Since Independence Day just passed (for those of you in America), I thought I would share with you something that I just found this morning while browsing Texas photography.
Okay; I don't want to be someone who has a close-minded and blindly patriotic view of things, because there was a post on here from a woman who took some portraits of her daughter in carious poses with the American flag with the intent of honoring our veterans and I didn't think that the photos were distasteful even though many others did. But...

I was looking online at some Texas photographers an when I first opened this website I saw the background and font choise and my first thought was "oh god."
Then I saw these and...I think it's probably the most insulted I've been by portraiture in my life. That's probably an exaggeration but still...wtf...
I mean, I can understand wearing a red, white and blue American flag miniskirt but, haphazardly draping the ACTUAL American flag around a model and having her seductively grab her breast is just...tacky...in my opinion.
It would be different if these were meant to provoke attention and cause controversy but these are supposed to be SEXY. What's sexier than pulling the symbol of your country across your ass right?
And since it's traditionally disrespectful to let a flag touch the ground, let's have some model around with it
I might just be too patriotic/easily offended. What's your take?
