Doing Nude & Erotic Photography: Professionalism

This morning, I saw the following video interview with a photographer who does “erotic photography”:

The comment that caught my attention was this:

There are times when I am shooting and I have a camera and I get home and I start editing the pictures and I’m like ‘wow, that was really hot. I can’t believe I was there!’

When you’re shooting a fine art nude or erotic photography session, you have to have your mind fully on the task at hand; to get good, professional results, you have to be all-business in both your approach to the session and your interaction with the model.

It’s only afterward–when you’re editing the photos–that you can finally let your professional “guard” down and let in the emotions and sensations that would normally accompany such a social situation, at least a little bit…:-).

@RKJ65 It's so easy to "game" the system to get social media followers. Also, I assume lots of people following trump weren't doing it because they actually supported him. People who take these numbers to mean the election was fraudulent are complete morons.

@BrandonStraka Number of social media followers means absolutely nothing.

Apparently the #GOP is much better at *criticizing* others trying to get stuff done than they are at actually governing and getting stuff done themselves, especially when they had the power to do so.

Here's a pet peeve: even as a photographer, I don't give a sh*t what camera and lens you used for the shot. Is it a good or interesting shot? That's all I care about. I guess if you're taking photos strictly for beginning photographers, then maybe it makes sense..(?) #photography
