Think it's sad that because of a few bad apples, some resorts or campgrounds have totally banned personal cameras. I respected the rules and didn't bring my camera but there were friends I made that I would have liked to have gotten photos with. Have both a good 35mm and a VERY!! cheap digital. My avatar is an example of the quality of photos it takes. Got it free for signing up for an internet during a promotion. I'd be more afraid of the digital camera cell phone. These things can take a pic and email it else where very quickly.

I think it's ok to take pictures as long as you have the approval of whoever is in the picture. For example, when I have a family I'd want some pictures of us during our nude activities and would want someone to take them for us. BUT I wouldn't want any Tom, Dick, or Harry who happens to be walking by to take pictures of my family and I. It all has to do with permission, in my eyes.

For those campgrounds or resorts that say no cameras, do you think it would be acceptable to write to them and ask if I could bring my camera, hand it over to some long time member or staff member for him or her to take photos of myself with nature and willing friends and allow the staff to hold onto the camera until I'm ready to leave?

Dave, I think if you let them know that you're an AANR or TNS member that you'd like to visit, ask about cameras and if they say "no cameras," then you can ask if you can bring yours, give it to the office staff and ask the office staff to snap a photo or two.

all depends on the resort/campground. some are very open about it. others dont want to hear it. if you ask, the worst thing they can tell you is no.

Cheri has the right idea sailordave, write and let them know first, and let the owner/manager take a pic of you.

I have seen people on nude beaches who were not nude, but using their camera. That is wrong, period! I have seen people who were nude, using their camera to film the people they are with. That's not my business. If it's ok with the people they are with who am I to say otherwise?

I never brought my camera to nude beaches or clothing optional facilities. Not a good way to make friends.

No Bernie it is not. With all the posting now on the internet, people are just plain scared.

Some athletic clubs are banning cell phones in locker-rooms and exercise floors. I'm not positive, but I think they're being banned at a lot of nudist resorts, too.
Of course, the reason is that so many new phones have digital cams in them, and are easily used for secretly taking photos.

Many Caribbean resorts with nude facilities, such as those run by SuperClubs, have "no camera" rules, but the Security staff are generally flexible if the photos are obviously either of scenary, or posed shots (such as thos at our Fashion Show in Braco, provided no one complains.
We were once asked by a couple we knew to take their photo (with their camera). I took one against greenery, and - after her husband had gone to get drinks - she asked me to take a close up of her husband's body painting artistry to surprise him later. As I was about to take the shot, the security guard asked me not to as there were people in the background in the pool - about 20 feet away - who would have been in the shot (who I'd not really noticed) so I complied.
After the guard left, the people in the pool asked what the problem was, so I explained - they were so unconcerned with being in the background of the shot, that they were indignant I'd been stopped! Of course, the guard should err on the side of caution, and wouldn't want to wait until the issue became risky.
Cheers!

David,
Regarding cameras, caution is the best policy in clothes free areas.

Chic you are right about that, and especially the camera phones now.

Should I bring a camera to a nude beach?
