I can tell you it's normal. Experienced models get aroused even with an old man like me behind the camera. Those girl parts start to get swollen and enlarged. I always wonder why, I'm an old man......

Maybe consider you have no idea how a strangers genitals are working and then stop asserting that you do.

To be fair they do mostly work in one of two ways....

Um... yeah... I live in a convent and my girlfriend is a blow up doll.

I am just wondering...

You're suspicious of a first post that reads "Hi, I get horny shooting pictures" to a roomful of photographers?

Ah, so you were only referring to your partner's genitals and not anyone else's then? Well then carry on.

Not really. 

Besides the extremely wide spectrum of genital variance there's also this wonderful thing called arousal nonconcordance.  most of the time when rando dudes talk about knowing for sure for sure that vulva-having models are super turned on by them/their work, they're actually noticing one of two things. One is simple discharge because y'all can't tell the difference between discharge and lubrication/cum, and the other is ANC - the same thing that gave you fear-boners as a kid being told to stand in front of the class and read your book report. Adrenaline/fear/stress/physical exertion does weird shit to the body that is often beyond our mental control. There are tons of photos of sports players with full on erections - not because they're sexually attracted to their opponents or the game, but because bodies are weird and they were just working really damn hard and sports are strenuous and your veins don't care that your dick isn't what's doing the work when your hearts going a million miles a minute, it's just gonna send blood everywhere

Everyone is different. Enjoy the high and keep it private.

I'll say it straight up. You're a dunce. Don't you think I got the pictures to prove it? That wasn't the focus of the shoots, I just noticed when processing. In some I had to edit it out.

28 years old and knows it all. Now say something clever thinking you are clever. Thanks for the laughs, kid.

I don't "know it all" but I've got a pretty firm understanding on how a vagina works. There is literally nothing you can show in a photograph to indicate sexual arousal. Biology is, by its nature, very clever.

Some women experience increased wetness and blood flow during ovulation, each month. It has literally nothing to do with arousal and is a simple biological occurrence that coincides with the monthly release of an egg.

No, you can talk about it as much as you want...

It's just unusual, because there are a lot of people, photographers and models alike, who, quite often lie about the occasional turn on...

In fact, it's being denied so often, that statistically... it doesn't make sense...

In your case, well... there had been a model or two that started out their very first posts with such a headline, because they knew that they will attract a lot of people visiting their portfolio and it's a great way to get attention FAST...

Whatever you want to talk about... go ahead...

I have a question, are you for real? I thought this kind of topic was totally not allowed in places like ultra conservative Bangladesh?

I wonder if there will ever be a thread in this forum about what happens when nobody flakes, nobody gets an arousal, nobody worries about escorts or not receiving images from the shoot, i.e. when everything is done professionally and rightly. Is that possible?

You forgot the Canon vs Nikon debate, also the $100hr models!

Perhaps you are experiencing arousal because of your perception to the shoot.  If you are doing something that you feel is erotic or sexual then perhaps you find it arousing. 

Consider the difference between being naked and being nude.

Either way, I hope you enjoy what you are doing.

I always thought was a false dichotomy. I know it's taught as orthodox in most art schools but I can't help but see it as a white western male projection onto images that the commentators have appropriated through power and wealth.

For me the difference between being naked and being nude while modelling has always been important.  I was quite aware of the difference when I began modelling, and I think it affects various genres of modelling more than others.  For strictly artistic work and glamour type poses, being nude is perfect.  But when I am modelling in the erotic and fetish genres, I need to think of myself as naked, I need to be seen as naked, and having that frame of mind while posing makes a huge difference in the results. I want to come across as being vulnerable and exposed and naked. I nearly always use the word naked when speaking or writing of my modelling experiences, in order to make others Thaware of my thoughts on how I choose to present myself as a model.

Sometimes being aroused while modelling can work to the model's advantage as well, again depending on the genre, and may occur quite naturally without intending it to happen. If someone is doing erotic and fetish work it could greatly enhance their mood and appearance. However, I would be quite uncomfortable if the photographer or artist I was posing for became visibly aroused and I was made aware of it either through a comment they made or by the change in their behavior. Even though that may be a natural response for some, I don't want or need to know about it.

Thank you for your insight and refreshing openness!

I agree. Our country is in a rapid cultural change

Yeah, you might want to go with the people who actually have these body parts on this one.

Other options also include that "feeling sexy/ aroused" during a shoot isn't because of a the photographer. Some people get aroused by feeling sexy rather than just the overwhelming attractiveness of the person taking photos.

But, sure, you must know more than we do because you have so many more years of not having a vagina. Yay.

OP: Like all things, just deal with it professionally.  Stay focused on the point of the shoot, and make the priority getting good photos.

Ha! Great answer.  Hilarious. I would never assume or think a model is arroused unless she admits to it. As a photographer it is none of my business.  I am there to create images.

Since I am a new member of this industry, often it is hard to control my arousal during sensual/couple shoots. (Of course I don't have sex with the photographer/model during that situation. I can control myself)

Is it a positive thing or negative? (some of them experts say real arousal makes photos realstic)

It’s negative only if it invites unwanted advances. So as a model, keep it to yourself because it may give others the wrong interpretation.

It seems so from this thread. I'll keep my mouth shut.

I didn't know it until I was processing the images after the shoot. I was too busy working during to notice. Maybe you should take your own advice and not make assumptions.

I've found that it's usually a positive when the model is excited (and at some level aroused) during a shoot, it brings an extra level of energy and attitude to the images  .  .  .  if it's a shoot that includes nudity, it really depends on whether the desired outcome is a sterile art nude that's a study in shadows and forms, or something more frenetic, with a sensual undertone, where a level of sexual energy is essential to achieve the look  .  .  .  I've had models that can create that look very quickly, and just as quickly turn it off when the shooting is done  .  .  .  I've also had others that would reach a level where they may have to excuse themselves for a few minutes to regain their composure, and then continue shooting, it's different with every model  .  .  .  so, I guess my advice is don't lose the level of energy you're feeling, and just work on channeling in into the shot  .  .  .  much continued success Miss F, and thanks for sharing some insight into your country's current culture!
