I am now 31 years old. I started reviewing sex toys about eight years ago, which enabled me to amass an awesome collection and much pleasure.
One of the girls I knew mentioned that she was a cam model. We talked, and she suggested that I could cam with a mask, perhaps wigs, or just not show my face. I couldn’t see how this would help me initially, so I checked out some sites and signed up with one that was "offshore." Unfortunately, I soon found out that my ID had been compromised.
It was a nightmare—so much trouble that I didn’t need!
Despite that setback, I spent far too much time checking sites and trying to figure out how I could do it safely. Eventually, the motivation came down to money. I desperately wanted breast implants, but the cost ranged between $6,000 and $12,000—money that just wasn’t possible to save from my day job.
So, I decided to take the plunge into camming again, this time very carefully and deliberately. I signed up with Naked and eventually SM, while still considering CB as well.
I was fortunate that my income didn’t rely entirely on camming, so after my first few gigs, I developed an “I don’t give a fuck” attitude. I don’t take any shit now!
Yes, at the beginning, I was tricked into doing free shows because I didn’t understand the system. But those days are long gone—I give nothing away for free anymore.
When I started, I somewhat exposed my B-cup boobs, but that stopped quickly as I gained more experience.
I’ve always been interested in doing porn, so I figured that if I could land a few porn shoots, I could make my boob goal faster. At the time, I was only camming two to three hours a night, so I thought this could speed things up.
However, I soon realized that the porn world is very different. My initial shoot was a rip-off—I had to “trick” the producer into paying me. Eventually, I found a great agent in LA who got me about ten days of work on two different trips.
Yes, I made some money and enjoyed LA both times. I stayed with a porn talent in LA who introduced me to her surgeon. On my second trip, I went back and got my breast implants.
I am now a D-cup, and I absolutely love them! The enhancement is also great for camming or porn gigs.
But shooting porn is hard work. You’re constantly changing positions, the guys are enormous, and they’re always ready thanks to Viagra, Cialis, or penis injections (ouch). My vaginal depth is somewhat shallow, so some of these guys push my limits.
On the bright side, most of the guys are in amazing shape—such great eye candy!
So, do I still cam? Yes, because I’m addicted!
I enjoy the hustle, the power I have over customers (which they are completely unaware of), and the satisfaction of being responsible for “buckets” of cum, lol! I still get a lot of sexual satisfaction from camming.
However, I have to work under the radar. Unfortunately, camming isn’t exactly a resume enhancer—at least, not yet.
These days, I try to focus mostly on Skype shows. They are prearranged, prepaid, and non-refundable for no-shows. It’s obviously less work but more money for me.
The biggest time sponge is the emailing and arranging, along with sorting out the guys who think I should be grateful to let them wank off for free. Seriously?
I also love to fight. I’ve done kickboxing, boxing, and now MMA. I enjoy them all and even have a black belt in Martial Arts!
Camming has helped alleviate some of my excess sexual energy, but more importantly, I’ve come to know my body so much better. It has also made me a more adventurous sexual partner.
Unfortunately, I have to geo-block a large area to protect myself. I envy the girls who don’t have to do this, but everything in life is a tradeoff, I guess.
I have different names on both Naked and SM. This is necessary since the sites work hard to prevent us from steering guys to our Skype shows, which cuts them out.
In conclusion, I so wish WCG had been available when I started. It would have saved me from so many stupid and costly mistakes.
I'm writing this not as the most successful cam model in the business, but as a cam model who has seen way too many models fail. I'm also referring to female models, males have different challenges plus a different clientele.*break* Why did I start? I have been a cam model for about ten years. My situation was that I had a full time career type job, but I needed additional funds for a boob e [...]
The adult camming industry is made up of different market niches: Premium and Freemium camming. The goal of this article is to indicate that premium camming services can not work properly if they continue to be promoted as the same services as freemium camming because they have their own specificities. Otherwise, businesses could lose revenue from this consumer group. *break* The big players co [...]
