A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

hi all! I'm a a 27 year old woman, I recently started photography. I have an Instagram page, I also post in local TFCD groups looking for models so I can practice.

in the past month, more weird people have found me than normal ones. I had one dude who was asking for artistic very close up dick pics, who was clearly nuts so I declined. yesterday I posted to a group looking for a model for a Xmas studio slot I have, and of course within a few hours some guy messages me looking for artistic nudes.

is this a market gap here? or are they just perverts looking to make a move just because I'm a young woman? have you had any similar experiences?

Lots of pervs. I get emails every once in a while like this. I once had a phone call very early morning that went from boudoir for wife —> he’ll be in some shots —> couples shoot —> photos of kids on same day —> child p0rn. I hung up immediately at that request. Couldn’t get his number as it showed up as an unknown number on my phone. I was very young so I didn’t think of calling the cops. There was a local news article about a few photographers getting the same phone call later that week. I NEVER give out my phone number because of that incident. People can only have my number once they’ve already paid.
