Naked shoot

[manaheim]

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??

What do you mean focus on one thing? I would shoot in color then convert. If you shoot raw the raw image will still be in color.

That one was fast. Flew right over her.

wow. I see this going bad quick. I feel like if you give this girl full body poses focused on her boob, leaving her face out of focus, she may be slightly irritated...

maybe she has a butter face

No the shoot is for her bf she wants to give her bf sexy naked photos and asked me to take them

God I hope she's at least 18...

Really?? I wasn't aware when you do a nude photo shoot you only focus on one thing. Wouldn't that be a nude booby shoot or a nude ass shoot?

God I hope she's at least 18...

Obviously lol

I'm only 18 too so it's all legal lol

Google is your friend, search "Boudior photos" and C&P ones you like onto a Word doc. Print it out or keep it on your laptop, and use it for inspiration tomorrow. She's your friend, not a client, so she shouldn't mind that you're using a cheat card for poses. It might even help her know what to do.

Sounds like a horn dog Model Mayhem shoot to me.

I was wondering when someone was going there^^^^^^^

I hope he's in the loop on this. Some guys don't like the idea of a stranger visually scrutinizing, let alone photographing, their girl naked. This is especially true if he know you will be retaining the original files.

I am a boy

Ok I will do that thank you..

Google Ruth Bernhardt, she is probably considered the best in the world for nudes. It is all about the lighting and lens perspective vs body perspective.


Also, I realize this is going to sound "up tight" , but please naked photography has a tone of soft porn to it rather than nude photography.
And by the way I taught sex education for 20 years so I am not a prude but find the use of words important in how we describe our work.
