NO NUDES Profile but NUDE PHOTOS in Pics
What is up with all these models on Model Mayhem saying "I do not do nude work" but when you click on View Photos there just all BUTT NAKED.... Dec 29 05 02:56 pm Link Usually means they're not doing nude work with just any GWC. Dec 29 05 02:57 pm Link Please don't double post topics across multiple forums (crosspost). Everyone that will see it here already saw it in the newbie forum https://www.modelmayhem.com/rules.php https://www.modelmayhem.com/posts.php?thread_id=18926 Dec 29 05 02:58 pm Link OK Dec 29 05 03:04 pm Link Hip Hop Model wrote: they r retarded................... Dec 29 05 04:21 pm Link it's like when women say "i'm not a whore, but if Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise want a 3some i'm with it"......................... Dec 29 05 04:22 pm Link it means, i do nudes, but not with you.. i thought everyone understood this.. i understand and respect that situation.  Dec 29 05 04:26 pm Link woo hoo double post... Dec 29 05 04:27 pm Link It means, "don't listen to what I say or what I do...because I don't know myself." Dec 29 05 05:24 pm Link Doug Swinskey wrote: Just remember .. NO means .. Maybe for the right photographer Dec 29 05 05:31 pm Link Hip Hop Model wrote: It might mean that what they offer nude, is not modeling Dec 29 05 05:38 pm Link Marvin Dockery wrote: LOL !

Dec 29 05 05:43 pm Link Doug Swinskey wrote: I also don't see the problem. I understand and respect this situation as well. As a photographer, if you don't respect this situation, move on to another model and stop complaining. Obviously, if you are a photographer looking for nudes, look for a model who will do nudes and don't hassle the ones who wish to be selective with whom they work.

Also, a lot of models might do nudes early in their "career" but make the choice to move away from that genre. Just because a woman has nudes in her portfolio does not mean she wants to get naked for just anyone. Why should she? A model doesn't have to drop her clothes on a photographer's whim - no matter how many nudes she has in her portfolio. studio36uk wrote: Personally, insinuating that a model is a whore or prostitute based on what she has written in her profile is rude, disrespectful and uncalled for. Dec 29 05 06:39 pm Link Simple, shoot only models with clothes on Dec 29 05 06:41 pm Link Well, if it makes you feel any better, I can promise you that I have no nudes of MYSELF on my profile and I DO NOT MODEL NUDE. So that should end any possible confusion there. Dec 29 05 07:38 pm Link

A model doesn't have to drop her clothes on a photographer's whim - no matter how many nudes she has in her portfolio. I never used any of those words. I was thinking that these models might be doing pet grooming, or house cleaning in the nude.

I still don't know how Fish talked the guys into it ... Dec 30 05 11:40 am Link It tells me, move on. Im not gonna beg to pose a model in a certain style- either she does it or she doesn't. Some models think nudes are like sex and we have to beg and earn it or something. Good grief. Dec 30 05 12:38 pm Link Hmm.. i recently got pics for my port taken. one is of me holding my breasts upside down at this artistic angle, and no nipple was shown. Now, in my real life im prettty conservative- so to me this was NUDEEEEE. haha but the (awesome) photog insisted it was implied nude... so i still put "no nudes" in my profile. i didnt want to specify and say "implied nudes with excellent photogs" for fear that i would get a lot of photogs looking for only that..... Dec 30 05 01:14 pm Link My thoughts are, "Why show nude or simi nude images, if you are not doing this kind of modeling work". If you walked down a public street with just you hands covering your private parts, you would get arrested. You could say to the cop that you were not nude, just implied, and he would laugh at you as he closed the cruiser's door in your face. I think some models do this to get attention, but then act insulted when a photographer ask them if they are open to doing what they have been showing in their portfolio. This would be like going into a pizza place, and having the order taker say, "We only do hamburgers. The Pizza sign is just a fake we put out front to have some fun." I am not down on models. I have worked with a lot of them, but not many from the Internet I have never seen nudes in a photographers portfolio, where the photographer is saying I do not shoot nudes. Dec 30 05 05:06 pm Link Coral Weber wrote: Just for clarification, what you did is "covered nude" or "covered topless" if you still had bottoms on. "Implied nude" is when you have clothes on covering the boobs and bottom and you just "look nude but you're not". Dec 30 05 05:06 pm Link Goes to show the same way the internet allows any joke to become a "photographer" it also allows any coockoo to become a model. That is like a mazda dealership advertising toyotas.. Will u ever see that ? Never..! My take is.. that among other things, is just a way to get attention to their portfolios. blah! Dec 30 05 06:39 pm Link Mayan, the subtitle of the famous "Nude Photography at Capitol Studios" is "Shot by people who don't quite grasp the concept!" Actually they do. I explained the idea for the shot to professional photographer Rodney Young (Northern Virginia, handling the fan) and professional photographer Michael Bell (Philadelphia, working the view camera), and they bought off on the concept. When Michael arrived from Philly, he asked me if we were really going to do the shot, when I said yes, he picked up the phone and called his wife: "Yup, Fisher is going to shoot me naked!" I'm honored to have friends like Rodney and Michael, they are obviously really cool guys. The shot was done years ago when I had a studio in the Washington DC area and has always been one of my favorites. The female model was a wonderful Russian model from Detroit, Olga Felina, and she was hardly spooked by the idea, but it did get a little weird when all the guys started wandering around naked. It has to seem a little strange when the tables get turned, but we had a lot of fun which was the point. Danny (a young male model I had worked with in the past) was the "makeup artist" and played his roll to the hilt. Thanks Mayan for reminding me about a really fun day with some great people. I love this business and having the opportunity to work with people like yourself, Rodney, Michael, Olga and Danny is one of the main reasons.

I know i am going through that now. my family doesnt aprove but do i wantto make them happy or do some thing that if creative and tasteful i can handle? maybe that is going throught their minds I know i have put no nudes and have had nudes on my profile. hmmm Dec 30 05 09:53 pm Link okay, so i understand, "i do nudes but not with you," or "i used to do nudes" but, it's not like the model didn't choose her portfolio shots of her own free will. if you're not "offering nudes" then just leave nudes out of the the portfolio....what's the problem? Then if there's a photographer you want to shoot nude with, you just tell them that. your portfolio is supposed to represent the work you plan to do with those who view the portfolio. i still don't understand.

Dec 31 05 12:56 pm Link good lord! who cares? booorrrriiinnngggg! -off to get my new years beers. Dec 31 05 01:01 pm Link Amanda Schlicher wrote: The "problem" is that without the nudes, a model might not get 65 comments telling her how "HOTTTTT!!!!!" she is, which really is what a lot of beginner/wannabe models think this whole thing is about. I can't understand why we evil photographer won't let them have it both ways without pointing out their unprofessional, unaccountable behavior...after all, their boyfriend/manager certainly dosen't mind it, so why should we?

Who holds the hammer? Amanda Schlicher wrote: Yes, it is. "Those who view" doesn't mean attracting offers from all. Why is discretionary limitation wrong?
