Weird requests - 'fess up

[candidrachel]

I was reading NicoleScraps model mayhem thread and it reminded me of one time when I was chatting to a guy at camera club who like a lot of people here has a small home studio setup where he takes portraits of clients from time to time. I asked him if he ever gets any wierd boudoir requests (not that I was propositioning him lol!) and he said yes he does from time to time and pulled out his mobile phone and showed me a message from a girl requesting him to take photos of her and her ex-boyfriend "doing it" so that he would have something to remember her by

We both fell about laughing!!

Another time a mum rang up and asked if he takes photos and her was like "Er yeah of course " and when the mum and teenage daughter turned up the daughter had a face like thunder and obviously didn't want to be there but the mum was super keen and suddenly out of nowhere the mum screamed at her daughter "Oh for goodness sake just get your t*ts out and put a smile on your face!" meanwhile the photographer was so shocked and embarrassed he offered everyone cups of tea to calm down lol.

Over to you. Do you have any cringe-worthy moments you care to share

I was recently propositioned to be a subject in her boudoir photos. "can't you just put it on auto fire"

I was once propositioned to do some topless shots which were not planned because... we were at a wedding (no, not the bride, and yes, in private).

I once was suggested we make our park shoot a nude shoot. It was late afternoon (to get good light), so people were still around. We did. I love living in Holland, no one seemed to think it was too odd.

My life is fun.

Nothing so entertaining, but I did get this one:

You took such great pictures of my dog, we love them. My daughter is getting married in September, can you do her wedding?

Well they do say Brides can get pretty bitchy.

I was doing photography at a big house in brisbane for a home warming party. Walking around with my big DSLR having a good time when suddenly im approached by a very very hot young lady.

The young lady was very intoxicated and said so you are a photographer eh ? I replied yes I am. Oh well if you want to do some nude shots of me somewhere in one of the bedrooms thats ok because I want to be a model later....

I was quite suprised and also abit suspicious, taking all things in this situation into consideration (I am really really careful with possible underage drunken teens) I politely declined. I did end up taking a clothed shot of her together with my partner wich I may upload sometime.
