I'm sure this is an ongoing debate here, but I'd lve to hear the current feelings from photographers and models, male and female.
In my nude photo experience, I've posed for both full frontal and semi or implied nudes. I'm potentially booked to shoot some additional couples images, and concerned about what would be most acceptable to the industry in general, especially when it comes to find paying jobs and continuing with life modeling.
I'm most comfortable not showing everything, and I feel that in most cases full nudity (male and female) changes the focus of the image from the average viewer. I'm also not sure where this line is between "art" and "adult", though I do believe that male erections and/or the touching of male or female genitalia does cross the line a bit, but I also know there is a huge gray area here.
I've posted both types of images in my port here, and it will be interesting to see the reaction. I'm just not sure what the general feeling is from models and photographers on this, or if I should take the images off.
Thanks in advance-your thoughts are appreciated, fell free to PM me here if you would rather.
