gsphotoguy 3 Posted May 27, 2012 While my model was in another pose I noticed she had her period. I asked if she was willing to shoot this image and she agreed. Link to comment
drewphotos 0 Posted May 27, 2012 Would be great w/out the string! Would have been/could have been a great shot... too, bad. Great model, too!Cheers,Drew Link to comment
gsphotoguy 3 Posted May 27, 2012 Drew - Thank you for the comment. That, of course, would have been an entirely different photograph.-Mark Link to comment
drewphotos 0 Posted May 28, 2012 Exactly & that would have been great. Just needs no string. Link to comment
John Peri 1,033 Posted May 28, 2012 It's a statement, and why not. I like it exactly as it is. Link to comment
gsphotoguy 3 Posted May 28, 2012 Drew - I understand your feelings, thanks.John - Thank you for the comment. We who photograph nudes have had plenty of times when our models have had their periods. When I make it clear to them that I understand it is perfectly natural and a part of being female worth celebrating they are relieved. When my daughters were both younger I had a no big deal attitude and even went shopping with them for their supplies. I realize this is a photograph that many will find uncomfortable, and maybe that's why I posted it, but I felt it was worth putting out there. I was pleased that this model was willing to let me.-Mark Link to comment
moscow_dosvedena 0 Posted May 29, 2012 Very tacky and there is nothing attractive about the subject matter. Makes me what to gag a bit! And what statement is this suggesting exactly John Peri? I dont get it can you explain? Link to comment
gsphotoguy 3 Posted May 30, 2012 Moscow - I think I stated it in my reply above. To me, menstruation and the presence of a tampon string are no big deal. Your reaction is perfectly acceptable and I appreciate you being honest. Thank you for expressing your opinion.-Mark Link to comment
