The Real World

Megan is another of my "real world" models, the sister-in-law of Lynz, a woman I shot last year who was a "real world" friend of mine. Both proved to be wonderful subjects during their first "real" nude shoots, and I'd be pleased and honored to work with them again. Actually, looks like I may have a chance to work with Lynz again in May. :)

Just a reminder, here's Lynz and her hubby John from our shoot last year... I don't know that I've ever met a couple that was more made for each other than they are.

Catlynn

Here's Catlynn, a model I recently had the pleasure of shooting with. She's really a lot of fun to work with, and full of surprises. It was sort of an impromptu "get acquainted" shoot, but sometimes those are the most productive, maybe because there's no time to build up expectations, and instead just go with the spontaneous flow. Sometimes I wonder if I planned things out more if the results would be better or worse. For now, improvising on the spot seems to be working, especially when I'm working with someone like Catlynn who brings enthusiasm and energy as well as beauty to the shoot. Hardly seems fair to call it working, actually. :)

Good Friday...

Just thought I'd observe the holiday with this image of Alkemie striking a familiar pose, and with Engel and Alex reinterpreting a familiar scene.

Behind in my work...

Just a quick one today to apologize for not being on here more recently. Did a lot of shooting this weekend with some great models, so those should be finding there way on here soon-ish. Have a lot of stuff to organize for pending shoots, including trips to Chicago and NYC.

OMP decided to showcase Italian Kitten's backside on her portfolio... can't say I blame them. :)

Alkemie

Just a couple of nice shots from the enchanting Alkemie. Planning to work with her again this weekend, so watch for more soon.

Flexibility

A couple showcase images from my recent-ish shoot with Italian Kitten. Despite being on crutches with some damage to her knee, plus the icy weather, she made it to the shoot, and made it look easy. Looking forward to going again soon when her knee is back to 100%. A really fun model with serious skills... look for more soon!

Snowbound

Been somewhat burning the candle at both ends lately, with a lot of day job demands exacerbated by being shorthanded due to the flu that's going around. Been doing a lot of shooting and scheduling, too, and when time permits, editing. So last night, I'd been planning to hunker down and do some editing, but the police actually came to our office building and told everyone they needed to go home before last night's blizzard hit. So I did... and had something of a "snow day" that we so rarely get as adults. But rather than be productive, evidently my batteries needed charging, as I slept very late this morning, got up and shoveled the driveway, then fell asleep again for a few hours. Hibernation instinct running strong in me, I guess. Then, tonight, we lose an hour to daylight savings, which is truly the first sign of spring, even though we'll be under a foot of snow when it happens. But we'll have daylight lasting until almost 8pm for months now, which should help cheer everyone up a bit. Still, much to do... so much, it's hard to know where to start. So, why not do a blog about how much there is to do, rather than actually doing something?

Here's the lovely Phoeona from before the embargo...

Busy busy

Been quite busy with lots of fun shoots lately, and seem to be setting up more each day... when will I ever find time to edit? I'm looking into having myself cloned.

For now, a few shots of the stellar Zinn Star from last year...

Undone

Here are a couple more shots of Iris from our recent Collingwood shoot. She'd had her hair "up" for the Dirty Show party the night before, as seen in the top photo. A little ways into the shoot, she took her hair down without having any way to style it, apart from just running her fingers thru it. I think it lends a bit of a realistic touch to the bottom shot. Iris herself mentioned a couple times how important she thought hair was to a final image, and I have to agree with her. Need to start playing with that more for future shoots.
Top shot: Showcase on OMP. Thanks also to Boyd for being a gracious host, as always.

Quick update...

Very fun weekend... haven't had a chance to edit any of the images just yet, but there's some very nice stuff in there. :)

Here are a couple more recent shots, Byby26 (top) and Bri (with flames) that I like quite a bit... both Showcased on OMP. Woot!

Hot Hot Heat

Bri takes hotness to a whole new level here... don't try this at home, she's a trained fire artist. But even without the fire act, she's still teh hotness.
