Something to try... Shoot in Raw/Jpeg and set to mono on your camera the jpeg will come out mono which you can look at straight away and the raw will be in colour.to get the full range...
 
You make a good point, unpopular. One that I didn't get from your original statement.

Originally I thought you were taking a stab at the "horndog Model Mayhem" photogs (and you may have very well been), and it made me chuckle. Because really, how many TASTEFUL nudes are on the site? Most of the ones I've seen that have been called that have been, well, porn. Not all softcore either lol.

why is this such a big thing? I think you all are making too much out of this. Plenty of photographers have nude models. What's the big deal?

Thank you ever one is calling it porn and stuff.. And people are making it seem like I am doing something bad.. I am just taking pictures and there are so many photographers that do nude portraits it's the body of a human what is so bad about taking pictures of it.. When you take nude pictures you hVe to be mature about and not act like a child cause you get to see a girl naked ..

Pornography serves a legitimate purpose in every society, and I am not saying that erotica cannot be art. But lets not make something what it isn't simply because the lighting is good or the composition is novel.

The first and foremost interest in the overwhelming majority of nudes is the visual representation of sexual nature - and how can one represent this without arousal? What I think is more interesting is our aversion to sexuality in art in the first place and that there is some kind of invisible boundary between artistic and pornographic images.

Yea I understand what you mean.. I see how it could be "soft porn" to some but just art to others
 
I just don't want people to be like oh he is just taking naked pictures cause he has the chance because it isn't like that.. I am not a horn dog or what ever people are trying to say .. That all I wanna clarify :)
 
I do have some concern taht you are working for hire in a field which you are unfamiliar. Perhaps you should get some practice before you offer this kind of service.

Nude photography is difficult to do tastefully due to it's sexual nature.

I am not getting paid for this event.. And I hVe done some nude photos before and yes it is difficult trying to find poses that aren't all sexual and more classy of you get me??

oh ok, then. this will be good practice then.

since we're all adults here, compare the images here:

Erotic nude art & photos of beautiful young women - Met-Art.com

with some of the images here

art nude photography - Google Search

try to appreciate what makes met art "erotica", while what it is about these images "fine art" - aside from the technical elements. How might some of these images be erotic art, rather than high art and decide which style best suits your intent.

Thank you so much those images will help alot:) and yes this will be great practice I hope to learn from everyone I do:) I will not charge till I fully understand the art

He's not talking about sexting...;)

j/k
 
OK fine, the human body is erotic, just by nature but erotic isn't porn. I'm not sure where the line divides but porn sounds less nice than erotic ;)

Yea that true when you think of porn though you don't really think of pictures that's how I see it .. You think differently
