Question for the Ladies

Ladies, do you prefer a trade arrangement when you need services of some kind or is it better to pay for these services?

I am a professional photographer who due to personal reasons has recently relocated from Indianapolis to Shreveport. I would love to work, worship the female form and I am very creative. In Indy I had a pricing structure and was constantly approached to do trade outs instead. In this area the few girls I have approached to do photos seem very suspicious of this arrangement. For me it really is about the work first, I put my heart and soul into my work. The payment arrangements are just icing on the cake.

Help please! I don't wish to offend any of the girls but I do want to have my creative outlet and work.

Thanks
