First shoot with Alyssa who looks like this getting out of the car. She was simply stunning and willing to brave a very cold creek. Only sad note, I was too old for her MOTHER.:bow

    This is terrible!

    As a reminder of this type of exploitative photography I plan to print and hang these on my wall!

    OK Sam. I'll mark you down as undecided. :D

    Actually, since the concept is to mimic SI and they hear that PC stuff all the time, I'll take is a compliment. Thank you.

    Wow...

    Someone has really did some homework since the last time I looked at his work.

    Really like the lighting. Love the scenes/backgrounds. And yes, yout\r use of DOF is rather pleasing and well selected here.

    Now...

    I know you are going to hate this...

    But...

    Next time, you really need to help her adjust her top so it fits her breasts correctly. It may take several tries.

    Also...

    Make-up to cover that tramp stamp wouldn't hurt my feeling either. Hey. I'm old tat's are for Biker's and Marine's and the people that give Marine's rides to places they get the job done. She doesn't look like any of the three.

    Thanks Bryce. Been a while.

    As for scenes, my concept is to combine SI with Field and Stream. Within 3 days of posting the concept, 15 models contacted me, including 8 of my regulars.

    We totally agree about tatoos generally but the world has changed for us old folk. Tough to find a real model w no tats or, worse, piercings.

    As I mentioned, she is 23 and her mom was on the shoot. Mom bought her the bikinis. I defer to them as to fit.

    Laughing.gif as to DOF, I am stupid and stubborn but as capable of learning as your average Great Dane.

    Thanks again.

    .

    You're the professional. Really, look at the fit. If mom doesn't want you tinkering around close to her "bits" then ask mom to do it. The way the tops are fitted in some of the poses does no justice whatsoever, and in some cases detracts, from those umm assets. Or as one of my friends says, "Orbs of Delight".:D

    Understood but, honestly, I'M the one who won't tinker with the bits.

    If I see it next time, I'll hope mom is there to do so. Laughing.gif

    Thanks again.

    Not surprising in the least. Bet you could charge for this "concept".

    Nice work. Nice rack.

    An "accurate" reproduction of a scene and a good photograph are often two different things.
