Hot damn. Boobies.
Begging? Don't you, like, agree up front what's gonna happen?

As a model, this post is disturbing... It reads like a teenage boy bragging to his friends about the girl he slept with the night before... So getting a model to be topless is what your after? What about creating a great photo (topless or not)? Checking your port, you have GREAT images... I would hope that your mission in photographing isn't getting to see nudity?
Just my thoughts...

Caroline The whole point of this thread was to have a little fun Caroline..
I knew going into the shoot with Melissa that she was going to take her shirt off.. that was the plan from the beginning...
The shoot with Leo was a last second shoot and he wanted some location shots by the elevator.. We did a bunch with his shirt on and then I suggested that he take it off. Not a big deal for him, heck he has been in Playgirl... (I don't want to see or shoot that stuff at all!!!)
I shoot all kinds of different things with my models.. and right now it seems to be a lot of lingerie and topless stuff.. that will change to more casual and fashion over the couple weeks as the models I am shooting change.. Which is cool I don't want to be cornered into just shooting "HOT" stuff.. all though I do enjoy that a lot.

As I'm sure you know there's more than the fair share of GWC's out there. Not saying you are one of them - your port is fantastic and I doubt you are. But the subject heading is what I was reacting to.
Peace,

Was wondering if you own a bicycle, and if so, does it allow you to backpedal?

butts, boobs, bodies are not the point, a good shot is.
Your post joking or not makes it harder on serious photogs, thanks alot.
Love to see this thread deleted.

Love to see this thread deleted. Exactly.... And when the threads come about why some models refuse to pose nude, this is one of the reasons... Personally, I love doing artistic nudes that are well done and the focus is on creating art, not pornography, but there's always the concern that the photographer will be taking the photos for his own private collection, etc....
I have a great sense of humor, but some things shouldn't be joked about in my humble opinion.

Getting a sense of humor is easier than a triple bypass caused by years of non-stop indignation.

Love to see this thread deleted. Are you trying to imply that David is not a serious photographer? He just had a cover on "Go Detroit" magazine.

Leo Interesting that you usually have to beg? I really do not think that is a healty policy and there si more to good photography than trying to see if you can "con" a model into getting topless. This is hwat makes it hard for the rest of us.

This sounds like a locker room. A bunch of jocks cutting notches into their belts.

I have thin skin and am easily offended by every little thing. I am also self righteous and am justified in jumping down your throat for the slightest reason. That is just me.

Love to see this thread deleted. I agree. Photography is only for serious people. This is a business and joking is not proper or profesional. Lets pro up people. NO MORE FUN!!
