I'm a pervert
I'll admit it; I don't just shoot erotic and risque work because it's popular, I shoot it because I like it. If I don't like what I'm doing, be it a fashion set, a still life, or a nude(implied or otherwise), the work just isn't going to be good because I don't care. Now if I'm getting paid, of course I care; that allows me to do more of what I want to, so that means it is a means to my ends and makes it much more valuable, whether or not I personally like what I am doing. Anyway, thats not the point. Recently, I came to NY to visit my family and a few friends, and I ran into a photographer-friend. He's been trying to branch into working with models, but the way he was telling it to me...just disgusted me. I'm not sure I can associate with him anymore, and I've told him just as much. I won't go through the whole conversation, but paraphrasing what to me was the big red light "If I can't sit with a model and work my mojo on her, I'm not going to shoot with her." This came after having a convo earlier in the day, and he said the same thing about girls he was trying to screw, not work with. Anyway, this one is for the models out there: Just Ask Your Photographer If They Are A Pervert!!!!! I admit it, I am. But work is for work, art is for art, and wank is for wank, and if I plan on creating anything with a model, I'm going to be as damn clear as I can what we are creating so that we are both happy with the results or decide against working together for the time being. Anyway, mini-rant over. Happy New Year, MM. Dec 30 06 12:51 pm Link Who the hell uses the term "work their mojo" anymore? You paraphrased...but if you now tell me he also said he's trying to "shag his babe-a-licious models" I may just have to vomit. You should just tell him to "behave baby." Dec 30 06 12:55 pm Link Be  , and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!Dec 30 06 12:55 pm Link Thanks for sharing. My name is Ed and I'm a pervert. Dec 30 06 12:56 pm Link lol at this thread. Dec 30 06 12:59 pm Link My name is Tikeya, and I want a slurpee. Dec 30 06 01:00 pm Link Perverts 'R' Us ...and "mojo" !?? wtf Dec 30 06 01:01 pm Link I'd be a pervert but I'm too lazy... yawn... going back to bed... Dec 30 06 01:01 pm Link Ok, just because I'm in one of those moods. I started thinking. Are you a pervert if you're attracted to gorgeous females? That would be normal under most definitions. Now...if you said he got sexually stimulated by rubbing peanut butter on his genitals and calling over his Golden Retriever...THAT would be perverted. Wow...I really need another hobby than these forums lol. Dec 30 06 01:05 pm Link Some people probably think I'm a prevert because of what I like to shoot. Joke 'em if they can't take a you-know-what!  Dec 30 06 01:07 pm Link Tikeya wrote: Hooray for girl perverts!

If you see an old man talking to a young girl, often times people assume he's a pervert, even if he just needs directions somewhere.

Dec 30 06 01:24 pm Link Michael Pandolfo wrote: That's a bit of a problem. Most of the pervy old guys who come to my work prefer to stare at boobs, though. In fact (I work at a book store), I had a customer ask me to order him the "Big Book of Breasts". He also asked that he not be called when the book arrived, but that he would come by for in-store pick up.

And I want a slurpee, too..... Dec 30 06 03:06 pm Link So you're a perv? Well, join the club Dec 30 06 03:06 pm Link Serevende Photography wrote: And remember, 3 years old in Human years is 21 in Dog years. Dec 30 06 03:11 pm Link What? You mean you're not supposed to use the word "mojo?" Now you tell me. Bastids... Dec 30 06 03:12 pm Link Odin's Eye wrote: Are you still dating your model friend?

Going to a job you don't ultimately enjoy, spending time with an elderly person just to take their money, keying an unknown stranger's car, and other robotic acts of base inhumanity are all perversions. We are all guilty of perversion in one way or another. Dec 30 06 08:34 pm Link Come on guys, you remember "Dr. Strangelove" and General Jack Ripper's lines about them "preverts". Gotta watch out for the preverts! Dec 30 06 08:38 pm Link oops, sorry. Dec 30 06 08:43 pm Link Surely there must be perverted models out there too? Yes? Good, why don't you join in and give our Johnsons a tickle. Dec 30 06 08:46 pm Link I can't even tell you how girls I have scared off by saying, "A lot of my work is inspired by Helmut Newton." Or, "I'd like to do something Newton-esque." Dec 30 06 08:46 pm Link Three Cheers for the perverts!!! I am all for them.

My name is Moraxian and according to Dave Gibson I might be a pervert.... Hmmm, maybe I should start a thread or write a book titled, "You might be a pervert if..." Nah, that's been done.

Using a feather during foreplay is just a little kinky. Using the whole chicken is perverted......................  Dec 30 06 11:04 pm Link Tikeya wrote: I buy slurpees for ALL my perverted models.
