Well, I do have to defend the subject here…I usually hope that my clients trust me enough to know that I know what looks good. So sometimes people may have to get into odd feeling poses, maybe not exactly this….but were I working with this exact moment, I’d have shot it MUCH differently. Close up on the faces, the little girls sweet hand, and the mom’s pretty smile. Not booty-doir. My exact words when opening up this site were, “Oh yuck.”
Aside from the awkward subject matter, this one isn’t that bad. I like big butts and I can not lie. You other brothers can’t deny, when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in your face, you get sprung.
When I first saw the bikini and booty, I thought for sure that the other party would be a male. Preferably an adult, which still wouldn’t make this *right*, but add some kind of funky ‘I’m the girl and I’ on top’ sense to it. Seeing that it’s her daughter of what, 5 or so? just creeps me right out.
His port is actually very good – especially compared to a lot of what I see on a daily basis. I’m thinking that this one was a reach for them to put up here.
Not the first time they’ve grabbed a single image from an otherwise decent portfolio and said this guy / gal is a fauxtog…
Eh…they aren’t bad but some are questionable =) I kinda just wondered, there was an image…did he photoshop out the nipple to make it not controversial? lol…Cuz she most definantly should have one
A very unusual composition however I think it could have worked if they had shifted the camera’s perspective and position. The way the subjects are posed in this suggests the wrong concept. Clearly the mother loves her daughter and there are plenty of others ways you could use to illustrate this.

I don’t want to even think about what the mother nor the photographer were thinking. That is not only disturbing – but VERY wrong!

I love that a boudoir photog commented “what the fuck” LOL.

If they cropped above the waist then it might be salvageable but otherwise ummmmmmmm
Dani
wtttffffffffffffffffffffff

If you cropped out the whole body of the mom, then the picture isn’t nearly as bad.
Odd choice of subject material.
M.W.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. WHY when the photog realized that he didn’t quite get the right tone of the capture did he not crop it?

dat ass!!11!1!!$!!##!1!1!!#$!!!

That’s a delicious looking big black booty. Shame they had to ruin the photo by putting the little kid in there. LOL. 😉

Aw crap. You beat me to it. Baby got back.

As a non-photographer, the first thing I thought was “for the love of all that is big, black and bootilicious, CROP that damn photo!”
A close up of their faces would have been lovely. Not this abomination.

Good Lord. Crop the airborne booty and leave the faces.

well thats just creepy. :\

It’s a questionable photo, true. But this guy’s portfolio is not even half as bad as a lot of other ports I’ve seen. http://www.modelmayhem.com/575250

Wurd up. I guess “Steve Black” only photos blacks?

Wow, you are so creative. Those “ethnics” are just so different.

Inappropriateness aside…this is one of the better focused images featured on this site.

This shot demonstrates how the camera can lie. We immediately misinterpret it only because of the framing.
Learn from it!
I actually like this image, but I’d never have the balls to release it in this form.
