Rambo with Boobs -- Remember Xena??
Well that's not exactly the word she used to describe the concept but you get the idea.
Here's the well armed Zena posing with some of her favorite collection. These are real weapons and for those who worry about it, she is handling all weapons in the safe position. Girl knows her stuff.

One word Montana.
Sam
NO ONE should be able to make HER toys illegal.
Oh, you were talking about the weapons. Color me embarrassed. But, those shouldn't be illegal either.
Nice Job on these Steve! Could have done without number 8.
Bryce, #8 is not to be taken seriously. Hence the caption.
Sam, you are correct. She lives out of our little nannyhood here.
Gaby, Correct flagged strobes on both sides to blow the hell out of the white seamless.

You need to drive on up for a weekend and I'll get as many of my beautiful crew together as I can for ya. I really am lucky to have so many repeat shoots with such terrific women.

I actually had to borrow a light to blast that background (my suicidal Interfit replacement is on the way) but that kind of comment from you means my winter season was a success. I have the rest of April to play indoors before I return to my natural habitat outside for the season.
This weekend is a World Tour shoot with my creative partner and muse, Cyndi (here's a headshot in case anybody forgot her)
and Sunday with my redheaded beauty Carly
GOD I LOVE THIS HOBBY.

Leaving aside for a moment that fact that it's a gorgeous woman wearing a tight vinyl outfit and armed to the teeth... the series is excellent from a photographic point of view. You shot a subject that's almost all black, against a pure white background, yet you got plenty of detail and contrast in the subject. Not only that, but it's a highly reflective outfit, yet your lighting was very even and there are no obvious hotspots, just some sheen here and there that serve to add definition to her shape.
I particularly like #4; it's a great pose, but you can see all of the details of both the outfit and the weapon she's holding.
#5 is a close second. Well, except for that cheesy ripoff of a Klingon dak'tag knife she's holding; I've seen those things, and they're junk. Either a real prop dak'tag or a better quality real knife would have improved the shot for those who like weapons. For those who are just looking at the girl, as we say in Baltimore, "It don't get no better'n'at, hon!"
This is the first time this year I got the white seamless correct. Some of my other shoots - not so much (or at all).

I've been having a problem with white seamless all winter so this time I decided to just blast away.
Key light for this set is a strobe through my 60" Photek Softlighter
Fill light is my AB 800 bounced in a 48" umbrella
Seamless is lit by one strobe and one 580EX at full power on either side. To avoid spill I put two 5 in 1 reflectors as gobos between Xena and the lights.
I'd note that this was not in my normal indoor space. Xena arranged to borrow a studio from some friends that gave me the room to move her off the BKG a good 8 feet which I can't do in my regular spot. That gave me room for the gobos and moving her to where there was no spill.
