Bed Scene Created Outdoors

Fooling the viewer is common in photography. For example, this model seems to be laying in bed.

Surprisingly, this photo was created on the back porch of the photographer's house near the Ohio State Campus.

The porch was chosen because the photographer needed to position his camera at least 12 feet above the model to get a full length view. The photographer set up an air mattress on his porch to simulate a real bed. To get an angle directly above the model, the photographer held his camera outside of a second floor window. The model layed down on the air mattress and looked up to the window above.

Once the model got into position, an assistant painted baby oil on the model's pecs and abs.

Cars driving by could see a nearly naked man on a porch during the shoot. So, the model who posed for this scene needed to be bold and able to pose in front of a crowd.

The new way to become a portrait photographer is to order the Flip video camera. You use it to make quick and easy videos of students on a campus near you. Photography isn't all about stills anymore. The Entitlement Generation (those born after 1980) want to be video taped, not just photographed. They grew up with camera on their cell phones. For older people, the Polaroid One Step camera was a prized household item that was kept under lock and key by dad. Kids normally have camera on their key chains. By registering as an Official Photographer on CampusMen.com, you will have the ability to upload videos of students you recruit in your city. Students allow you to tape them and then they can use the video to qualify to become Campus Men.

And if you are the kind of student who is bold like the model in this story, you can use your "boldness" to get Accepted as a Campus Man and beat other guys competing.
