The aim of this information is to make you aware of how I conduct Suicide Girls shoots so that both you and I know the basic details and limitations before we work together. For general shoot guidelines, please use the 'Photoshoot Information' button below to view details that apply to all of my shoots including SG. Although I'm based in Canberra, I'm happy to travel to Sydney and regional NSW - please inquire if you're interested in an out-of-Canberra SG shoot.
General Information and Signing Up
Firstly, being naked on the internet is not for everyone! While SG is a paid subscription with access to model photosets limited to active members, there is still a risk that photosets can be leaked from the site onto the wider internet. There is no guarantee that you'll be 'pinked' as a fully-fledged Suicide Girl and many SG models remain a 'hopeful' without ever making the jump. Once SG accept your photosets they 'may' - forever in any way and in anything, without asking you or paying you anything - use or change those photos. Whilst a hopeful you can request to remove your sets if they don’t get bought; however, if you do turn ‘pink’ you are paid US$500 as compensation and the rights to that set belong to SG even if you stop being a member of the site. This means they will own those nude photos of you forever.
The below button links to the SG Models FAQ page that provides all of the information needed for you to understand how SG works and how to apply to be a model (points #1 and #2).
Shooting SG Photosets
At this point you should be an SG hopeful, with the next step being to submit a photoset! This is where the fun happens, but it can be a daunting process for SG beginners. The SG Models FAQ page (points #3 and #4) provides details on the process of shooting and submitting photosets. The key to a good photoset is the 'flow' of the images that present a 'story' to the set. This doesn't have to be overly complex but it needs to be thought out so that we both know what we are trying to achieve. Discussion ahead of time regarding the theme and style of the photoset you want is always a good thing but I'm happy to come up with the theme/style on the day of a shoot to best use the location, lighting, etc. Below is a link to the SG Model Guide that provides further info on shooting photosets.
Submitting SG Photosets
On completion of the photoshoot, I'll supply a range of images to choose from that will need to be narrowed down to between 40 - 60 shots that will make up the final photoset for submission. As detailed in the Model Guide, the idea is to pick a range of full-body, body close-ups and portraits that slowly work their way through the theme/story. I will assist in this process and provide advice on the final selections so we're both happy with what will end up in member review.
Once the photoset is finalised, it is typical for the model to submit the set to SG, although I can do it as the photographer. Point #4 of the SG Model FAQ's details the submission process. Please note, SG do not have to accept your photoset: if they do not believe it fits the criteria they will reject it. No penetration or fetish related content is allowed on the site so you will not be able to submit this content. While you always hope a set will be accepted it is not always the case. If the photoset is accepted (usually within a week) there's a waiting period of up to 4 months in the SG queue before the set eventually hits member review.
Overall
All in all, SG is a community: if you don’t plan on engaging on the site don’t model for them. With this in mind, SG is what you make of it and it can be a rewarding experience where you engage with like-minded models and members. Being active in the SG community and interacting with members and models helps to build a presence which in turns helps your sets when they get released.
I'm more than happy to provide further advice on SG requirements and, if requested, can also arrange for you to discuss the 'SG scene' with experienced models prior taking the SG journey.
