Think About It

Taking creative nude photographs is not just about better techniques, a good model and great lighting. It requires a lot of thought as well.

A key part of the creative process is thinking about why you are capturing an image

  • Nude models are not inanimate objects. How do they want to be depicted?
  • Who will the viewer be?
  • What are you trying to show them, or say to them?

The articles below discuss some of these ideas.

Beyond Glamour Photography

Between glamour photos and the more formal naked figure photography lies erotic, documentary and personal photography. Are these pictures erotica, art or porn?
