Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

My wife has a web page on an adult web site. Can we advertise to pay over 18 persons to be pose partners with her. The potential models would need produce 2 forms of valid picture ID and sign a model release (these are the host sites absolute musts for anyone to appear on their site) The question is is it illegal to pay someone of legal age cash for posing with her?

I'm worried about prostitution laws...solicitation..tax laws even.

The cards, flyers and ads would clearly state "Errotic Modeling" "Full nudity required"

(I don't know if this matters but it would be still shots.)

"No Sex"

It wouldn't violate the prostitution statute unless one was touching the other in one of the "covered by bathing suit" areas. However, I'd be more worried about it violating the lewdness or indecent exposure statutes. See Florida Statutes Chapter 800.
