I have to admit, what I call "goth" in my content is more a matter of "Ian likes it" than any other definition. Also, not all of my shoots are particularly goth, as I like to try different things. Still, I think there is a conceptual continuity to what I do. I know that plenty of real goths like our sites, as do mainstream people fascinated by goth stuff.
As for the softcore aspect... I think the tease is great. If you keep showing more and more, you never win... Look at all the extreme hardcore shit out there. I can't compete with that, and I don't want to. So I show sexy photos of beautiful girls. Sometimes there is pink, sometimes not.
I do what the models are comfortable with, and in return I get some amazing models who don't work with anyone else, or at least not many photographers. Works for me, I don't want to be "that scummy photographer guy".
And yeah, you can tell a goth when she's naked. If you think its only about clothes, you're missing something. There is a style, there is an attitude, there is a community, and there is a lot more. Not all of it disappears when the girl is naked... Shadow Jen is as gothy naked as she is clothed, the same with Undine.

true, but I know surfers no matter what want to see some pink unless its truly a SOFTCORE site, so make that known or youre setting yourself up for LOTS of chargebacks.
Just a thought dude. (experience) |
