Shooting in Berlin
Why Berlin
Germany's Freikörperkultur (FKK) tradition is part of everyday life in Berlin, where nude sunbathing is a normal sight in parts of the Tiergarten.
C/O Berlin shows major photography exhibitions, and the Helmut Newton Foundation at the Museum für Fotografie is devoted to one of the best-known photographers of the nude.
Our work has been exhibited at Haze Gallery in Berlin, and at Fotografiska in Stockholm.
You're welcome to apply from Potsdam, Leipzig, Dresden and Hamburg.

In their own words
I found out about Cesare House at the London World Naked Bike Ride. I've now done shoots for both Riding Solo: Men and Inside Out. Great experience. I'd recommend it to anyone on the fence.

How do I become a nude model in Berlin?
Apply online. It takes about three minutes and you don't need any experience or a portfolio, just one clear photo of your face. A person reads every application and we reply within a week. If it's a fit, we have a short video call, then agree a date in Berlin that suits you.
Do you shoot in Berlin?
Yes, we cast in Berlin. We don't publish fixed dates: we schedule a shoot once enough people there have applied, and once you're accepted we'll find a date that suits you.
How much do Berlin shoots pay?
Riding Solo pays £120 per person and Sunday Morning £120 per couple (about €140), for a shoot of two to three hours, paid in euros on the day. The Inside Out add-on pays the equivalent of £30 extra. We never charge participants anything.
