I was kind of surprised by that myself. The comments left by
photographers in the models' portfolios reveal an awful lot, don't they?

I decided to go ahead and sign up for an account (currently awaiting
approval) over there to see if I might be able to find a local model
or two to pose for me. As it happens, there seems to be quite a few
lovely ladies looking for photographers to pose for in order to
build up portfolios.
Then, after reviewing a few models, I decided to see what kind of
photographers I'd be competing with. Not that there aren't any good
ones to be found; there is some real talent in the area. But, on the
whole, the experience left me feeling much, much better about my own
work.
So, once I get my account approved by the gatekeepers, I think I'll
start contacting potential models to see who might be willing to
pose in exchange for pictures.
Any suggestions on how to approach potential models? I figure it
would be best to arrange to meet them in person in a public place
before the shoot to discuss any ideas they may have and what they're
looking for.
Also, are there any basic cosmetics or other beauty supplies I ought
to keep on hand just in case?
