Modesty isn't my strong point. Less rude, I'm not rude to people who listen.

Never found a book on shooting porn, seen 100s if not over a 1,000 porn movies.

You're obsessed with the idea that to be a pornographer you need to be a trained or at least knowledgeable photographer. And I'm proof you're wrong.

I have earned money since 1977 and from 1988 my full time living as a pornographer. Never had any real photography training. I picked up tips from editors and other shooters. I used my people skills on models to make them do what was required of them. I made mistakes along the way and paid for them.

The photography skills I needed to shoots stills on film were this. Knowing where to put the strobe lights or use flash on camera or use the daylight. Then knowing how to use a light meter. To give the lighting I wanted.

Then knowing how to focus a camera by looking through the eye piece in the back of the camera or with large format on the top. Lining up the two halves of the split circle to focus the camera.







If anyone doesn't know what they are.

This isn't something you need to read books about or go to college or see films to understand. It's pretty simple to grasp.

Have you earned your full time living as a pornographer and for how long?

Damian is slow in giving me the login to your site, why don't you give a login then I will write an appraisal of what you have in terms of Eroticism and porn. I have done so on your stills and you've failed to show anything to make me think you're anything but an amateur in the field of porn or eroticism.
