I met a couple who asked me to take photographs of them and of the woman separately, and it came about through them seeing that I was quite serious about the quality, and through meeting me and feeling comfortable with me. I think that's what it boils down to in the end - trust.

The only stranger I have had offer to take a nude picture of me was a young lady in a pizza restaurant.

Hut or Express? Obviously not Domino's.

CHM Montalivet actually so it was not exactly daring.

Ah well.

I suspected that there was probably a more mundane explanation. I couldn't see the typical girl in a pizza restaurant here volunteering to take you piccie even if you were mad daring enough.

So, Mr Gough needn't worry about competition for the limelight just yet. 😀

Quite right - but I thought I'd make the most of it in my first post.  ;D

After a life time of being behind cameras, I now have fun being in front of my cameras.  When I used to have a studio, I did a fair amount of nude portraits.  Most of my work was done through referrals from other nudists and I was able to take nudes of singles, couples and families as well.  Being nude also during the shoot made my clients comfortable and secure.  Now most of the time I take nudes of myself around the house or on trips using a self timer. 

I've done a lot of self portraits, and quite a bit of experimenting with different types of clothing as well as nude. I think it would be pretty amazing to both take photos of a model (any willing victims out there?) and to have my picture taken too.

I prefer to take pics than be in them, my wife loves posing for photos.
It would be nice to get some pics of us together but always cautious as to who we ask on the beach! A friend from chat hopes to join us when the weather pics up so hopefully get some this summer. As to posting we are of the view if we post them we are open to them doing the rounds so we are careful as to what we show! :police:

Well if you ever need a photographer please get in touch. I will even try my hardest not to worry about light settings and shutter speeds in the process. I am from Eastbourne area and would relish the chance to snap some naturist photos of you both as the opportunity to do so rarely comes along.

P.s. hope you hade a great holiday....... I'm very jealous!

I've used a £20 remote on my Lumix GF1 for some time, when not with a girlfriend abroad, and as a sometime photographer have done the job for others. As I think someone said, it's very much about trust and instilling confidence, particularly about how the images are going to be used. For one couple I simply handed over the memory card (not at gunpoint!) but others were happy for me to adjust things, cropping and so on, on p/shop first. I love doing it and would be more than happy to do more.

A couple of years ago I was taking some shots of myself in a forest - where I'm happiest (it must be an evolution thing) - thinking I was miles from anywhere, when suddenly a mountain biker tore by, almost hitting the camera. I don't know who was more surprised, him or me!

I'm with Eva - I have a Canon 1100D with a remote to take slf pics although I would like to take some wih others (Lincs and reading area - all included) - the advantage of a remote over a time is that the camera will focus on the subject (you) with self timer - the focus is already set.

Would love to pose for some nude pics and take pics of others. Done self timer pics in past but always look a bit staged, guess it could just be me. lol

If anybody needs a model release form let me know. I have a good one.

I like to pose for photos, it is good fun, natural poses are my fav, especially if the sun is out.

I would be happy if I could find someone to take some pictures, I have tried self timed ones but they usually look wrong. The trouble is that there does not seem many naturists in the area. I don't mind posing as I do lifedrawing classes, and have done for a few years-just getting a photographer seems difficult. Anyone interested?
