I’m a new photographer and I see groups that have traveling models that pose in lingerie and bathing suits etc. I see you have to pay to shoot them which is not a problem but what do photographers do with the photos?

    Almost no photographers make money with this type of photography. Moat of the people paying to photograph these traveling models are into photography as a hobby.

    Some of them might be able to create a portfolio and get some “boudoir” clients, but that’s rare.

    If you’re looking to get portrait clients, though, I would not recommend filling your portfolio with this kind of work. If you want to work in the world of consumer photography, lingerie and bathing suit photos will not be the most helpful. Most of the clients will be families during some milestone in their lives, so that’s what I would recommend in your portfolio.
