Not to get into too much of a discussion in this thread but I'm confused about how taking clearly sexualized photos of a minor is not illegal. I can't look at half of these pictures of this girl without thinking "She's 17. How is this legal?"
Because those aren't nudes or sexually explicit content. Also some type of professional privilege, I'm sure.
The professional privilege aspect makes some sense, I guess. Seems like a real fine line though because what constitutes a professional photographer in that sense? As for the photos not being sexually explicit, they're pretty damn close. Hard to say a photo of a topless woman covering her breasts with her arm isn't sexual.
I know, I know, I didn't even want to bring it up in here because it kills the mood/tone. But I can't help but think it. Anyway, if anyone has an answer for me then please feel free to share. Until then, Camilla Morrone.
Braves2125 I'm sure modeling agencies get consent from their legal guardian before they get to the photo session phase. Also I'm pretty sure there are different laws and liberties if you shoot in South America & Europe when doing a model shoot with a teenager.
I'll do another photo dump later today, but I don't bog down the thread with photos for mobile users of TMB because it's not functioning properly at the moment. I hope we'll be on page 2 later today.
On a scale of 1-infinity, how creepy is your friend? I feel 99.99999% of male photographers in this field are pedophile level creepers.
Nah, he is not at all a creep. Asian hipster kid from Minnesota who worked his ass off to get where he's at.
It's real weird that if you have a very expensive camera, it's cool for a grown man to take pictures of a seventeen year old with her tits showing. I don't think that shit would fly if he had a disposable though.
There's "artistic liberties" given to photographers. There's legal photos of the girl that played in the blue lagoon fully nude when she was super young because it was deemed art. She was also fully nude in a movie when she was around 10. Keira knightly is also top less in a movie before she was 18. I would never in a billion years sign off on something like that if I had a daughter and I don't believe it should be legal but it is If it's considered art. Lots of weirdos out there but in all of the world for the most part except America someone like Camila would be considered a woman not a minor
Even if taking the photos are legal in another country that allows it, I'm pretty sure that doesn't make them legally permissible in the USA unless the model is 18. As for the art angle, that's a real fine line, too. By that logic, some twisted fuck could legally allow a 'professional photographer' to take 'artistic photos' of their kid under the age of 18 and if those qualifications mentioned are actually legally permissible then they'd be doing nothing wrong in a legal sense, only a moral sense which is an argument of its own. As for people viewing Camilla Morrone as anything but an adult woman, very unlikely. She looks like she's in her low twenties to me. And she's just a lovely woman.
