Default Hire models (online)

Is there a website, where i can hire models locally?

There has to be a no signup fee, completely free.

I am looking to hire models for future photo shoots. But have had a hard time finding a place online to hire models.

I posted on craigslist, but man o man, you get some whacked out people on there, lol

I also tried modelmayhem, but still isn't what i am looking for


please help!

There's ModelMayhem.com. I dont know if it's free, but it's the biggest/best online model and photographer connection.

I read somewhere that Facebook is good for this type of thing. Seems to be quite a few budding models only too willing on there apparently.
