Not as daft as it may sound.
If you hired somone to give you a blowjob /shag then that is illegal as it is prostitution. So if you had a camera in your hand would the law class it any different?
If a model release etc was signed then it is clear that this is a paid shoot and as such you would remain inside the law.
However if it is for personnel use then there is a grey area here, I doubt the police would be that interested but by simply placing a camera in your hand and filming it I do think you might have left yourself open to some legal issues.
This is not a dig at the boy/girl models or the guys who film them but quite simply how i precive legal problems could occur on such shoots.
Please dont turn this thread into a slanging match.
It would be nice to hear some genuine constructive coments on this subject fom models both male and female and also the guys who shoot it as I have not seen a thread on this before.
Thanks
