Nude Images a Turn Off for NN Models?
Tony From Syracuse wrote: Non Nude Feb 01 21 09:37 am Link An extreme example but... So a model might be turned off seeing the equivalent of the ceiling of the Sistine chapel (which has full frontal nekkid dudes in it...) or refuse to work with Michelangelo in the creation process? Their choice. I get turned off by self righteous jerks, so I get it. The line between fine art and pornography is a squishy one. Official definitions like “Intended to titillate” can also be applied to good product photography of ice cream. Nudity != Pornography Feb 06 21 03:19 pm Link If she is going to judge you on your shooting nudes, what else might she judge you on? You might be dodging a bullet. You never know. Jun 09 21 05:01 pm Link Be yourself and show what you shoot, especially if it's what you most enjoy shooting. Hiding stuff under the carpet is likely to be perceived as sketchy. It's also unfulfilling, since doing so will curtail the opportunities you would otherwise receive to shoot what you enjoy. In my experience women, in general, are at least equally appreciative of well shot female nudes as men are, even if it's not something they'd choose to do themselves.

There are of course nudes in both my MM and IG so they know I shoot them.
