ignore me. the other me.

haha i'm so dumb sometimes. i thought there was a separate log-in for the forums and the main site, because that's how all the other sites i'm on are. now to get this second one deleted.

mmkay, so i've gotten some pm's from ladies asking for tips on their photos, so in my insomnia i threw this together.

So you want to take an erotic picture, eh? (vs 1.0)

Welcome to that special group of exhibitionists who feel the need to post their parts on the net.

First and foremost, NEVER TAKE A PICTURE BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE WANT YOU TO. Take photos as a way to celebrate your body, your sensuality, and your sexuality- if you're just doing it for some quick compliments and a 'self-esteem boost' there's a good chance you'll end up feeling worse in the end, even if the instant gratification of mindless twits saying you're hot makes you feel good now. (no offense, i don't think any of you in particular are mindless twits. but i'm pretty sure everyone has seen someone around the forums who will essentially say anything a poster wants to hear, just to get in their pants.) don't allow your 'fanbase' to ever talk you into posting more than you're comfortable with- in time, you may well work up to what they'd like to see, but in the meantime, you can be sexy within those smaller boundaries.

Moving right along- this first draft is for people and their timers. first i would recommend setting up the area you're going to use for the photos. be creative. sometimes just hanging a simple sheet behind you will make your photos 100,000 times better. i personally have sheets, plus random bits of fabric i've collect over the years for use as backdrops and seat covers. (sometimes i just use the bare wall. eww. boring, even for me. oh well.) you can get pretty, decent fabric from craft stores year-round for affordable prices. another good investment- though not always easy to find, depending where you are- is a simple dressing screen that will also be a fashionable addition to your bedroom whenever you aren't posing for the camera. i've seen them in furniture departments at most retail stores, and a super-evil-mega-mart will probably have one in stock for relatively cheap. (cheap, cheap, cheap- hey, if these weren't amateur photos, you'd pay a photographer for all this right? so we're saving money since we can.) also, if you have the capability to move around to different rooms or locations, DO IT. variety is hot. after setting up, do several test shots from different angles so you can figure out the best place to set the camera, and figure out if you need to add additional lighting to get the look you're going for. this may take practise, but over time you'll figure out the best way to catch the shadows and what lighting works best in your photo-taking area.

when going out of my way to create fun and erotic photos, i like to build a theme around something for each set. an article of clothing (sexy boots, a new teddy), a prop (fans, wine glasses, etc.) nothing requires that this theme be extremely noticeable in all shots, but having that common thread in there makes for a nice end product, especially if you're like me and usually end up with a ton of extra photos that never see photobucket.

nextly, make yourself up a bit. i wouldn't recommend going out and getting your hair and nails done for every amateur photo set you decide to do, but putting on a little make-up now and then or choosing those perfect sexy earrings can lend incredibly to your sex appeal (people who don't do face shots can still do up their nails and wear a sexy anklet etc.). the viewer of your photos doesn't just enjoy the photos themselves, they enjoy all the preparation that goes into them- they like knowing you made an effort to be visually appealing to them.

now that you're all set-up and dolled-up, you can start snapping shots. do what feels natural for you, you'll get the best photos this way. naturally, i tend to have my lips parted all the time, which is why my mouth is always open in all of my pictures. (i do need to work on that, haha. in the meantime, i guess they stay as they are.) when you go out of your way to try and look sexy, a lot of the times you'll end up looking ridiculous (at least to your own critical eye.) i tend to think of things that make me happy, things that make me feel sexy, and good experiences i've had in the past when i'm taking pictures- just pulling up those memories can put a seductive smile on your face you didn't know you ever wear. hmm, what else? oh yes. play up your best features. if you have gorgeous tits but thunder thighs, emphasize those lovely breasts instead of taking a close-up of your cellulite. (yes, i have cellulite on my thighs, too. :cool: )

as i stated before: DON'T TAKE A PHOTO BECAUSE ANYONE ELSE TELLS YOU TO. confidence will show through in your photos. a spread pussy is only as sexy as the person behind it- and if that person is an insecure and unhappy one, that pussy loses all its appeal to me, and a lot of other people. some people, such as myself, don't find it sexy as a general rule to just spread your lips on cam- but if you do, all the power to you, work it the way that only you can. the only thing i would say here is to remember to mix it up a little bit- YOU are more as a person than your cunt, or your tits, or your ass, and yes, you are more than just your cock, fellas. (don't even get me started on you, i'm disappointed daily to see a dozen cock-in-hand posts. where has the creativity gone? am i the only one who remembers that horrid little psychological factor about how women aren't quite as visually stimulated as men? i like a personality with that penis- oh, but don't take that the wrong way. i still don't want your penis, i just want to know that there are men behind those suckers.) and if you aren't comfortable showing your face, you can crop it out later, or you can use all sorts of angles and shadows to see that it nevers really shows up in the first place. (faceless? wooo, creepy. DUN DUN DUN)

okay, and last of all, this is more of a personal note than anything else: when i see someone title a thread with 'please be kind' or 'don't be cruel', i pretty much refuse to look at it. it goes back to that whole confidence thing. if you're posting because you need self-validation, not only am i not interested, i'm also more inclined to not care even if you are attractive, and i certainly won't jump on the bandwagon with compliments (though i won't go out of my way to say something mean, either.). you have the courage to post these pictures, and not a lot of people can say that! that should help you feel better right there. but if you're still worried about the nay-sayers and what anyone has to say about you, it might do you some good to spend more time loving yourself for what you are and what you have. i believe everyone has something unique about them that is incomparably beautiful, it's just a matter of learning how to best express and display it.

Hello 17. I must say I really enjoy what I've seen so far. Who takes your pics for you? Your pictures seem to capture a certain honesty, where it seems more like you are sharing a moment with us rather than posing for a picture. Anyhoo- just my two cents, keep up the great work!
 
That guideline really should go up as a Sticky.

Edited to say

You can't delete, only modify. Just crop out the text and put something in like "Oops. Double Post."

M...... don't delete it, leave it there as it can only help others who may want to know, it's an honest mistake and it may be seen from someone who can use it and may not come across it whereever else you've posted it ...... i dind't read the whole thing yet, but i've done likewise, posted advice through PM's from those who've asked, mostly males but some females and have both enjoyed being able to help and been joyed to see the advice taken and used and for threads to start to become more successful.

In short, don't touch it, it can only help Lit with better quality pics as yours are wonderful.


Adding - Editing - YOur fist point is such a wonderful one to make, wow, very well said, well put and very good advice - and that's coming from somone who's cool remember ;)

thanks, it was mostly just the switching back and forth to edit out the other posts that screwed me. hahaha.

it's so weird for me to be on a site where alts are allowed. i guess it's too big to watch like a hawk though. i don't know why anyone would ever want a ton of accounts for one place, not only is it confusing, but i could never put up a different face under each name.
 
Holy s...... Wow. The new pictures are amazing 17! Left me breathless. You truely are one of the most beautiful women on lit!
 
Woah, I like, I like a lot...so stunning..talk about photogenic..I could take pictures of you all day :devil:
 
Beautiful, stunningly beautiful... I don't know how else to describe such amazingly erotic and sexy pics. Thank you so much for sharing.

Hugs and Kisses
