OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

I need ALL honest opinions!

Choice A: Go with a Female photographer but she is the parent of a student, don't know $$ from her yet.

Choice B: Go with the male photographer that I have never met (found him on Craigslist)...his "work" seems very good from what he has sent me

Choice C: GlamourShots

Re: OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

I would say A or C - not the guy from craigslist.

Only b/c my DH would freak if a guy took those photos (and I would feel uncomfortable) and with glamorshots at least you know it's a reputable business (but do a BBB search anyway).

Re: OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

Re: OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

C definitely


if any guy saw boosh like that, i'd beat him and be really pissed at her

and as for the parent of a student, all you need to have happen is to have some sort of run-in with this parent over her child and she'll have the goods on you and can bring them to your supervisor's attention

Re: OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

C. I don't think it's a appropriate for a parent of a student to see you naked. As far as the guy from Craigslist, I know brad would hate it if I posed for another guy.

I would pick to do glamour shots. craigs list is great but not for something like this. You don't know what type of person this could be.

Good luck!

Re: OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

Personally, I would go with C

A- I wouldn't want someone who knows me from professional life taking pictures of me

B- WHoa! I would be too petrified to be any amount of naked with someone from the internet

C-Reputable company- My choice

Re: OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

Hi Shana!!! I did get your FM and I will look and see what I have to send you, as far as whats on negative. My husband had his surgery, thats why I didnt get back to you sooner.
My feeling is this..if its a parent and she does this sort of thing for a living,..no harm in that..just be sure you get the negatives etc so she has nothing of you. Are there any photographers by you that specialize in Boudoir Photography?
I definately think you should do it..its not for everyone and those that say save your money..its a personal opinion. Dex was THRILLED with my pictures and Im glad I did it. When Im 50, Ill still be glad I did them. YOU are the only one who knows what your husband will like and I think its great you are doing them!
Another option is doing them yourself. Paint shop pro has AWESOME editing and can make ANY picture look very professional. I can even burn my software for you and mail it to you if youd like. Its very easy to use. You can order wedding style professional albums online and you can choose how many pictures you want to include. Please know if I can help ya in anyw ay!

Re: OK...I NEED to make a decision re: doing sexy photos...

A- would just be uncomfortable for me.

B- is an option, but I would have to meet the person first to make sure that I felt comfotable with him. The fact that it is a guy would not really bother me as long as he is professional. It would not bother DH either.

C- seems like the easiest choice because it is a company that has a reputation.
