So just how often does the sky fall on your planet, and how has your civilization survived to the point where it has Internet access when it apparently does so with alaming frequency?

I've been doing this long enough dear. I know how to weed out the GWC's before I agree to shoot and I always bring an escort.

You just get a feeling.  There are certain cues.  Art is supposed to be art, not a turn on.  Especially not when shooting.

If you are not turned on by your passion then you've got bigger problems.

Not always, not if the photographer is professional about it or is just good at hiding it
No offense but,,,I see a lot of wet look glamour, sexy expressions and such in your portfolio, much different than art.Not that there is anything wrong with that. Just sayin`.

LOL! love it

What do you want people to say?

"Yes! I get soooo turned on by shooting that I have to bring condoms and a vibrator with me!!!!"?????

Being enthused and enjoying the shoot is one thing. Getting all moist and such is another.

Generally, I don't get turned on during a photo shoot. I'm just trying to concentrate on getting the best pictures that I can for the models. The only times I do get turned on, is when I'm doing a photo shoot with my wife.

I've been doing this for far too long, obviously.  I don't get turned on during a shoot even a little. 

Twenty years ago?  Oh yes.  Those bygone days of exploration...

I was just about to comment that if a photographer were to say he (yes, only a male phographer), he would be spared no mercy in here. It is a double standard, because I don't even know why some people are attacking this model for saying she is tuned on while shooting. WTF ! Can't people just express their thoughts without idiots trying to tear them down ?

Yup, but with my wife.

Photographically.

Get your mind out of the gutter for TWO SECONDS. Perverts.

Although I was thinking I'd ask her husband to slip me a c-note to offer her a booking.

When shooting no.  Even when having nude models resting on you trying to see how the last few images came out.

I'm normally tired.
I stay focused, and keep things professional.
That way it lets the photographer know that you're about
your business.
No matter how handsome they are.
It teaches them to respect you a little
better.
Keep doing your thing tho.
Very nice pics.

Because I've shot nude women and filmed porn as a camera boom operator, I'm numb to that stuff when I'm shooting.  I only get turned on when I know I'm about to get some ass.

I wouldn't respect you more or less if you got turned on while I was shooting you.  As long as we got great shots, I wouldn't care.

There's ahuge difference between the photogrpaher and the model enjoying the work than either of them becoming arroused.  It's work to me.  When a photographer starts getting too into it, it tends to make me feel uncomfortable and I leave.  I take my sexuality to be personal and posting up pictures from shoots is as far as it's going.
