Hi Clarissa,

Thanks so much for adding to the conversation. I guess it speaks more to me when an actual model who may have been asked to do it gives her take on how it is. I tend to err on the side of caution when I talk to women as I'm trying to work out posing, almost to a fault, but I do know that in order to get certain poses, one must sometimes be a bit, um, direct, in expressing what they want. I guess I'm heavily influenced by my father who always told me to treat women with the utmost respect and consideration and so sometimes I think I get embarrassed thinking about having to ask a model to make her nipples erect. It's almost like I feel disrespectful to a lady by asking her to do that. I guess it's a fact of life for those models who do bare their breasts for shots. I'll just have to modify my paradigms a bit and realize that professionalism is the key to success.

I hope that drivel made sense. Thanks again, Clarissa, for your thoughts!

Good day!

Mike
