Nude Modeling
This group is for all of us who have found the joy of modeling nude, be it for an art class, professional photographer, or a free lance artist. Or maybe you're someone who's always thought about modeling naked for class or artist. Here is where you can share your experience, both serious and funny, or if you're new to it, ask questions to see if it's something you seriously want...
Hello
Return to DiscussionsNew here and wanted to introduce myself. I'm an amateur photographer. Due to the difficulty of locating willing models when needed I have posed for my own camera out of necessity. I am able to do this by using a tripod and the timer function on my camera. I look forward to sharing from my portfolio and receiving feedback both pos and neg in order to grow as an artistic photographer. Look forward as well to making new friends here with similar interest.

Another good method is to use a remote shutter release instead of the timer (or with the timer on a shorter setting). That lets you set up the pose and shot without any uncertainty as to when the shutter will release, and can reduce the anxiety on more complicated shots. Depending on your camera, the remote release can be either Bluetooth (or other radio link) or a hard-wired switch. Either way, it's a useful accessory to have.
