Great sole shots! Thanks for sharing all of them here. 😀
Yes it is. Don't get me wrong I'm not judging you or offering an opinion on whether or not you're crossing some moral boundary. I couldn't care less what you do with your time. I'm simply saying that when you film somebody for the purpose of selling their likeness for profit without a signed release you would probably lose in a court of law if somebody found out what you were doing and filed suit. That's why most clip makers get signed releases from their fetish models.Is this your legal opinion?

Latest clip, my store is:
http://clips4sale.com/40361
This girl had raven hair, which I love, and the sweetest and most innocent little face! Her poor tender tootsies -- long, slender, smooth and highly arched -- were evidently aching from a day's walking in high-heeled strappy mules and she was resting them in the park for a while, and the redness of the tender bottoms of her bare feet was apparent! (I got there moments after she put her feet up -- nothing else was doing and I didn't want to miss a second!)
When I first sat down to shoot was was taking selfies and that's where the clip starts. I was a little too eager to get every second and a tourist noticed I was shooting and went over and told her, standing between me and the girl. (I edited that part out.) I got ready to deal with the situation but I heard her laugh and saw her wave her hands around and the guy just looked at me and then walked off. She laughed again and took out her earbuds. (There was a Shakespeare performance in the park and I think she wanted to tune it out, and frankly I can't blame her.) So since her feet were VERY MUCH still on display, and she had basically disregarded the guy, I thought I'd go back to shooting.
So I did ... for a half hour!
Way too much material to put on a clip, and believe me it was hard to trim it down, but I think I have chosen the most adorable moments. She obviously liked the music she was listening to as her feet were very happy and dancing around. She often looked at the camera with her quirky little smile and even seemed to be sure to keep them pointed at me. I love her sweet little face and big innocent eyes. I think she is a New Yorker, as she had the vibe of someone who had just got out of work, and was killing time to go off and meet someone. Her poor tender soles got less and less pink as she rested them -- I was almost tempted to get an ice cube from somewhere and ask her if she'd like me to run it along her soft pink soles to cool them off. Her beautiful shapely smooth soles were so frisky! There was lots of wriggling around, dancing, and even a little rubbing.
I actually ran out of internal space and had to switch over to the memory card and she sat there looking at me quizzically as I urgently switched over, but then I raised the camera lens again and she went back to dancing her bare feet all around. She's all SORTS of adorable and so are her bare soles!
*That's generally correct except a fetish model is there to make money with the knowledge that the model's likeness will be sold. These are people in public so recording is usually considered ok.
*The profit angle and fap videos is more on point, but this is also a much smaller niche "narrowcasting" market than anything a television network with sponsors would offer to the larger public & I imagine that could make a good argument in court.
*About court. The OP can repeatedly demonstrate that the women knew they were being recorded since he can document that many women in his videos year after year had seen him with his camera and would peer at it while he recorded. The large majority of them did not confront him, work a financial deal with him, or even put their feet down when they discovered what he was doing, so there is some sense of implied consent to his activity.
*But the upskirt case in Washington - where the recorder intended to sell his clips made in public - was found not guilty of any wrongdoing since he only filmed women who were accidently displaying their "upskrt" in public; any eyes could see the same thing the recorder saw. And these aren't even upskirt shots; they are just feet on full no-shame display, propped up on tables and chairs that are going to be used for sitting or eating by the rest of the public. So there has already been precedent for a recorder shooting a fetish video in public for profit (and the court found in his favor).
Oh so you're a lawyer, offering legal advice on the internet to strangers who could sue you if it turns out they rely on it to their detriment?
So I'm guessing you're either not a lawyer, or you are a bad one. 😉
If you think about it, nearly everybody on here who captures pics or videos of unsuspecting women is "guilty" of illegal acts..
It wasn't my legal advice, It was my legal opinion. You're not my client and I'm not offering you advice. I was responding to a question posed by someone else as to whether or not what you do (selling the video's that you take for profit without signed consent) is technically legal.
Not really, it only crosses the legal line (again in my opinion) if their recognizable likeness is used for profit without their consent.
Your failure to provide the women you film with any information about what you are doing with the videos is proof enough that you don't really believe what you do would pass legal muster if it were examined in a court of law. Some of them may think it's harmless enough because they assume that you're just some loser who plans to jerk off in your parent's basement later. But I'd wager that they probably wouldn't be as indulgent if they knew you were selling those videos on the internet.Care to back that up?
As that opinion states, "context" and "content" are everything. But feel free to hire your own lawyer and sue me for all damages you've sustained resulting from my "legal advice."Actually you've just undermined your own argument. Read the ABA rules, opinion 10-457. II B. specifically.
Wow, a bunch of bs artists w way too much free time. As if the barely 18 year old girl with no long term vision or guidance taking a photo shoot for poorly tho You are a bunch of self righteous, pathetic hypocrites, the same handful of you doing this time and again. Why do you frequent this board so often ?
