JOIN THE COMMUNITY ✨

Your model page. Free. Forever.

WorkshopFotografico.com gives you a real personal site to be found by the right photographers. Here's what you get:

  • A site of your own: photos, bio and contacts. You decide what to show, to whom and when — safe from Instagram bans and the loss of your followers.
  • They find you when YOU'RE ON TOUR (or in your city): add dates and a city and nearby photographers are notified you're around.
  • You search too: want to shoot where you know no one? Find the photographers nearby and reach out.
  • Posters ready in a snap: create a gorgeous graphic for your tour — or your page — and share it on Instagram and TikTok. Easy to make, perfect for getting noticed.
  • Your portfolio as a piggy bank: store your best photos and re-download them whenever you like.
  • The more you share your personal link, the more visibility and followers you get. And it's free, forever.
  • The most active models — those who share their personal link and posters the most — get an extra perk: every week the top 3 have their personal poster featured in the WorkshopFotografico.com newsletter, which reaches over 5,000 photographers worldwide. One more chance to get further contacts from interested photographers.
  • You could be SELECTED for the ShootJams: live one-to-one session events where the chosen models can earn up to thousands of euros in a single day. Minimum requirement: be registered — and the more referrals you bring (new photographers with your link), the more you earn.

Why should I use workshopfotografico.com?

Because here you are the star, in front of an international showcase of passionate photographers. It's like having your own personal website — only better: you manage your card, photos and travels yourself and decide what to show and to whom, with no domains, hosting or coding to worry about.

• Before planning a tour, Find a Photographer lets you see how many photographers are in the city you'd like to visit, so you can plan accordingly.

• While on tour, local photographers get a notification that you're around: more chances to shoot.

• With one click you generate your flyer ready for social media, to bring your audience straight to your page.

A polished, always up-to-date page: the right place to truly get noticed, anywhere in the world.

I'm a model: how do I join the directory?

Your model page is free, forever: a real personal page to get found by the right photographers.

Send your application from the “I am a model” page with a couple of lines about yourself: if approved, you'll receive access by email to create your page with photos, bio and your tour dates.

Once your page is complete and live, photographers can find you when you're on tour or in your own city.

Would you like to collaborate in the photo events organized by MaXu?

Sign up as a model. It's a way to get noticed by him, and it's also a NECESSARY CONDITION to take part. For technical and logistical reasons, since all the events are run through this site, taking part is not possible if you're not signed up.

These events include the ShootJams: live events where selected models do one-to-one sessions with photographers and can earn significant amounts — even thousands of euros — in a single day. And remember: the more referrals you bring (new photographers who sign up with your personal link), the more you earn.

How do tours and notifications work?

On your page you can publish the cities and dates of your upcoming tours.

When you announce a tour, photographers in that area get a notification: that makes it easier to set up shoots at the right time, right where you'll be.

Can I contact photographers myself?

Yes! Want to go somewhere but don't know any photographers there? Search for them with geolocation and contact the ones you find interesting!

The internal search shows you geolocated photographers who have chosen to be contacted, with their preferred channels (Instagram or email).

How does visibility work? Who sees my info?

You decide, item by item. For each piece of info — city, socials, email, shoot availability, public and reserved portfolio — you choose who can see it: everyone, only registered users, only Supporters, or no one.

What is the private VIP link?

It's a special key you generate for a trusted person: whoever has it sees everything — contacts and reserved portfolio — for 24 or 48 hours, with no registration. You can revoke it anytime and, once expired, it stops working (just make a new one if needed). Perfect for a photographer you already know — you stay in control.

Are my photos safe?

Yes, on two fronts.

Who sees them: the photos you want to keep reserved, you place yourself in your dedicated portfolio, visible to Supporters only (or to whoever you give the VIP link). What to show, and to whom, is always your call.

How we protect them: the images in your portfolio have technical safeguards against copying — right-click saving is disabled, dragging is blocked, and a protection layer sits over every photo to prevent it being grabbed directly.

Can I hide my profile whenever I want?

Of course. One click on "Disable my profile" and you disappear from searches and the site; come back online whenever you like. The control is always yours.

Who are the "Supporters" and why can I trust them?

The Supporters are selected, of-age photographers — serious people who are an active part of this community and care about their reputation here. They're not anonymous passers-by: they have a verified account and a face. That's why you can choose to show them a little more (your contacts, your reserved portfolio) with far more peace of mind than to a random visitor.

Sadly the world isn't perfect: always do your own research and ask for references before meeting strangers.
