This question is for both, models and photographers.

What is your favourite type of modelling?

*Fashion
*Glamour
*topless
*nude  etc......


Hmmm i wonder how many people would say that nude is there favourite, or some sort of unclothed work. (sarcasm) Do not take offence.

That's way to broad of a question...  Depends on what I'm doing, or what mood I'm in.  Right now, how about nude-fashion-glamour?  is that a category?  ha ha!  Maybe I'll just stick to flowers, they don't seem to mind if you shoot their reproductive organs...

well it isn't really, but some people may be to shy to say they prefer nude, as some people may think they are well... a bit pervy. I know its silly, but some people do think like that. I do not, I couldn't care less, what people prefer doing.

Most people who do nude modeling or photography aren't ashamed of it, or they wouldn't be promoting themselves as such.

I'll do anything, but nude etc is my favorite type of modelling work. It's not glamourous, but always fashionable. (I wear it well)

I'm moving towards glamour these days.  I like the sexiness of it and I've been told it fits my body type the best which works for me.

As a photographer working with a model, I prefer artistic/sensual.  Sometimes that means nude.  Sometimes not.  It depends on what mood I am in, what the model looks like and what kind of report we have together when working.  I'm nor really into the classic "glamour" stuff.  So, I dunno, hard to say.  Take a look at my port (here and on my website: http://www.starglider.com) and tell me what you think it is.  I'm clueless.

Nude . . . if it's done well.
Glamour . . . if it's done poorly (for the humor factor)

I'm not sure what it would be classified as, but my avatar along with 3 new photos that I just uploaded to my port are good examples of what I like to do best when it comes to modeling. (artsy, self-reflective type shots that tell a story).

When shooting (I am also signed up here as a photographer), I enjoy shooting similar type shots but also greatly enjoy photographing children and animals along with taking macros of flowers/plants.

WOW

I did not expect so many responces, its interesting to know what peoples preferances are. I did type etc for  a reason, it covers the other types of modelling that it did not mention, as i wasn't that bored to type all of them. smile

All I shoot is nude, I am a fremale and I pay the models well, so I am not trying to use them or get a free peek.

A nude female can be very beautiful but killer clothing and costumes are way sexier in my book.

I'm really into shooting nude elbows.  And knees.  Definitely nude knees, too. 




Other than those I definitely prefer fashion.  Whether or not I actually shoot fashion, though, has yet to be determined...

I prefer nude and glamour work because it comes so naturally and I find it's the most fun to work.
On occasion, I"ll put clothes on and push out Fashion work, but I have been told
it's not my strong point.

I like shooting in the "Hollywood" style of the 30's and 40's. I also love pinup styles from the same era...
