A History of Fine Art Nude Photographers
Articles
Community Zoe is actively pursuing written work about photographers who have shaped the world of fine art nude photography.

The goal is to give a well rounded depiction of the beginnings of fine art nude photography.

We are asking for written submissions to be short essays on photographers who were taken notice of before the year 1970 who actively shot fine art nudes. If you need help finding an appropriate photographer to write an essay about please let us know. We will be happy to make suggestions.

One purpose is to develop a history behind this many times censored art to bring it to a level of acceptance among those who wish to keep it hidden behind closed doors.

Another purpose would be to educate photographers today about what a fine art nude actually is.

Our thought is that it is much more than a naked body standing infront of a lens.

If you would like to submit an article for review to Community Zoe please email:

We actively accept articles written in all languages! This is an international website. If anyone would like to help translate any of these articles for individuals who do not speak English please let us know... we would love your help.

Enjoy our articles! We hope they bring inspiration to you and help further your photography and/or your mind.
