When guys I know look at the nudes I shoot I usually get the same comment "I want your job" or "Do you need an assistant?" I am sure a lot of us get the same comments but it pisses me off and I feel like saying "Really? Do you really want to arive on location an hour to two hours ahead of the time you plan to shoot so that the lighting and set are all set up?" or Okay we have to drive for two hours then hike for another 45 minutes. Spend an houor setting up and wait until the model has her make up done for about an hours worth of shooting time before we lose our light. Are you up for that?"
Women give me a different response. "Can you make me look like that girl in this picture?" To which I explain that there is usually a make up artist on site and there is always post shoot touch ups, so "If you are willing to pay for the make up artist and are prepared to wait for your pictures until I have completeed all the touch ups, and of course you have to do the most work by being comfortable with your own body. Then and only Then can I make the pictures do you justice."
Does anyone else get these types of questions?
