Why Professional Dominatrix Need Professional Photography

by Dirk Hooper

If you’re a professional dominatrix and you don’t have professional photography, then you are losing money. In many cases you have only seconds to make a first impression with a potential client. If you work in a crowded market then those precious seconds may be split among dozens of other professional dominatrix and that potential client may be lost forever.

Professional photography instantly separates you from the crowd and tells a client that you are serious. Right now, there is a proliferation of young and inexperienced dommes who see the potential to get free shoes and have their bills paid by gullible submissives. If you are a serious professional, then you need to recognize that those amateur mistresses are a threat to your business.

There are a number of ways for you to distinguish yourself from wannabes, but nothing creates a stunning solid first impression like professional photography. A lot of the photography of professional dominatrix is web cam photos, cell phone photos, pictures by friends or boyfriends with point-and-shoot cameras and student work. These photos are poor quality, hideously lighted and have terrible composition, but most importantly, they make you look bad.

Sure, web cam photos and amateur photography is cheap, but you get what you pay for. Even a professional photographer may not understand the psychology behind female domination, or understand how to create photos that appeal to the submissive psyche, but at least they can offer you photos that bring out your best features and give you photography that instantly looks superior to your competition.

A one-hour session with a professional dominatrix can be from $100 to $500 (or more). In general, the hourly rate for a professional photographer runs about the same (again, depending on the experience and prestige of the photographer). That means the cost of getting solid photography for your business will be comparable to one or two visits from your best client, and the investment in that photography will pay off immediately and for years to come.

If you are serious about your professional dominatrix business then you must take an unbiased assessment of how you present yourself to the public. Your unique look and style is the most important first asset you have for marketing to potential clients. If you don’t have professional photography, you are not living up to your potential in your dominatrix business. A professional photographer can take your business to another level. Don’t let your competitors get that advantage over you.

medltoxicboxToxic Goddess Burlesque has a new Creative Director and a new Event Coordinator and is now looking for additional performers to participate in events that are being booked right now.  Toxic Goddess Burlesque is looking for female performers with a unique or edgy style to become a regular member of the troupe.  Interested performers should have the ability to follow simple choreographed numbers, although a dance background is not required.  Performers who offer sideshow, circus style acts or something besides dance are encouraged to apply as well.

Applicants are not required to have a performance piece for the audition, but if you have one, bring music with you.  Aspiring performers will have to be comfortable stripping down to pasties (this is a burlesque troupe).  If you have a resume, please bring that as well.  Toxic Goddess Burlesque is particularly interested in performers who stand out from the crowd or offer something different, so feel free to express yourself!

Open auditions will be held on Sunday, August 16th from 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm at the Will Rogers Event Center, 3401 N. Independence Avenue, OKC, Oklahoma.  You do not have to be a model on the Toxic Goddess site to perform in Toxic Goddess Burlesque, although a representative from the site will be available to talk to you about becoming a Toxic Goddess if you are interested.

Robert Henry and I headed out to Bricktown last night to meet with the band Los Inquietos Del Norte last night.  We shot for about two hours all over the place.  Those guys were a lot of fun to work with and we got some great photos.  You can see some of the results below.

If you’re interested in the band, please visit the Los Inquietos Del Norte site.
