Swimsuit photos are easy to shoot and easy for a buyer to say yes to. Here is how to shoot them, price them and post them on SexySelfies, where members pay per post and you keep 80% of each sale.
Open a Creator Account →A good bikini shot doesn't ask much of a buyer. It's sexy, it's familiar, and unlocking one post is a small decision. That suits a pay-per-post platform. There's no monthly fee for the member to think over. They see a free preview in the feed, like it, and pay for the set.
Swimwear also crosses audiences. People who follow fitness, travel, beach life and glamour all look at it. And you can shoot it in places you already go.
Light matters more than location. The hour before sunset gives warm, soft light and kinder shadows. Midday sun is harsh, so if you have to shoot then, find open shade.
Reflections and splashes add life to a frame. Apartment and hotel pools work if you have the place to yourself. Anyone else who is recognizable in the background is a problem, because you can't sell images of people who didn't agree to it.
Go early or late, when it's quiet. Watch the horizon line and the sand behind you for other people, and skip famous landmarks that pin you to a place.
A bathroom mirror, a balcony, or a bedroom with window light for "getting ready" sets. These work all year and need no travel.
A phone on a cheap tripod with a Bluetooth remote or a timer is enough gear. From a 60 minute session in 2 suits, aim for 30 or more keepers across full length, three-quarter and close detail shots.
On SexySelfies members pay per post, and you pick the price of each post. You can also leave some posts free.
A structure that suits swimwear:
Then watch your dashboard. If a style keeps selling, price the next set in that style a little higher. Let your sales decide, not guesswork.
Members scroll a feed, see free posts, and pay to unlock individual posts. The platform keeps 20% of each sale and the rest is yours. Members don't subscribe, and opening a creator account costs nothing.
Creators must be 21 or older and verify their ID before they can charge for anything. Until you verify, whatever you post is free. When your balance reaches $50 you can request a payout, which is sent through Wise.
The content rules are simple. Swimwear, lingerie, boudoir and full nudity (including artistic frontal nudity) are allowed. Vulgar or hardcore material is not. Swimwear is a full category here, and you never have to go further than you want to.
Members can message you for free, which is a good way to find out which suits and spots they want next. Photos and videos sent in messages can't be sold, so when someone asks for something, shoot it and post it to your profile with a price. Tips and paid livestreams open up once you're verified.
No. Body-only sets, sunglasses and cropped frames all sell. Showing your face is your call.
Yes, if they're sharp and you're the only identifiable person in them. Check the backgrounds first, because old trip photos can show places you visit often.
Yes. Short clips, like a walk along the waterline or a slow turn by the pool, sit well next to photo sets. Videos are converted so they play smoothly on phones.
You can, with a link to your profile. Each app has its own rules on swimwear and outside links, so read them before you post.
We don't publish typical earnings, because they depend on how often you post, how strong the sets are and how many members find you. The math itself is simple: your price per post, times the number of unlocks, minus the platform's 20%.
If you already take swimsuit photos for yourself, you have most of what you need. Sign up, verify, and post your first set this week. You choose what to show and what each post costs.
21+ with ID verification. Pay per post. Payouts through Wise from $50.
