Shooting in the Libary!..er.not"!",but, i guess???
So with my crack addition to insitisting on keeping my glasses on for most of my shoots iv gotten a lot of comments on my "Kinky Libarian Frames". Which got me thinking..."why the hell dont i have any images of a kinky libarian or some sort of Office Romance themed shoot?!" So i was wondering, has anyone shot in a libary? Or a busines cubical type thing? How did that go? How DID you go go, (ie: how did you get the Ok to do it..thats assuming u didnt just sneek around?) Also i was curiouse if that is so impisable,if ne one had some ideas on more lax places to simular the enviorment?

Jul 03 06 12:52 pm Link that is a good idea...there's a few great "used" book stores in my area as well that have library like environments without the hassle of "QUIET" signs up all over the place.

Any place national like Office Max or Staples will say no in a heartbeat. But if you find a local place, they'll usually have some setups as well. And if it's a male manager/owner/person in charge, you'll have no problem shooting there. Probably just before opening or, if it's slow anyway, just get an appointment set up.

Getting permission from an individual is usually much easier than from a corporation. (Ask your friends--most SCA households have a lot of books...) Jul 05 06 07:40 am Link Kassandra wrote: I have... Jul 05 06 08:54 am Link I'd go with a used book store, probably be easy to get permission. Jul 05 06 09:32 am Link John W Cochran wrote: Especially one of those Hippie-type stores!
