As a women I love to see artistic rendering of anything, architecture, food, animals, people, including shots of women...its all beautiful, but what I do not like the gratuitous pics of breasts and vaginas that would posted in Hustler via Larry Flynn...
It is when a photographer figures out that you don't need frontal nudity on every photograph and instead focuses on great composition with an air of "mystery". That is when you know you nailed your craft, for it crosses over sexes, races, and age...and is admired as the art form it is.
Be that photographer... we need more of them.
So I ran into a few Tumblr sites today by accident...I was one a religious one (I totally swear, hand to God!) and some how, while looking up photos of women with hairdos with flowers, pretty dresses, etc in that site's archive, I ran into other sites ...and...well...got to some crazy stuff...
But some of it was amazing ...and will effect my own portrait photography style after seeing some of the shots...
I saved some interesting compositions ...and will give you links to the links to the Tumblr sites will be at the end.
Enjoy
Composition wise, I am really digging on the lower angles of these next pics because it elongates the legs, very much like how the illustrator Vargas used to do with his models...it creates an illusion of super long legs ...I really like that...got to try that
And the angle even works when your model is thick.
I love when male photographers find beauty in in the different sizes. I love taking pictures of people who tell me "I am not photogenic" and I have to tell tell them "No dear one, your photographer didn't love you...I promise, I will." and blow them away on how they really are beautiful.
Black and white, love working with it...you create a timelessness...be it 1800s or today, if you know what you are doing, you can create something that will be like a masterpiece in oil.
And of course, the classic "From Behind" shots....
And my personal favorites, the portrait shots...
Yeah, its a girl....
This one too...
I enjoyed looking for the pictures I saved, and some of these sites ...well...its nice to know we still have the freedoms to do pages like this...yet I found it funny that it was the girl owned sites that seemed to have some of the more risqué, questionable stuff...like super young looking girls...and other things like gifs that were ...well ...you will see...
I have never owned a Tumblr site...nice format...
