Naked wedding photos a hit in once conservative China
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060313/od_afp/afplifestylechinamarriagesexoffbeat_060313075402

BEIJING (AFP) - Forget the Mao suits of a generation ago. Actually, forget about any clothes at all. Naked wedding photos are the hot new trend among young couples in once deeply conservative China.

Even in Anhui, a largely rural province in the east, many newly-weds are having their pictures taken in the nude, to the fury of their parents' generation, the Xin'an Evening News said.

"Some photo studios are just going too far. They allow young women to have their photos taken in bikinis or with nothing on at all," said an irate woman from the Anhui capital of Hefei. "I hope the authorities will do something."

The Xi'an Evening News did a random check of five photo studios, and found that all of them would be willing to take nude photos of soon-to-be-married couples, should they so wish.

6. Interesting.
Hard to find pictures, but several credible sources confirm that having nude pictures done pre-wedding is a growing trend for couples in China.
