I have shot in my bathroom in a pinch a couple times and several gas station restroom kinda shoots ...and i always kinda liked the results..I see soooo many other people's shots that have also done similar  bathtub/urinal/sink+mirror kinda things..there is something that i kinda like about these bathroom shots...even some kinda legs/underwear around the ankles toilet shots...is it something to do with like "dirty girl" stuff?...cuz when i shot a boy model on the toilet with his pants down..it just looked like a poop shot...(not very sexy) KIDDING

I see a lot of these shots on people ports...?  Are all photographers perverts...?

A. Everyone has a perversion of one sort or the other.

B. No, but most perverts want to be photographers.

C. Yes, especially the ones with no nudes in their ports.

D. All of the above.

The correct answer is D, of course...

A model I work (Sybil) with wanted to do a shot like that so we did . Its on my OMP page in the artistic section of my portfolio. She decided to use it on her myspace page. That image has gotten the highest number of hits on my OMP page and the largest number of comments on her myspace page. Go figure...

I have some of those images as well... I had seen darker, edgier, more high fashion stuff, and wanted something similar. Instead (really instead, look at the images - totally different than that) we found the light was better in the bathroom than anywhere else had been (go figure, makes the most sense, particularly in the women's restroom) I suspect good lighting, privacy and perversion all play a role... It was also a challenge - avoid the mirror (reflections of the photographer and the flash), enough room in a stall, etc.

I think all that shiney ceramic and chorme do wonders for a model, not to mention the smell of glass plus

This is actualy the shot that prompted me to write this..cept  her panties are still on and the toliet seat is closed so it's not really perverted..it's just someone sitting, but the toliet poop and piss idea is still there..see what i mean...this is kinda a shot of thsi girl taking a poop...there cannot be any shot LESS glamourous than this...but i still kinda like it..wonder what the draw is...

Are you suggesting that being a pervert is a crime? Damnit why did I have to grow up in the country founded on Puritan values?

got one of myself here a few years ago- I was severely hungover, the title is "mornings suck." (it was actually part of a larger self portrait thing I was doing at the time)

Although an interesting shot (phallic hair-dryer), it doesn't show the bathroom-erotica paradox.  This is more photo-diary, where one would expect toilet/bathroom shots to be.  The oddity is the cliche' of toilet-erotica.  (or bathroom-glamor as it were)...

oh, yeah it's not meant to be erotic or to be paradoxical- best response I ever got though was, "so did you just go in the sink?"

I like to do bathtub shots. This phtograph,nicely framed was on my studio wall for a couple of years. I had to photograph the director of the Vancouver Maritime Museum. When he saw it he bought it on the spot.
