A photographer reached out to me through social media asking me to shoot with him sometime. Although I’d love to have a shoot for myself, does this seem sketchy? He’s taken photos for friends i know and they said he seemed cool and laid back. They also mentioned that he took a while to send them their pictures and wouldn’t respond before sending them. Anyway, just wanted to hear some thoughts on this.
Haha I get you about the pronunciation of the word.
The thing is there’s creeps and weirdos on both sides women just make more noise about it. Men brush it off and keep it moving.
As for why do boudoir even if the pay isn’t as much, it’s not always about bread (money). If that was the case I wouldn’t take photos of half the things I capture, most of what I do is because I’m interested in it and I like the look of it so I want to freeze that moment. It’s no different with boudoir or capturing a beautiful woman. Inspiration starts with an interest, nothing wrong with that or admitting to it.
The whole label of men photographers being just in it to be creepy is lame, even the OP’s own friends vouched for the guy after having shoots with him.
