Please remember we have a no nudity policy on the forums - post links (as have been done in this thread) not embedded images of such material

Not everyone wants their nakied self posted all over the net If in doubt don't do it
You can always make up for it by simulating the poses with barbie dolls or something (I'm sure everyone will be just as eager to help out .
How about if i do some self portrait nudes, can i post them ? if so i will do some tomorrow night
Ok so I am going to have a photo shoot tomorrow with a girl and they are going to be naked.. Should I focus on one thing and shoot in black and white??

Tee said:Google bodyscapes/artistic nudes and then Google glamour nudes. One big difference you'll see is how lighting is used. And please, for the love of all things photographic, do not use a sheet as a backdrop and don't selective color your photos. Instant GWC neon light with a big red arrow pointing your way if you do that.
P.S. Did you draft up a model release and usage license? There's a current thread where a photographer is in hot water without the proper docs. Better to have something signed by the model stating she is freely allowing you to photograph her in her birthday suit.
"tasteful nude" just means well lit soft porn.
I totally disagree. Nudity does not equal porn. Not even soft porn. There are a lot of factors that differ between artistic nudes and pornography.
Until more so-called "art photographers" take photographs of 1) men and 2) models with bodies that reflect real people, and not sexually idealized forms within the cultural definitions of the time period - I am unconvinced.
It's out there, don't get me wrong. But I just don't buy the whole "it's art" line without appealing to tradition.
^^ comparing women to cars? I could not think of a better way to illustrate my point ...
