Photography
Hey I got a question. Well first off I started photography about a year ago, and while I was in school I used to use a manual camera with film I rolled and what not. But now that school is out I dont have a dark room to use, so I have been using my digital camera and going to walmart to do my prints.
I wanted to join a gallery in a nearby town, and they had an opening in the nudist section. Now my question is, is there anyway I can print nude pictures somewhere where it wont be a problem? online or can I do it at walmart if they dont have a problem?
thanks

A lot of private photographers are willing to develop your photos for you. Another advantage to this would be an ease of ordering blow ups and different size prints. I don't know how comfortable I would be trying to go to wal-mart and asking the fifteen year old kid in the photo dept. to make a blown up glossy of me in my birthday suit. A private photographer will respect your privacy and help ensure your artistic freedom.

umm places like cvs and drugstores dont really have a prblem with it.. most of the time they wont say anything to you b/c its your business.. so anywhere prob takes them

I think that it might depend on your local Walmart. My sister-in-law is a stripper, and she gets her prints from Wal-Mart without trouble. However, my local Walmart (different city) won't do it. Walgreens blacked out the naked bits when she took them there.
My advice is to call around. Check with small local photographers (check your yellow pages) and see if they'll do prints for you. Check with your local big chain stores as well.

Wal-Mart will probably give you a problem. There are online services that may be able to accomodate you, but I've never used one myself, so I can't give you a recommendation.
Here's a link to a review of a few different services, though:

An alternative might be to pick up a photo-printer. You can get some of them for well under $100, and the quality is pretty good - particularly if you use photo-quality paper.
Good luck!

My memory tells me that Walmart does have a problem with pictures depicting nudes although I couldn't find thier policies online. Beyond that, I imagine some of your models would feel uncomfortable with such a method of printing.
If you are serious about making digital prints investing in a home printer and professional photo editing software that is up to the task might be worth it.
I'd ask the gallery, or the other photographers at the gallery where they go for prints. Many stores that are not large chains would probably be more agreeable to handling nude prints and building a relationship with a professional printer would probably help you a great deal.
