yes we're just shooting for non-nude idol, fashion magazines now.
the early days, I tried to creat adult websites with our models but
most of our girls refused to shoot nude photos.
some was ok. We shot them and purchased some licenses from other photographers like Koji Yokoyama at Graphis.
and I visited tons of management, agency companies and tried to hire AV models.
sooo expensive...
but the most ugly thing was legal problem.
I believe that we need to have full 2257 docs to import adult content to america but all docs are written in japanese and incredibly, there are quite a number of under age models(16~18) in AV biz.
also I could't find ccard proccessing companies in japan that accept foreign credit cards for adult website.
so I postponed my project and the future of the project remained uncertain.
anyway, me and my partners founded a studio, had investers.
we needed to do job.
we have keep shooting softcore photos and have been subcontract work for Idol magazine publishers.
got very busy days but have been doing great job, result was so good.
all of our staffs love these stuff.
especially our young photographers are very propessional at these concept.
I'm sure We're gonna expand our studio soon and advance into major studio group for J-pop soon. ;)
sorry for my bad english I can't give a full detail of our story in english.
thanks.
