This question is geared more towards the members from Ma/NE area.
How can one get nude/erotic photos of themsleves done. I dont know anyone who I could trust to take such photos of myself. So I was wondering if anyone knew of any Boston area or I will even widen my travel area to New England professional photographers to pay for the photos to be done.
Unless anyone knows of an ametuer photographger who does these knds of photos.I cant find anyone so any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a digital camera I can use and didnt do to bad on my profile photos but finding someone else to snap away would make it easier to pose better.

Why pose for pix? Some of the best pix around are natural shots.
If you really fell you need to pose maybe looking for a photographer is the wrong place. Might try a local college or university photography center and see what you can find there. Sure there would be some young budding photographer there that would do it and who knows what else you may find there too. :2cents:

Photography for Perverts (http://www.amazon.com/Photography-Perverts-Charles-Gatewood/dp/1890159530) by Charles Gatewood focuses on BDSM photography, but is an excellent resource for the aspiring adult photographer of any persuasion. In it, he has a chapter on finding models. You could use any of these tips, and in reverse approach a photographer. The main sections in the meeting models section are:
Go to Kinky Events
Camera Clubs
Look and Act Professional
Money Talks
It Pays to Advertise
Networking
"Spies"
Launch a Model Search By Mail
Create Your Own Web Site
Find Models Online
I found more photographers than I could ever use advertising their services for nude photography in the Eros Guide (http://www.eros-guide.com/map/). In my area, there are tons. I was surprised to find no listings for Boston though!
A Google business search for nude photography will get you a listing of galleries, but the galleries in turn could get you names of photographers looking for subjects. Do a search for private local photographers and check out their websites. Some will display examples of nude portraits they have done, and you will know they can be approached.
Another excellent resource is Tom Mayes Photography (http://www.tm-photo.com/homepage/hpindex.htm). He has a whole section with advice on how to find an erotic photographer, and what you can do to be the best model you can for an erotic photographer. Click on modeling tips.
Hope this helps!

You might just pull out a phone book and just look up things like sex related stores and see if they also develop photos.

You could set up a video camera and with a video capture card record directly to your PC. Then you can freeze frame certain exceptional angles. The beauty (or the drag) of it is that you can do it by yourself. Now that I think of it, have someone else video you :)

I know Im not in your area, but I do human form photogrpahy.
Look on artist websites like http://www.deviantart.com
Many photographers are willing to take someone's nude phtoso for them (for a fee of course).
I would do them for you but I live too far away.
