Tips for Porn Photographer.

Check the rules at your lab. It's not worth loosing your job over...is it?

Just about any pro photo lab shouldn't have a problem, as long as everyone is of-age and nothing illegal is being done. To that point, if they look younger than 30, get shots of their driver's license as proof of age.

I really think you are going to need some, lighting for this. Either studio strobes or speedlites. Even two Vivitar 285hv's and a couple of shoot throughs, and or bouncing off the wall/ceilings(assuming a fairly neutral color) sill be significantly better than the lighting in the room. If you dont have any lighing, this shoot would be a great reason to invest. Speedlights would be a good choice because it is a small room, you dont need incrediblt fast recycle time, and they are small, and easier to move and reposition between shots, than studio strobes. You can get into a basic 2 light strobist setup for around $300 or so. Either that, or spend the money renting some lighting. In the smaller room and considering the subject, I would not recomend hot lights.

Wouldn't hurt to bring some rubber with you... I mean, that's the last thing you want to regret not having..... for both good and bad reasons.

Wait wait you use rubber?

For lighting?

Strange, though I've heard of milk bottles, paper, pingpong balls, aerosol caps and more so I guess it might work...
