female models receive premium pay because women's fashion is a vastly bigger business than men's fashion. Women in the United States, for example, spend more than twice as much on clothing each year as men do, and the difference is even more pronounced in other countries. http://go.owu.edu/~rjgitter/Why%20do%20female%20models%20earn%20so%20much%20more%20than%20male%20models.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudynate Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I have worked with a photographer who works with a few very well known female bodybuilder influencers. The spectacular backdrops are usually airbnb rentals - rented for an entire day of shooting. The influencer pays the photographer, for the venue, catering etc. We're talking influencers who really do make millions (yes, they exist).

They also fake it till they make it as we have talked about it many times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(now if some other social media types (and some on this forum.....) could take that lead...........) his IG....full of great shots and cool captions...... https://www.instagram.com/laurent.xiv/ According to his Instagram account, it looks as though he makes his living now as a pastry baker?
