More than likely the model would be charged, and the minor sent to a foster home. Jan 13 07 05:07 pm Link a buddy of mine teaches photography at the local college and the weekend classes have high school kids sprinkled in.. since they all look the same to me (high school seniors and second year college kids) I have been asked to critique some portfolios by his students only to find nude self portraits.. mainly by the high school girls.. Some of them have had the college aged kids pose nude for them in their studio class.. in that environment no one asks anyone elses age, they just assume if they are all in the same class they must all be out of highschool or at least legal.. Those opportunities werent available when I was in high school or I would have been in honors classes just to be at the college..

Jan 13 07 06:10 pm Link Chris Macan wrote: D'oh! Jan 13 07 06:13 pm Link Lots of discussion, I'm not fully sure of the topic, but if you mean minors-as photographers, then I don't see much of a problem. Actually, they do it all the time! I also work in a photo studio, and most of the nudes are from minors. Now, I really don't think its appropriate for adults to photographed nude by minors. As stated above-contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Now to brach this out a bit, It seems that society would accept a woman posing for a male photographer, than a man posing for a FEMALE photographer. Shouldn't they be equally abhorred? Jan 13 07 06:24 pm Link Hey is there some way to add a table to the posts...lets try good ol' ASCII Photog Model Male minor Female legal he juvie with time in JH; she probation Female minor Female legal Cops scratch heads and watch Female minor Male legal she strong talk; He hard time with Bubba male minor Male legal minor juvie with time in JH; Legal Hard time [Bubba] Jan 13 07 06:25 pm Link hmm interesting thought. If I were a 17 year old photog shooting an 18 year old model nude I doubt anything would have been said... anywhere... people are laughed at when the sexual accuzations are switched to male minor/female legal rather than a legal male to minor female... so where's the real prejudice... Jan 13 07 06:31 pm Link i did nude modeling when i was nine, people always assume it was bad.

I know I'll get bashed for this but there are sites out there that can be your friend when you find out the young man you just met who thought you only a few years older than himself lies in order to not have you just walk away. Jan 13 07 07:32 pm Link I shot a few (they were legal age) when I was still a minor, they were like fake playboy style, I had watched a Ken Marcus Glamour Lighting Video and thought I was the sh*t !!!! They were great or so I thought at the time. I would be afraid to see them now LOL Stephen Eastwood http://www.PhotographersPortfolio.com Jan 13 07 07:35 pm Link Doug Swinskey wrote: When I was that age, I had a lot of girls wanting to get naked for other reasons. But, I had good old Dad's 35mm with me some of the time ... only I couldn't afford more than a roll of film Jan 13 07 07:39 pm Link I have a cousin who was in a nude drawing class at a community college when he was underaged and in high school. His parents just had to sign a consent form. Jan 13 07 07:41 pm Link Doug Swinskey wrote: i dont know, can someone tell me.... can a 17y/o photographer take nudes of a legal age model? Is that allowed, i know the converse is a problem. Jan 13 07 07:47 pm Link I think this is a little silly.I took some figure drawing classes and drew naked people.My parents just signed a release.Also if there is a legal consent age for minors having sex with adults I highly doubt you'd get in trouble at all for taking nudie pictures if you were underaged.I would say I'm almost 100% ositive that they wouldn't get in trouble especially not the minor.If there was going to be trouble they would mostlikely consider the minor a victim.

An appropraite parent/guardian would need to sign any contract on behalf of the minor. Jan 13 07 07:53 pm Link I borrowed my stepmother's camrea when I was 15 to shoot nude photos of my brother's 16 yr old girlfriend. I even took them to the one hour lab at the mall to have them developed. Luckily they were "artsy" enough to not be questioned. And by artsy I mean completely blurry and out of focus;) Jan 13 07 08:04 pm Link As long as the youngest of the 2 (the photographer or the model) is 16 and the older person is within 4 years of the first persons age, then everything is legal. BUT, with someone older than that it can be considered indecent exposure I think (like when someone shows themselves nude to you).....

If the boy is under 12 and the girl is between 12-16 she is charged. If one is 16-18 and the 2nd party is more than 4 years older than the older party is charged. If both are under 12 then the boy is charged Jan 13 07 08:08 pm Link Doug Swinskey wrote: Some things to consider: Jan 13 07 08:11 pm Link mia vaughn wrote: Probably happens a lot more than is discussed; how often do models ask for ID from their photographers and check DOB? wrote: Debatable.

Jan 13 07 10:56 pm Link the point (to me anyways) is what you - or most of the people here- would do, it's what others do.. there's no shortage of scumbags, there's also no shortage of people like john ashcroft.. someday someone like ashcroft will use porn and community standards to limit art, then freedom of speech, then they will start to include newspapers.. to me the point is, what picture of a person who is under the age of 18 could you take that is so artisticaly important? if there isnt then why add to the 'problem', hypocritical as the 'problem' might be Jan 13 07 11:14 pm Link We have a high school for gifted and advanced students here in Richmond, VA and for years, students in the arts would take classes at one of the local universities in preparation for moving on to college. A few years ago a 16 year old girl from the high school took a college life drawing class and her mother and father raised hell with the university, threatening legal action for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. From that point on, the university banned minors not enrolled full time in the school of the arts. Doug Jan 13 07 11:39 pm Link Dr Molly Black wrote: Never said or implied that you did. My point was a answer to a question that the io.p. was asking. I used the Mrs. Robinson because back during those days, there were no laws where a young man/minor and a women of age didn't have any rules or laws that were broken. Jan 14 07 12:03 am Link |
