partner angry at requests for art nude photography

Do what that Nikon Guy does and post videos of your pervy activities and call them educational videos, so when your wife sees that you are actually educating the world on how to badly light some sexy time she *might* be fooled into thinking that it is, as you didn't tell her all along, "Work".

If you don't like this kind of comment, then perhaps the message is to not seek atonement for your guilty pleasures by protesting to a photography forum that you can't for the life of you understand why your wife thinks your a douche even when you're busted for 'communicating' with 'models' on the internet behind her back, you then carry on and communicate your inner relationship juicy bits with strangers on a camera gear forum.

Bet she loves that, or haven't you told her about that bit?
