Poll - Public Scenes

[danielle_ftv]

I was in the news (article) recently for public porn. My concern about shooting in public has always been that I would get caught and arrested by the police. This article has intensified my fears and has made me ambivalent about shooting in public again. It's unfortunate because I love the way that video and photos look when shot outside. I also love the variety of locations I can pick from and the fact that I don't have to spend $200 to $500 to rent a resort room for shoots. I do think that I will continue to shoot in public but that is also going to depend on my photographer as well. If he isn't comfortable shooting outside (which he really wasn't to begin with) especially after this news article comes out then I'm not going to be able to shoot in public. I'm curious to see what the opinions are on this.

I guess they'll be on the lookout for this sort of thing in the future. It's hardly worth getting busted for it. You can post lookouts but some "concerned citizen" is almost sure to spot something. I would urge caution. What about getting out of town? Love your giggle.

I like the lighting of being outside but if its not on your private property (covered/fenced in backyard, etc.) then i find that the model (you or someone else) is distracted trying not to get caught and makes it tougher for them to get off. or the scene is getting very good and then gets cut short because someone approaches. so it has never been my favorite. i would rather see a model really get into the moment and loose herself more than seeing her outside.

I really enjoy the public scenes and hope that she will continue doing them

... but only if she's safe.

I stated earlier that I like your public shots, but you should only do them when it's safe for you.
Right now with that media attention, I think it would be wise to stop public shootings for, say, half a year, until the currently blown dust settles. People tend to forget after a while.

I assume Rob will continue shooting in (semi) public places, presumably with heightened awareness and attention to the surroundings. I'd wait for his experiences in the future before considering whether to pick up public shootings.

The public flashing had brought me to FTVGirls and to DanielleFTV, but I can live without that, especially knowing it would endanger someone I love.


What I find a bit puzzling is that mostly women complained in the comments. There were a couple of men chiming in, but also a couple of them stating they were o.k. with it. Not a single woman, though.

I like outdoor shoot but whether they are public or not I really don't care. Personally I would like to see scenes in the great outdoors. But I realize the extra expense involved may prohibit that. But some b/g in the local desert would be nice.

I say if you're uncomfortable with it, don't do it.

Thanks for the input everyone. I really appreciate the fact that you guys took the time to tell me your feelings and thoughts on this topic. It's something that I've been thinking about quite a bit for the past several months. I will still continue doing public scenes. Let's hope that I never get caught. Send positive "look the other way" energy my way.
