Are you suitable for nude photography?

It is more important that

• You possess self-confidence.


• You own a degree of comfort with your body. Very few of people in the world have “perfect” bodies.


• You are at peace with the thought of nude photography.


• You are an individual with the enthusiasm to explore different perspectives and techniques and committed to producing better results, rather than be a wooden, even if perfect, mannequin.


• You are willing to work on being fluid and graceful in these motions.


• You understand the concept behind what your photographer is trying to do so you are able to co-operate and collaborate.

Before the shoot, you may wish to:

• Discuss your objectives and decide on a theme with your photographer.


• Apply for the day off work so you can be unrushed during the shoot.


• Exercise moderately so you are in optimal shape.


• Receive ample rest.


• Drink plenty of fluids so your body is hydrated.


• Wear lose clothing and possibly no underwear as strap marks into the skin can take a long time to subside and may affect the final shots.
