Female Group Naked Professional Photographic Sessions – Next Big Thing! (Apparently)

Well this is interesting, for many reasons, actually… PetaPixel have run a story relating to group female boudoir shots being the newest professional photographic trend. It involves your closest female friends, ones that you may love dearly but not necessarily want to ‘get sexy with’. But is seems that groups, hoardes even, of women want to combine stripping naked with friendly group boudior photographic sessions. I mean, there are lines, aren’t there? And I don’t just mean the wrinkles, love handles and the like, I mean the ‘invisible lines’, boundaries even?

It seems that ‘getting sexy’ with your girlfriends in the interests of photography is all the ‘go’ and we’re not talking thongs or bikinis we’re talking all out ‘nak’d’. I’m not sure who started this ‘trend’, although it was featured on the Today Show (see video below), whether it’s really to do with female empowerment or the pressure of lusty boyfriends/husbands but if you want to find out more, or check out some images take a look here.

We’d love to know your opinions!

    Oh my . . . yeah, I’ll pass. I’m the least prude person I know and don’t have many, if any, body hang-up issues, but I’ll stick with shooting rhinos, flowers and coffee. 😉
