College girls go nude before camera for eternal beauty
They are young, they are energetic, and now for an eternal memory,
they go nude -- in the studio.
November 18, 2004
A young girl, nude, turns her back to the camera in a picture taken in the
Xi'an photo studio.
They are college girls in Xi'an, an ancient city in landlocked Shaanxi
Province, which served as the capital city of some 13 dynasties in the Chinese
history, including the worldwide glamorous Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907).
Now over 1,000 years later, Xi'an girls have really leaped forward a giant step
-- revealing their bodies, compared with their Tang Dynasty sisters'
off-the-shoulder-top vogue. They take snapshots, nude.
Along the bustling Chang'an South Street, south outskirts of the city, there
are 5 universities. Some girl students rush to take nude pictures at an
avant-garde photo studio by the side of their campus.
A set of nude photos costs 1,000 to 5,800 yuan (about US$120-600). This cost is
obviously a considerable amount in the ancient city whose residents on average
earn 800 yuan (about US$100) per month. Whereas the high price never drives the
girls, mainly living on parents -- away.
"I think it's worth the money. I can leave my most beautiful time eternally on
the negative and photos," a 20-year-old girl with a nearby university said, on
condition of anonymity,
However, most parents of those girls know nothing about it, while footing the
bills unconsciously. Do parents support their daughters to keep eternal their
prime beauty in nude snapshots?
The girl said: "As an adult, I know what I am doing and of course have the
freedom to do this, if I like."
"As for the money, I didn't ask a penny from my parents to cover the photo
expense," the girl said, proudly. "I've got a part-time job as a tutor and
saved the money for this."
She is not the only one. Many girls, most from the five universities in the
vicinity of the studio, visit the photo studio to make their artistic photo
album, all in nudity.
"We take orders for nude photos almost everyday and sometimes customers have to
book a photo session a week beforehand," said the studio owner, a young man in
his twenties.
"Nowadays many college students have completely different attitude towards the
photographic art of human body, which had, for a long time, been considered a
taboo in China. They now appreciate nudity and consider it an art. And when
taking photos for nude girls I feel a kind of sanctitude as I am witnessing
glamour of human body," the owner said.
He said all cameramen working in the studio are young men. "They are highly
professional and can always very well cooperate with their customers during the
photo session."
