Erotic photography model

Erotic photography models are individuals who pose for photographic work that features sexual themes, nudity, or eroticism. While some is conducted professionally for publication or distribution, a significant proportion occurs in an amateur setting. In these cases, models, most often women, pose for hobbyist photographers, frequently much older men, with limited professional training. The intent is often personal gratification rather than aesthetic or commercial output.

Unlike fashion or commercial modelling, erotic models are generally not required to meet industry-standard physical criteria, nor have formal training or accreditation. The resulting images range widely in quality, and amateur productions are typically unpublished or distributed via informal online platforms.

Erotic photography modelling can be considered to be a type of sex work, often combined with other types of sex work as part of the gig economy. Examples include phone sex work, webcam modelling, OnlyFans, lap dancing, erotic massage, escorting, hostessing, dominatrix work and sugar dating.
