    The human body is an interesting bit of evolution. So is sex, by the way. Don't dismiss anything just yet.

      Hi Melodeath<BR>I wouldn't be able to that without a release from the individual(s). This Studio would soley be for Private Photo Sessions and they get the pic's and the Memory Cards. We have two nudist colonies nearby that I think would be beneficial to the Studio. Other pics would be of Newly Wed's, Biggest Looser type photos and etc. If I can do this, I do have the equipment, and the photos are released for me to post at my descretion, YES, you will see them. I am certain if I were over in a war somewhere, I'd love a half nude or full nude photo of my wife if done at a reputable private studio. I am working on it, I just need lots of positive feedback. Thanks!....

    if nothing is covered, would you consider it porn?

    • Never, unless they display themselves as in a provocative way such as MB and etc. Art Nudity is your photo's taken in natural positions and in beautiful settings.

    At first I thought this was about Photoshop and was confused at the title. It's called a photo studio, not SHOP. And with all this dialog, its just doing artistic nudes. Whats perverted about that? I'm a photographer and I love the beauty of women. Totally normal.

    any special reason you want to exclude sexuality in any way?

    porn is one thing, but erotic pictures are their own genre, and strongly interwoven with nude pictures.

    If i want sexually loaded pictures of my and my friend taken, why refuse? you don't have to "promote" sexuality, and you don't need to use sex-stuff to add income, but splitting sexuality from nudity is hard, especially if you use "art" to draw a deliberate line that seems right in YOUR mind.

    • Hi TerryVie, take up Nude Photography as Art, when you finish your classes come back on line here and let us know your outcome. I sure hope they can teach you the difference between Porn and NUDE ART. Good Luck on your scores.

        "a Nude Photography Studio without sexual overtones."

        sexual overtones DO NOT EQUAL porn

        good luck finding that out yourself.

          just to give an example, me standing behind my girl, cupping her breasts with my hands to cover them while she covers herself "downstairs" and i am covered by her, possible locked in a kiss, and it's clear we are both fully nude, but you see nothing.

          For me thats heavily laden with a sexual overtone, but FAR from porn in any way, falling under erotic art FOR ME.

          I don't claim, and never did, to be a specialist on this, so please feel free to enlighten me, as i'd love to understand. Why is that not sexual, or why is it porn, or, if it is sexual but no porn, why will that not be ok in your studio?

          • Hello TerryVie. Nice comment, you are right. That picture may be taken and would fall under Nude Art. As long as there is no penetration, self pleasure or stimulation, then we haven't crossed the fence so to speak. Now if you are holding your erect penis in your hand clearly shows this is not art. All actual art is art done in it's normal/natural state. I know what your saying now and appreciate your return comments. Thank you TerryVie!.........

              What if me nude, holding my erect penis in my hand "is" my natural state?

              You are welcome, i am glad we finally understood each other :)
              I just got hung up on that "no sexual overtones" in your poll and didn't understand. As for the picture, i'm female, so i sure hope there's no erection on that shot. ;)
