Would a pop-up changing room be considered sufficient cover in locations where changing clothes in public is prohibited, such as state parks?

Has anyone ever been accused of indecency or public nudity in the course of using one?

It should be fine to use a pop-up. State parks where you camp of course have to let you change in a tent...so I don't see what the difference would be in using a pop-up.

Many times I have helped hold up a sheet or blanket.  Never a problem.

I think you'll find they're more hassle than they're worth.  Mostly models just change wherever.  Some glance around to see if they have an audience first.  Sometimes holding a reflector or dropcloth in the way is a nice chivalrous gesture.

Good point. It's better to have one and have the model not need it vs. the opposite.

I have worked with models that range from those that will change just about anywhere to those that insist on a real building.

Model changing time = chimp time!
