Using pasites for implied?
Top Gun Digital wrote: I make it very clear for an implied shoot that they need to be comfortable with me seeing them, and they need to trust me about what will be public. Haven't had an issue with it in years. Jan 09 13 09:08 pm Link I hate B  IE pastiesJan 09 13 09:12 pm Link i've found it's a lot easier to just shoot with a model who is comfortable with nudes. then you can shoot some implied shots, and if there are some where an entire nipple is showing, that's fine, you can still use it. nothing as frustrating as reviewing a shoot and seeing a great shot that you can't use for anything because the model doesn't want it to be made public. Jan 09 13 09:13 pm Link I thought the title said "parasites". Bwahaha. Jan 09 13 09:16 pm Link J Jessica wrote: Topless, with the breasts covered with leeches, or cockroaches. Jan 09 13 09:25 pm Link What is how to ruin a perfectly good implied shoot. Much rather use arms, hands, tree branches, etc. Jan 09 13 09:30 pm Link Ditto on uncomfortable coming through the lens big time. Topless is for experts.  Jan 09 13 09:42 pm Link if i'm shooting with pasties then i'm shooting the product or burlesque aspect. if i'm shooting pasties because the model is uncomfortable showing her nipples then i'm taking the afternoon off. Jan 09 13 10:17 pm Link The only thing "implied" about pasties is they there is an implication that there is a nipple under it, otherwise she is still (and obviously) "nude" but with round stickers covering her nipples. At that point I would dress those babies up with some cool tassel pasties.

It all but ruined the whole shoot. Horrible stuff. Jan 09 13 11:50 pm Link I don't get it. You're still topless, but having small stickers over your nipples makes you feel you can do the shoot? Strange. Jan 10 13 01:42 am Link I don't see this as normal but as a sign of the model's discomfort - unless there's some other reason for the pasties (like a burlesque theme). Since it's implied, I suppose you can shoot with the pasties hidden, and nobody will know that they're there - but the model's discomfort will still show in her facial expressions. Unless the intent is to show the model in a defensive posture, I prefer to shoot impliedz with the nipples, etc., hidden "naturally" by the pose - by the arms, for example, or maybe by the model's knees. Even using her hands to cover up is a defensive position, and that becomes part of the tone and mood of the photo. It's not uncommon in a nude or implied shoot for something that the model doesn't want to show to be exposed in a few photos. In fact it happens a few times in almost every shoot. It may even occur with open-shirt or open-jacket shoots and with corsets or very low-cut dresses. Often I'm not aware of it until I'm editing the photos. In those cases, I just mark those images as rejects and (unless creative cropping would fix those photos) delete them. It's helpful if the model feels that she can trust the photographer to handle these situations appropriately. Jan 10 13 02:08 am Link Is it some sort of fetish? Jan 10 13 09:26 am Link I was hired by a woman to do her maternity images. She wore large pasties, and ended up paying me extra to retouch them out where they were visible. The part I found strange, was that the pasties were the only thing she was wearing. Not that this was a problem. She and her husband were thrilled with the images, and I got paid. A happy ending for all. Jan 10 13 03:13 pm Link No. That is ridiculous. Jan 19 13 01:05 pm Link One model i had wore these transparent pasties. "they won't show, i promise", she said. they totally showed and it was a bitch to retouch. Jan 20 13 01:23 pm Link I'm kinda on the fence here. If her wearing something to cover her nipples makes her feel a bit more at ease, then there is no harm with her doing it. If the pictures are suppose to be implied you won't see them in the final product anyways. But I also agree that if she really is that uncomfortable to where she can't even be topless on set, it will probably show up in the final product. Tough call!

Just get a model who shoot nudes and do the implieds. Jan 20 13 04:41 pm Link dbrealey photography wrote: I'm afraid she's already uncomfortable hence the need for pasties, so maybe you should re-consider your shoot. Jan 20 13 05:27 pm Link If she is uncomfortable with even the slightest chance of showing her breasts why even do an implied shoot? I agree with everyone above who said that it would be showing in the photos. Jan 21 13 12:41 pm Link This is very simple. 1. Hire an model that will pose nude. 2. Shoot implieds. A 'deer in the headlights' expression on any model is probably the biggest killer of an otherwise decent shot. If she's this worried about it, she's probably not going to work out for this shoot.

They will push it to the edge and you get much better results.
