Yes, I noticed, but I no longer work in the nude after an unfortunate reloading film and slamming the camera back shut incident years ago. I may however consider it in the digital age.

Josie, it is not a duplicate, it is a pun. Look closely.

Nah.. Those pics are too pretty to drool over..  Like I said in another thread.. Erotic is sexy with intent.. She doesn't look like she's coming on to anyone.. She just looks stunningly pretty..  I mutter I'm not big on fashion, but she lives in a world of very talented people..  Great photogs, great makeup, great wardrobe.. Mucho wow factor..

And back to the original topic..

If I were to shoot in the nude, I'd have to gouge the model's eyes out for her own protection..  (Or she would..)

I screwed up and don't know how to delete a post, so I may as well throw another picture in it.

I am not allowed to shoot nude - I am only semi-professional. But, then again, if you would like to see a totally ridiculous sight, I will shoot in a speedo.

I can look in the mirror in the mornings and get enough of a 'view' to satisfy me.

Hey If you're a nude photographer (professional or otherwise) where do you store your lens cap, pen and paper???? or whatever you need to get at quickly?

Never done it, but it's something I would definitely consider. And the gods know that I've had to get pretty close to nude while shooting some of my models to make sure the fake blood didn't land on outfits I wasn't sure wouldn't get stained.

Josie - you know people I know, don't you? In LJ (and real life land).

This is very true. And since my D70 has a really annoying habit of losing the infra-red remote setting while I am shooting art nudes in very low light, I would have no place to hang my minature mag lite so I can see the damn camera while I reset it  ...... forget it!  I'm NOT hanging it THERE!

Well, the pen always goes behind your ear.  No need for paper with that much bare skin, and you can get a string and dangle it from your camera or get one of those neckband things the people from GAP wear.  smile.

Sounds like a perfect place to clamp that fake ring light if you can't afford the pro model.

too funny! Ya know after posing nude for 3 years I really find it more difficult to pose with clothes on? Seriously.  I know what my body does, how it looks in different lighting and settings ... have NO idea what to do with clothes on, I feel like I'm on vacation and my mom's taking the shots for the scrapbook.

Nude?  I... I... but...


Look, I was young, okay?  I was told it was only going to be implieds.  I needed the money.  I didn't sign a release.  It was a bad time for me; I only lived for cheap women and the fast buck back then.  I've changed!  I've...

...wait.
