"No photographer/videographer worth their salt would ever distribute material without the subject consent, so there should be some form of contract and a model release. My advice would be to find a (real) professional if you want professional results, or find someone you trust implicitly to take them with your own equipment. And thats before you even get started on who owns the copyright, but thats a whole other can of worms..." This is the best advice you’ll get. I take photos on a semi pro basis, any hint that I was duplicating the images would be the end. Look for Togs who have their own websites so you can see their work. It’s bloody hard work for the Tog too, they won’t be interested in being involved in the shoot on the other side of the lens | |||

"I am a Pro photographer and the owner of the images (always) is the photographer and they can do whatever they want ...there are no valid contracts (model release) which could help you (and can you really afford a few grand on a civil case!!) The thing is if you just want nice pics then i could use anyone's camera but to make them but if you want pro then i would need ot work on them after wards...it really does depend on what you want. I would go as far as saying anyone with an IPAD can get top quality images and there are enough applications to alter the images to make them look pretty. (its about composition and elements of an image...not the size of the lens!) " | |||

Any suggestions or reassurances on this kind of thing? X " Depends what sort of quality end product you want really. If you don't mind a shoddy job then anyone with a camera should be able to help you. However if its a proper job you need then either you just have to find a pro and ask. When I was working I was asked by a quite a few people both male and female. Naked shoots happen all the time so for a decent professional he or she would be ok. Now if you wanted some interaction then that would be different | |||

"I am a Pro photographer and the owner of the images (always) is the photographer and they can do whatever they want ...there are no valid contracts (model release) which could help you (and can you really afford a few grand on a civil case!!)" I’m also a professional photographer and your statement isn’t entirely accurate. By default, copyright belongs to the photographer but, and this is a big but, can be contracted out to a third party. So the OP could employ a photographer and have negotiated the copyright issue. (It’s a big issue which the majority of the public miss understand). The contract and model release are two entirely different instruments which do different things. I’ve done a huge amount of this type of work for porn sites, models, etc, and the legal issues don’t have to be complex, but do need to be understood! | |||

"It always amazes me how these threads always bring out "pro photographers" who have one or two out of focus, badly composed photos on their profile. No genuine photographer, pro or amateur would post a substandard image anywhere. Our advice is to browse this site for photographs of the type and quality you would like and approach the owner(s) of the profile. " Ultimately it's about trust and respect. I've taken photos and had photos taken of me. I've not had problems either way as we agreed on usage. One lady did change her mind about having her pics online so I just deleted them from the site for her. Obviously someone else could have downloaded them in the meantime but she understood that. Some amateurs, like me, welcome the opportunity to practice. But getting someone to model depends on the trust being there. If I abuse that then I've only shot myself in the foot as no-one will want to model for me. Good luck with the shoot whenever it happens! | |||

"Just remember that pros will not be taking the images on their own profiles! Any "pro" worth their salt can use a tripod and timer or wifi controller. There are photographers who specialise in self portraits. It isn't difficult." It isn't difficult But it seems pretty bonkers to me quite frankly why anyone is wanting or needing pro shots to be used on your profile on here. I mean ffs come on !!! Its already been said above that anyone with a decent camera can achieve quite good results however a pro will yes have all the lighting kit required for a full on glam shoot if you want it, but it comes with a cost and risks. To suggest that any so called togs on here are either bogus or aren't any good if their profile pics aren't very good is also a load of crap. We live in the real world retired or not and will not have countless studio shot nude pics of ourselves in the archives, everyone uses gash quickly shot pics to get their profiles up and running ………… don't they ?? | |||

" This is actually incorrect, if you are paying a photographer and have the correct contract in place, they copyright transfers to the client. A photographers ownership of an images is not always set in stone. I'd go with the earlier suggestions however of providing your own memory cards so the photographer never takes the images away with him. Unless you want them edited that is, then there is definitely a level of trust required unless you're also in a position where you can provide a computer and software! | |||

"These pictures aren’t going on display anywhere arty are they ? " The OP was concerned about privacy, particularly with regards to the images use afterwards. Image ownership and copyright is hugely misunderstood. If a take a portrait of Jane, and give her a print of said image, she owns the physical print. But as photographer I retain copyright. Without Jill’s permission, I cannot use said portrait commercially for example, as a face shot for a beauty adverting campaign. Likewise, Jill can not scan the print, copy it, plaster it all over Facebook, etc... ...unless by contract we have agreed on something different. Understanding this is important. Always read the small print. | |||

"What about the photography events they have in the clubs? " I've never been into a club(swingers) I suspect they still need attendees approval upon signing up. They just can't take photos of you and share them. This is only permissible in a public place where you don't need permission. | |||

"What about the photography events they have in the clubs? " On certain events Jaydees have a photographer in who does mini shoots for those that wish to participate... these are either in a private room or a designated area. Anybody that doesn’t want to be photographed just stays away from that room or area. The shots are amazing, some are on my profile. The pics are then emailed to you afterwards and then deleted. They go nowhere else. This is also free of charge for anybody looking for nice fab photos. He also does private shoots if you want something particular. | |||

"The amount of "pro" photographers who turn up on fab is astounding. But where are your pro photos? I've had so called pros on here ask to take my photos. I've made up to 70 an hour modelling so it's not happening. I asked one what made him a pro? It was because he had a dslr. It was the most basic one available. Camera does t make you a pro. If you think you are pro then post pro level images" I totally agree. Also, in my honest opinion any pro offers service for isn’t pro I would never offer my service for free except probably as a gift for someone in a special event. I get paid well for my time so won’t mix that with being on here. Anyway now adays phone camera can do a sufficiently good job to produce photos enough to see on phone screens. Use a timer and take your own. Many lighting options could work with that as well. So no need for a photographer except if you are into real modeling. | |||

Answers to questions regarding kit, contracts, image usage, licensing, etc are all out there. There are plenty of professional boudoir photographers who will be open to shooting more explicit content. Go down the professional route and you're 99.9% likely to be safe and have no concern over images being used without consent. One case of unauthorized use would kill any business and you would have a cast iron case for legal action. Go down the 'Fab pro' route and you have no protection at all. You get what you pay for.

I really can't see images of being any use to me Any one want someone to do pics Approach a model site. They will do them for free and wouldn't risk releasing them as their rep is at stake | |||

"Use a friend? " Always an option if trust is there and they're capable. There are still a few pics floating a round Fab that I took for people over 5 years ago. Taken on my kit and edited on my laptop. But they are friends so there was no issue re trust. Wouldn't recommend using anyone you don't know well enough to have 100% trust in though. Even friends fall out and you've no comeback. Certainly never worth taking someone on face value that offers via a message or forum post though. A | |||

"Hi the post became live again and we've had a few messages ... thank you. There's a few pro togs who offer to do some shots but the thread has kind of put us off. The comments are great and offers wonderful but the compromise of privacy via Technology seems risky at best. Also some of the thread posts about ownership and image rights are a bit scary for us... we don't want to end up being on the net if you catch my drift. It was intended as a fun thing to do without fear pictures are kept or stored or even used for other than our own personal use. I suppose a trusted Fab person with a mind for fun and a good eye to take pictures on your own device is the only way to go.?.... Them being naked too of course so we can be certain they have no secondary devices on person. " You are best looking on a model photography site. I am a model and I would never dream of using someone on here as you can well imagine them wanting more. A proper photographer would not and you could trust them a lot more The will also turn up with decent kit and not some crap from Argos pretending to know their stuff. I've done stuff a lot higher level than I advertise as it's for their own collection .you have to trust some people | |||

As someone said even if it's your best friend doing the pics always put it in writing signed by both parties that the material is strictly private. | |||
