What are your favorites that you refuse to shoot ?

Anything with caution tape, railroad tracks (unless the image can bring a new perspective), etc.

I will not ever ask a model to put a belt around her breasts. I see a lot of that lately. I just don't get it.

I will not do a self portrait holding my camera over my eye. Almost every photographer I know has one. It's so overdone, I can't stand it.

Yes Its dumb, Just like holding a gun... oops Im guilty:-)

but will never do the camera over the eye... Sad And scary to see how dumb us photogs look doing that, I feel for the models...lol

So many of us do it, I'm glad someone agrees with me. I think it looks so cheesy. Lol...

I’m an equal opportunity cheese ball, I will shoot anything, anyway no matter what people think. If the model / client wants it, I shoot it.  Caution Tape, Belts on the boobies, tree hugging, pedals, who cares.  It is kind of surprising how many people still ask for the pedals and caution tape shots. I get at lease 2 a month wanting them. Paying clients as well as models. And don’t forget the over used Harley pics.  And yes, I am shooting that next week, hell maybe I will put some caution tape on the models waist and a belt around her bobbies and toss some rose pedals on her and the bike and have her hold a gun?

Damn, now I will not sleep till I put that combination together for a shot.

Hell... If I'm getting paid, I'll shoot anything (almost anything). But by choice... I'm more than picky. Lol...

I mean... c'mon!

I'm sure it was so awesome and innovative... the FIRST ten times.

PM on your MUA account.

Bondage.  I don't understand the genre.

Me either.  But that's just a personal preference.  Swords are wayyy cooler.

Yeah, some will shoot back.

I am glad that I am not limited by the term "cliche"!

I shoot whatever seems to be right at the time, for me... my art... my clients... the situation.

I let unimaginative people bitch about "cliche" while they often don't come up with something that wasn't already shot about 7.35 Million times within the past 18 months or so, worldwide.

The word "cliche" is such a cliche...

I knew there was a reason i liked you Udo.  Well aside from our similar taste in round apples.  But yeah I've said it before and I'll say it again. People that complain about cliche's are the ones too unimaginative to make that cliche their own.  And everything has been shot before. EVERYTHING.  Multiple times.  So anything you've  shot is cliche at this point, what makes YOUR cliche better than mine?

If I am getting paid a photographer can shoot me in any bloody cliche they choose.
As long as I am not legs akimbo flashing my minge and with a finger placed coquettishly into the corner of my mouth

However, I agree with Udo.  Railroad tracks/caution tape/angel wings/etc. are cliches in and of themselves, but there's it's not inconceivable that one could shoot them in an interesting way.  Except for selective desaturation. I can't conceive of an interestign way to do that.

Sin city has MUCH to answer for!

cliche is o.k. if done well , I have no desire to shoot overlit with an acoustic guitar.. but darkly lit with rats coming out of the guitar would be interesting... or even spiders , and a busted guitar.. or violin...

Point being... don't call me for a shoot in a Motel Sucks , I mean Six , tell me to bring by best evening gown, and then throw me against bad ugly curtians, insist on keeping it in color... and tell me it's great ... cuz its not .... Ever Ever Ever....everything else is a go.. if it is done well.. and is emotive.

Now the W rarely has bad curtains.... neither does the Palmer House...

I love a bad girl with good taste!
