Hiring a private photoshoot model?

Does anyone know a good site to use for hiring a private model. Most sites are pay and and you have to be an accomplished photographer. Anyone have any ideas.

Someone else may be able to answer you better, but ModelMayham and OneModelPlace are kind of social networking sites for models and photographers. I know some people book shoots through there. One of them (can't remember which) lets you search for models in your area.

yes they do but this is for people who have portfolios which I do not have.

No you don't have to have a portfolio to start up. Everyone starts somewhere. Even if you just have maybe some pictures of like family members or friends, you can use those to put up on your modelmayhem or onemodelplace profile. Just something to get yourself going. Once your account is all set up, you can start searching for models within your area who would be willing to shoot with you, you can either pay them or shoot tfp (trade for pictures)). For someone like you who doesn't have any current experience, it'd be best for you to pay a few models to shoot to get your portfolio moving. Once you have some actual models in your portfolio, you'll start reeling in tons of tfp shoots (hopefully). And if you get really, really good, some models might even pay you (there's lots of girls who aren't models, just average girls, who want a photographer who will shoot nude or lingerie photos of them to give to their boyfriends, in which case they might pay you).

Both modelmayhem and onemodelplace are free.
 
If you are hiring for fetish modeling and porn I found this site - http://www.kinkygigs.com. It is pretty cool place for models and producers to meet up locally in the industry. I imagine you can hire someone from there. It seems to be growing but not huge yet. Looks like it's trying to be the ModelMayhem for fetish and porn.
