U Is For Underwear
The Alphabet of Photoblogging is an A-Z 26 day long series about what to look for when doing nightlife photography and what to do to get your photo taken. For the rest of the alphabet and more info click here.
If you go to enough parties you WILL see people in their underwear. There will be frighteningly skinny dudes in American Apparel boys briefs, there will be go-go dancers in bikinis and there will be a lot of people who just took their clothes of for no reason. You NEED to take pictures of this. People want to see half naked people, even ugly people. Trust me, as horrifying as naked fat men are, people will click on the thumbnail to see him almost as large as life. While some people might shy away from actual nudity, everyone wants to see people in their underwear. Ipso facto if you get into your underwear people will take pictures. This is important to note for two reasons: 1. If you want to be seen on the internet, getting half naked is a good bet. 2. If you don’t want your friends and coworkers to see pictures of your drunk ass dancing pantless on a bar stool, you should probably keep your clothes on. Because some photobloggers are not as nice as I am and they won’t take down your picture no matter how much coke you offer them.
PS. Why haven’t I been to a liquor and lingerie party since college? Let’s bring that back into my life.
