Updates and a cool photo!

So if your wondering, Yes I did change the theme on the site. It was really starting to annoy me that when I create a post, it never looks the way it did on the site as when I was creating it. I would spend an hour creating a beautifully laid out post with images to break up the text and then I publish it, and all that layout work would be gone. The problem as I discovered was the theme I was using was stripping all of that out. I chose to simply change my theme rather than trying to muck around with the code for the other theme.

All of the same stuff is still here though. I added a navigation area on the right just under the donate button so If your looking for the portfolio page or something else on the site… it’s probably over there.

Now onto more interesting things…

Today I got to edit a few more photos from the shoot on Sunday and came across the image below. I love how the colors just pop. It’s really the shad of red that blows my mind away. However now that I think about it, we should have done the shot with out the bikini bottom. I’ll just have to do another shoot to get that shot….

Upcoming shoot

Yesterday I wrote that I was working on a shoot for the weekend. Lat night I received an email from a model who was interested in working with me. We talked on the phone about the shoot and it seems like she’s going to be a lot of fun to work with. I’m always a little cautious when working with a new model. I got the impression that she’s done some nude modeling before but it’s been mostly for art classes. I know she’ll be relieved to know that she won’t have to hold the same pose for 5 minutes at a time. I’m a little nervous about working with a model I’ve never worked with before mainly because I never know what to expect.

I’ve been quite surprised by the models I’ve worked with through this experiment. Rose, as an example, is a woman I’ve known for years but never worked with her as a model until a few weeks ago. Even though I knew her, I still wasn’t sure what I was going to get and she turned out to be quite an amazing model. I’m glad I asked her to pose for me. And I’m sure we’ll be working together soon. I’ve found so many great models and wonderful women through this experiment that I find myself anxious to meet this new model this weekend.

The location I’ve selected is a place I’ve shot at before. The last time I was there it was an afternoon shoot. This time we’ll be doing a morning shoot. It’s a place that has a lot of nature but also man-made elements as well. The location also features an old road which I look forward to using. I also want to explore where that road goes. It branches off in a direction that looks like it just goes off into the bamboo but it might lead to something interesting. So I’m thinking that we’ll start off at the top of the mountain, move to the road and then move into the wooded area. Being nude in the woods will be a great way to end the shoot.

I guess we’ll see what happens…

Today’s Last minute shoot

Well it all came out good in the end. I called Sara up and she was available so we scheduled for a sunset shoot which worked out so nicely. I really appreciate her being able to do such a great job on last minute notice.

The shoot itself was great we had more fun this time I think than the last shoot. I had some very specific ideas but shooting with Sara is great because she just gets into these poses that are just gorgeous and I cant help but take more photos of her. A few times I stopped to think about where to put her for the next pose and then I’d look at her and she was already in another great pose. So sometimes the ideas got put on hold in favor of capturing a great moment.

I gotta get to sleep now but I’ll be posting what I learned form this shoot in a few days. For the time being enjoy these shots from today…
