Explain that you publish a website and want to find out if she would like to model. No need to go into details in the checkout line. If she gives you the contact info and you provide some links to samples of the work, then she can decide in the privacy of her own home if she would be interested. With "adult" material I know there is always the chance that someone will overreact in a negative way. But if your instincts tell you she would be a good model, maybe it will be worth the risk. The big advantage is that you already have a large body of work to demonstrate that you are totally legitimate. That is important. I am having a somewhat similar experience right now in that I have recently discovered that I am pretty good with charcoal drawings. I would like to publish a portfolio book of the drawings. So far my models have all been photographs. You see, my subject matter is female nudes of various sizes and shapes from age 50 on up. Not porn-style crotch shohts but truly artistic nudes in celebration of what I think is the beauty of the female anatomy as it ages, in my opinion anyway. I find that getting started is the hardest part, or at least getting up the courage to seek models. I would be whole lot more comfortable asking a 70 year old woman to take off her clothes if I already had some published work to show her that my intentions are honorable.
