I agree with the mix of a camera and the draw to it by most women.
What few times I have put out a casting or cattle call via onemodelplace or modelmayhem and Craigslist, I get a fair amount of responses. Most are flakes and no shows. Then again where I am, it’s not the entertainment mecca.
Many years ago I had some camera equipment and did amateur photography. There was this one “stuck up” girl at work no one could get near, but she kept shying up to me and the camera, mugging whenever she could. Now for the “Dear Penthouse” moment. She was a friend but she got her own apartment and wanted to show it to me. It took her all of 3 minutes to be naked and mugging for the camera on her bed. I learned that day that girls LOVE the attention a camera brings. Girls would literally jump I front of the camera at every opportunity. I was doing scenic shoots in England and loving the countryside but it turned out I had more photos of girls than I had of countryside. Puppies and babies maybe chick magnets but cameras are the supermagnet.
