Answer
Hi Julia,

I would suggest you start by contacting a few reputable Adult Talent Agencies and speaking to them about your interest in the Adult Entertainment Industry.  I recommend you start with these:

http://www.alisttalent.com
http://www.adulttalentmanagers.com
http://www.goldstarmodeling.com
http://www.lisaannstalentmanagement.com
http://www.type9models.com
http://www.worldmodeling.com

These are VERY reputable and establish Agencies and each of these company websites has all the information necessary to put you in contact with a representative. These Agencies only work with equally reputable Production companies thus greatly increasing your chances of success. If this is something you are serious about, get yourself signed with an Agency and let them get you started on the right track.

For your own safety I would also STRONGLY advise you to avoid placing and/or answering ads on sites like xpeeps.com, craigslist.com and backpage.com looking for work. These, and many similar, sites are common playgrounds for all manor of predator and are honestly never used by legitimate Adult Industry Professionals to any real extent.

You may also feel free to email me directly and include some Photos. I will be happy to consider you for one of our future projects planned for this year.

Good Luck
