- 1981 May, William Childress, “Conversation”, in Friends‎^[1], volume 38, number 5, page 29:
  Still, as we explored her "album"—an ancient cardboard box with hundreds of photos tossed in helter-skelter—it was hard not to get interested. My wife immediately did, pouring over yellowing pictures, asking countless questions. And even I, yawning boredly to avoid suspicion, sneaked an occasional peek. I just hoped they wouldn't find that diaper shot.
- 1996 May 31, Roberta Smith, “'Baby Pictures'”, in The New York Times‎^[2], volume 145, number 50444, page C22:
  Little more than a scaled-up version of the traditional diaper shot (complete with strikingly adult demeanor) that has long been a staple of the advertising world, Mr. Winokur's photograph still gives one pause: he's a cute little guy, but I wouldn't give him power of attorney.

  If your baby's stool consistency doesn't change with solids, I'll refund you the price of this book (be warned that you will have to prove it with a panel of clearly documented before and after diaper shots).

  I never understood. I could post my junk or women could post their stuff. Nothing happens. But if we post diaper shots. Shut it down.

  She also posts baby T in a diaper a lot. Covering his face does nothing for his privacy when a diaper shot is all a lot of creeps need.

  THIS is exactly why they filmed this! Her pervert flies ask for this shit and then they go and post it! If anyone asked me to post a child "wearing purple" I would NEVER show them in purple again in fear something is being done with it. THIS is them flat out asking for naked or diaper shots and here they are doing it with no regard at all!!!! 😡
