Have you ever posed nude for artists/photographers?

I was wondering how many of you have ever posed nude for artists/photographers and what this experience was like for you?

I have always liked male nude art and started to pose for nude art drawings quite some years ago. It started when I stumbled upon a contact site for artists and models where I posted my profile out of curiosity. After a while I was contacted by a draftsman looking for a model and a few weeks later I had my first posing experience. The setting was in a small studio with a lot of finished as well as unfinished artwork scattered around and the artist was a kind man in his fifties who organised amateur drawing classes for a living. I was in my twenties back then and a bit nervous, but he was very understanding so during the first session my undies stayed on. Nevertheless, I liked the thrill of posing in my undies and was very excited during the entire session, so soon a second session followed in which he had me pose completely naked. I'm not sure why I actually did it because I was still quite nervous about getting an erection, but I think the whole thing appealed to me like a medical exam does: a clothed 'stranger' watching me undressing and then being exposed completely naked in front of him with his eyes scanning my entire body....and feeling the shame & arousal of getting an erection while he is watching and there is nowhere to hide.

I posed many times for this artist and I also posed several times for a couple of his small classes, which consisted only of amateur male draftsman (I guess most of them were gay). Quite frequently I would get a semi or full erection while posing but there was never any form of a sexual encouter or remark about it. However it was quite noticable that poses would take longer while I was erect and of course also that it was quite obvious that everybody was giving it a good look. In between the different poses I would walk around naked in the studio and talk to the artists and admire their work of me...and I definately liked all the attention of being naked among them.

Later, I started to also pose for different artists (draftsman) and as of today I'm still doing this once in a while for some artists that I know for quite some time now. While posing I often still get an erection and actually there are quite some drawings of it as well.

A very interesting and informative post. I certainly enjoy appreciating nude male art. I admire those who pose naked for artists and photographers. It must take real nerve. But, of course, you also need the physique and temprament to be a nude model!!! Even if I had the nerve to do such a thing, I certainly do not have the body for it!!!

Had my mistress snap a few on a few occasions.

On occasion for a request and curiosity to have the feeling of being naked in front of a camera

Yes, for a development study.

No, but I'd like to.

I've chanced upon a number of old 19th and early century photographs of art students at academies posing for end of term group photos. It seems to have been a not uncommon custom for them to be photographed in group along with one of their (favorite) models, who then posed nude among the serious looking art students.

They are really nice and fun to look at and imagine the setting back then. This was apparently not only a Parisian custom, but something done all over various European countries in art academies.

I would like to be photographed naked, but I would like to photograph women erotically

No, but I just took the cover off my car and took a picture of it.

When I was 16 a husband and wife photography team asked me if I would like to model for them. Of course I said yes as I thought it would be fun and exciting. They never said anything about me being naked but a little while into the photography shoot they told me to completely undress for the next set of photos. It caught me off guard and I was a little concerned since we were outside so anyone could’ve been watching or walked up on us.

Most of my time I am the one taking photographs ... but I have done shoots where I am on the other side of the camera and the lens is very seductive and you find yourself in the moment. I've done several nude shoots for photographer / artist friends for their own art exhibits and such. When the internet was new ... I did several nude shoots for a male friend and somehow ... some way ... those sets made their way to the internet and they were in ... high rotation ... for a few years but I haven't seen them in quite some time so maybe they've run their course.

I had not really intended to remove my clothes ... but when you are in the moment things happen and you forget yourself and enjoy letting the lens capture that split second of time that you let others in on your private thoughts. I always tell those I photograph to be themselves ... and to forget the world and I know from the shoots I did that this is the way when you enjoy being appreciated. 🌹

I modeled for a few years in the late 70’s/early 80’s. Fashion/catalog and some runway work for local department stores (regional). I did get offers to do ‘artistic nudes’ but never did them. Closest was underwear ads (bra and panties) for a juniors catalog. At a very low point I did do an amateur night at a strip club and actually enjoyed myself quite a bit. That may have led me in a very different direction if life hadn’t intervened - in a good way.

No I havent but as I recently lost 25kg I think I may have some taken after this coronavirus has settled down

Don't you want before and afters of how you survived it?

If you want to see ... do it ... just keep your face out of it and you may be surprised. 🌹

Back in 2008 I ended up being photographed naked. I was taking this amateur photography class at a community college. I had met this woman in the class and we decided to meet one day and go with each other to assist one another taking photographs for our assignment. After taking photographs, we returned to my house to sit on the deck with a glass of wine and discussed some of the pictures that each of us had taken. I had gone inside to refill our wine glasses and she followed me with her camera. She asked me to pose pouring the wine, holding my wine glass, and sipping the wine glass. After she took those pictures, she said “I want to take pictures of you naked”. I was stunned when she told me that. I had only met her in class about 3 weeks before and our interactions had been as just platonic classmates. I thought she was joking and I laughed. She smiled and laughed with me but then said “why don’t you take off your clothes and I’ll photograph you naked”. I just stared at her not sure what to say, and she told me that it would be fun and she’d always wanted to take erotic pictures of a man nude. I was hesitant but then she urged me to start undressing. It did kinda sound like it would be fun, so I self-consciously began to strip in front of her. She began shooting while I was undressing for her. When I paused taking off my underwear, she laughed and said “those too. You can’t be naked with them on”…and I laughed also. I remember thinking how I felt an awkwardness being fully naked in front of this female for the first time and it didn’t seem to be about us intending to have sex, and it was more about me just being naked for her. But I also felt how thrilling it was to be nude in front of her and her seeing my dick and bare ass for the first time. She began taking pictures of me drinking my glass of wine while naked. She had me pose in different positions and with my back to her to take pictures of my bare ass. Then she moved in front of me and was taking close up pictures of my cock and ball sack from all different angles. I liked watching her studying and focusing on getting the right angle to photograph my cock, and I could feel myself starting to engorge. She had noticed my cock beginning to swell and told me she wanted take pictures of it hard and told me to touch myself. She continued to snap away as I touched myself so she could photograph my erection. She seemed to enjoy taking pictures of my erect cock from all angles. She was right that the nude photography was fun for the both of us. No sex transpired between us having her photograph me nude. Since she did take pictures of me naked, she did agree that it was only fair to let me photograph her naked, which I did a few days later.

Only in my dreams. To bad nobody has the guts to ask me if they want to draw a picture of me naked.

As to being photographed, SORRY, NO WAY... 😜 😉

To be honest I have been nude in front of a camera for quiet a few conquests. Granted most were in the film days which have been long forgotten, lost or destroyed. Guess I was lucky before digital and the internet got as it is today.

Guess I was lucky before digital and the internet got as it is today.

Most people can't even find old printed photographs they know they had at one time in their life, but are now misplaced.

Think how much harder it would be to find a digital photo that has found its way onto the internet. It would be like searching for a photo amid billions of other nude photos. A Herculean task of daunting proportions.

Sign me up for that needle search in yonder haystack first please. ... ha ha

Actually, I did do that once. I was in my twenties and looking to find out what a gay spa is like. I discovered that there was one, hidden discreetly away, in a main street near where I had a rented flat. Well, the short of it is, that I apparently 'seduced' a slightly older guy and invited him (or he invited himself!) back to where I was staying. I found out that he was down from the country, from Mildura, which is a few hundred kilometres from Melbourne. He must have liked me, for after an evening we spent together, he said he had to be going back home but would I come to visit him at Mildura? And I agreed. My next vacation was coming up, and I made plans. I did indeed go up to Mildura on the train, and Ray - that was his name - met me at the station and drove me around the town, then back to his place where I was to stay for a few days. (Interestingly, he seems to have had another young house guest coming to stay there! He must have fancied himself as a juggler!) Anyway, what I remember was that later that evening, when the two of us were alone, he asked if he could take some photographs of me. Gradually, after a few preliminary shots, it became clear that he wanted me to get undressed, to which a certain excitement I was feeling (partly from being so flattered!) made me readily agree. If memory serves, those several nude photos of me are the only ones I've ever had taken. I sometimes wonder what happened to them - and where they are today.

Cause to maybe try to get a hold of him, and ask if he still has them and can share them with you.

If any of you let someone take photos of you, you should always request that they share them with you. Especially if they blindfold you.

@medexam Did you get to keep any of the art? Would you care to share with us in an album?

No, but it had been a fantasy of mine for a long time. Would like to have some boudoir type settings for my wife.

@medexam Did you get to keep any of the art? Would you care to share with us in an album?

I have a digital copy of most of them and I also one or two of the originals.

Actually the album I posted on zity is the only time anyone has taken nude photographs of me.

It was quite fun. I would enjoy posing for more as long as I had control over where the pictures were posted.

Have I ever POSED nude for a photographer or artist?---NO.

Have I been photographed nude?---YES, but that was one time thirty years ago on FILM while at the beach in the Gulf of Mexico during college, and I looked really good --34C, 115 pounds, "nipple length" medium brown hair, small, firm, easy to hold butt, size 2. I still have the same measurements and the same clothes still fit me, but the body does look a little older. I'm pretty certain those images are long gone by now unless someone still masturbates to them in their attic.

Now that I think of it, my playdate friend is an artist, who often does his paintings, drawings, and sketches from photos. He did take photos of me, as he had me arranged on his bed, strapped to it with my genitals exposed. Which in a way could be considered "posing". And I wouldn't be surprised if he created artwork out of it.

I took some topless pictures years ago. Sometimes I wonder what happened to them and if they even still exist today?

When I was 18, I went to an amusement park for the day with my boyfriend. We went inside of one of those instant photo booths and took four pictures of us making out with my shirt and bra pulled up. He was sucking on my boobs in each picture and had his hands all over me. He gave me the last picture of the set, I actually think I may still have it.

Also when I was 19 or 20? I met this older guy while I was working and ended up hanging out with him a few times. I don’t know how he ever talked me into it, but I let him take about 20 Polaroids of me posing for him wearing his roommates lingerie And I pulled down the straps on a few shots exposing my boobs. I knew that no one would ever find out because he was outside my circle of friends, but I get I am just a naughty girl. He gave me one of the pictures, I have no idea what happened to that one.

I have also taken pics of my boobs and set them as my profile pic on my man’s phone for when I call him ?

I have had that thought cross my mind to pose for an artist. Male or female in private let another person do a nude drawing.

No worry, I bought them years ago at a flea market. 😃 😁 😜

Can anyone tell me how you sell things on eBay?
