Tickle Photoshoot

[TempstofLaughtr]

TMF has inspired me to come out with a laughing/tickle mini-photo series. If you are in San Francisco PM me if you want to take part. I have a couple people lined up.

Couple things to know

>it's erotic b/w photography only
>(very)-light bondage
>sensory deprivation (probably only blindfold)
>partial nudity (if you are not comfortable with your face showing there are artistic solutions)
>men & woman welcome

I have two projects I am working on but the tickling mini-photo series will hopefully be shown in a small (getting it's start) counter-culture magazine with a small section dedicated to fetishes. There is no website up yet for it.

All the best with that one 🙂

Why black and white? Why not use color then take out the color, just in case the color ones come out really great, you won't be stuck with just black and white? (I've always liked color better, I guess I'm biased, but I've also learned to shoot things perfect from the start, then manipulate later.)
What type of outfits will you use, is there a theme?

If this works out, and you already have an idea, you should ask one of the story writers here for permission to use their story as a basis for a few picture sets.... I doubt they'd mind.

Good luck, I hope the magazine accepts them!

>Gutter punks in a junk yard.
>Pixie hanging from tree limbs
>Restrained from shower spout with water running


They are what I can afford on for a low budget shoot.

oh true about the color....

i don't know why i added that. well i think i was thinking about how they would be after manipulation.

Oh really now!?
I think you can accomplish MUCH more, depending on where your interests are.
You could use guerilla tactics, as many photographers do. You need a picture of a girl in a tree? Go find a park or national park with a tree, put her in it, snap, you're done!

National parks in Louisiana, for example, charge an admission fee of....$2. Most fishing holes are free.

I'll give you one that I'd love to see: Let's say you want a sexy librarian walking around the library in her pantyhosed feet. Just have the girl dress up in a skirt and hose, and you both ...go to a big library. Which are always slow, but you may have to scope it out before hand. College libraries are sometimes larger than public ones. You can bring bags into any library, unless they're assholes, and I've been to about 7 libraries, and you just walk on in. Go at a slow time, find an empty area, and have her pop her shoes off and start playing with books. Snap away - free photoshoot!
Set your camera to silent, obviously...hopefully you are using a digital camera! Get at ground level, medium level, high up, whatever angle of the sphere you'd like. She can even walk over to a table and kick her feet up on a stool, or just sit cross legged, with you snapping the whole time.
(I wish some video producers would go out of their way like this sometimes. Paradise Vision and Laughing Gas Zone trys sometimes, and video cameras are silent....)
She goes home after work, and gets tickled on the couch, chair, whatever. Or you can shoot with two girls at the library, like they meet, play footsie, then they decide to go home and tickle each other.

Wait until after Halloween in October, scoping out the best stores, because some sell cheaper costumes than others pricewise, not quality wise, and some sell all their sock, while others ship it all away the next day. Save up money, and stock up on cheap costumes. You can use them for 30 years if they're saved in big plastic containers you can purchase at WalMart for like, $5 to $10.

Look around at every spot in your house, kitchen, living room, car... I've seen independent films shot at people's houses that only bother to use two rooms.
Check out photography books and ake some of their ideas for places to shoot.

Good luck!
