I posted an ad on craigslist awhile back that I was looking for a model to photograph and also that I was looking for some teaching/coaching in photography.

This woman, who I have never seen or met, has been corresponding with me and giving me free tips.

I later posted an ad that I was looking for someone to model for "boudoir" photography (aka lingerie photography) and also to teach me to compose photos at the same time. So, both a model and a teacher at the same time.

The same woman I had been corresponding with responded to my new ad, and asked to see what photos I had done so far. I replied that it was an embarrassing issue, because some of my subjects were call girls.

She said that she didn't care, so I sent the photos.

Honestly, I'm not sure if this woman is hot, although I doubt it, but I need her help in order to learn photography and it sounds like she's into me because she's seen some of my photos and thinks I am good at photography and have a lot of potential.

So, basically, I just want to get along with her in order that she may teach me boudoir photography and other types of photography.

I really would prefer to pay her, but Im sensing that she would be willing to help me for free just to hang around me. The thing is, I think she's going to try to seduce me and I'm not sure I want that because 1) I've never seen her and 2) I need photography help and coaching, over the long term, and if I bang her, that means I can only get coaching from her under certain conditions, and 3) she says she knows other models who can help me and my guess is that some of them may be hotter than her.

Anyways, this is what she wrote me:

Day before yesterday:

I've never really done "boudoir" stuff...actually one of my actors asked me to help her do nudes...and no worries on the call girls...what do the classes do?...the help you talk to the models?...I know several and they might be willing to help...they would expect copies at least....uh never heard of the thing you're talking about...show me whatcha got....how come you didn't ask me...?

Yesterday:

theres nothing "wrong" with the photos you did...we should meet and talk, discuss...this isn't as hard as you think...what's your schedule when can you meet, talk...your on the right path....

Today:

hey...just curious...and I'm not judging...don't answer if you don't want to....did you fuck any of those girls that you hired?

....

How can I make this go smoothly so that I can get the help that I need and not hurt her feelings, if I don't want to bang her...

Better yet, how can I bang her yet continue to get help from her if I want to bang other girls at the same time.

Maybe I'm reading too much into this... maybe she just wants to help and expects to be paid and is already happily married.. idk..

The art scene is weird. Everything is pseudosexual.

Any help with this?

I'm not sure what kind of a woman keeps emailing me because of photos I posted on craigslist. She thinks I have potential or something. I'm thinking she's an old lady or something.

But, now she wants to know if I've ever fucked any of the women I hired to pose in my photos, some of whom used to work as call girls. I did, actually .. one of them propositioned me and asked me to fuck her. And then there's the fact that I've seen call girls in the past.

I just want to get her help because it sounds like she's connected to models.

Is it that difficult to just leave the house? No bars, clubs, malls or anything around?

For the record, I don't think this is a good idea. But at this point I'm just curious to know how this goes down. Meet her for a coffee in a public place for introductions. If she's fugly, don't invite her to your home. Simple.
Also yes, you can tell her how one of your past girls seduced you into fucking her.

Inb4 op gets catfished.

I just said "Yes" and she said "Nice...and took photos...awesome..." and now she wants to pose for boudoir photos.

I honestly don't care if she's nasty if she can actually teach me to work with light for the type of photography I want to learn. You have to start somewhere. Photography is hard to learn.. I asked her to send samples of her work.

If she actually has good knowledge and wants to help then I will hang out with her.

I'm just gonna throw this out there.

Do you honestly think Craigslist is the best place to look for a photography mentor?

Maybe not.

I could post an ad in the fine arts building at the local university or something. I could talk to a teacher or professor. They would probably offer free advice.

Other than that, there's lots of books out there.

There's also a couple of photo arts clubs. I went to one just to see if there were girls there but it was all old people.

Again, more paralysis by analysis. If you are willing to meet her for help just meet. I won't meet someone from Craigslist but if you would just do it. Quit worrying about whether she wants to fuck you or whatever else... you prepare for things way too early. There are so many resources for you to learn photography I don't know why it's all of this analysis.

Practice. You don't need a coach and even if you still want one it doesn't require all this mental gymnastics. It's 2016. So many resources out there to learn something and if you're willing to pay it's even easier. You complicate things man.
