Everybody has his or her take on nudity.

Some models want an image that makes them look nude, but don’t want to be nude in front of the camera. Thea doesn’t mind being nude, but doesn’t want images that are explicitly nude. If you read some of my other posts, you will recognize my contatsnt refarin about taking the time to talk to the model. Nudity is not just in the mind and eye of the beholder.

The chair the model is sitting on is in my home office. To stage left is a medium-sized south-facing window that depending on time of day and year, can create interesting light. I asked the model to sit comfortably in the chair and picked a camera angle then asked her to slowly move her hands and legs until she got into this pose. It’s a different way of posing models but created a photo we both liked. Photograph made with Canon EOS D60 set at ISO 800, 135mm SF lens at f/3.2 with 1/200th using natural light coming from the window.
