  1. Maybe you were in …
    Maybe you were in the part of Morocco that did NOT value large, round women. All I’m saying is that the rest of the world isn’t so fixated on skinny broads… regular folks need to be used in lighting and photography tutorials as well, for that touch of realism.

    What kind of lighting would one need for obese Americans though? Probably one with mounting rodes made from donuts :)

  2. I’m sure you’re …
    I’m sure you’re right, though I didn’t notice it the 2 times I was in Morocco but the issue of lighting more rotund models is not adequately addressed. Obesity in America has reached 30% so that is a market waiting to be discovered. An arabic and slavic language video on lighting, perhaps?

  3. Whose eye? I bet …
    Whose eye? I bet some men in Morocco – and in the rest of the World outside of the US and Western Europe – would beg to differ :)

  4. Cpo2u, I’m afraid …
    Cpo2u, I’m afraid regular guys and oversized women are just not terribly photogenic…. skinny broads are! Nothing personal just a fact of what’s considered pleasing to the eye.

  5. what does that have …
    what does that have to do with lighting???

  6. Everywhere I go …
    Everywhere I go every demo I see, it’s always a skinny broad being used as a “model”. Sheeze, I guess plump women or regular guys don’t deserve to have professional pictures taken!
