Police Halt Nude Photo Shoot


The threat of arrests was enough to stop photographer Harvey Drouillard's annual photo shoot using nude models in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Drouillard has been photographing public nudes since 1994. Drouillard professed before the shoot that the police knew him and he anticipated no problems. The reasons are unclear why police decided to crack down at this time. Harvey is a self-professed nudist who has been busted previously for nude photography, but a judge declined to find him guilty because there was no evidence that his actions were criminal in any way.

UPDATE: Harvey was successful in getting his shoot completed despite the initial setback.
“No one breaks tradition!,” shouted an exhilarated Harvey afterward. “Not me! I feel vindicated!”
