  I did...and I didn't even think to call the pope. And I didn't get a release. And I didn't say a word to her mother (don't even know if she was there)!
What should I do? Format the cards? Pretend it didn't happen? Go on with life care free?

Honestly...This happened. I may even post pictures in a second...AHHH!!!!

I want to see the picture so that I can apply the correct amount of anger and disgust towards you.

AND you're in Oklahoma--oooh this is bad..real bad

Hmmmmm, if she was from Oklahoma and she was 14, it was probably a wedding shoot.  (Ducks for cover as Iris starts throwing things at the smartass Ks photographer)

Had she been in Arkansas, it would have been a shotgun wedding.

How the hell could you not know she was underage? She looks 12.

Wait...here's the thing. I didn't care! ha
I knew there were 8 girls...varying from 14/15 to 33.... I just shot.... I didn't ask ages... I remembered to ask names... But I don't remember hers. I suck.

And...the best models start young.. haha

Being Female, you are basically immune to mis-conduct with underage kids. You really can only get into to trouble if the kids are male and you have intercourse with them. Even then it is 50/50. A female taking pictures of teen females is pretty much nothing to do about nothing.

Being Male and Single. If I look at teens wrong I go to jail never to be seen again or if I do get out I am exiled for life. My only protection is having a parent present. If I was married or extremely well established in the area it would reduce my risk considerably. That said, why yes I have on rare occasions taken pictures of people under the age of 18 (and we are not counting my neice and nephew). The limit for me is swimsuits with parents present.

Perhaps. But then you'd have to worry about what your wife might think. Take your chances with the community

I believe this was the underage one...


Will the FBI be after me?

and the styling here was not my idea

Since I can't see what it under that fur, I can only assume she's wearing nothing.  That, therefor, qualifies this image as erotic.

Additionally, she is modeling a fur.  how insensitive of you.

Erotic + insensitive = porn

Porn + photographer = pornographer.

you are a pornographer.  Please see me so that you may be properly spanked.

Wow, No idea how I have made it this far without going to jail...  I shoot underage girls all the time, even boys. In swimsuits, cheerleading outfits, you name it.  The parents are NEVER there, not true, every now and then I may see one. I never get a release no matter what. I ask them for thier address and phone number and lets not forget thier e-mail address too. Did I mention they also pay me? or maybe I should say thier parents do. It is thier name on the checks I cash. 

For those of you that have yet to figure it out,  I also do school photography, yearbook, sports and dances.

I know, there's a bunch of scaredy cats here....
I never thought twice about shooting younger models, but since everyone here is so terrified, it thought I'd post this... lol
