Many Models

Ok, just two models but in less than a week.

First Briella Jaden (aka Ashley Brooke) contacted me to say that she was making a swing through Ohio before moving to Florida. I love photographing her. Get out a camera and she just oozes sexuality. I had scheduled to shoot her earlier but she got caught in traffic and we didn't have time.

Then Amaya Solace let me know that she was passing through again. I just shot her a few weeks ago but she is a lovely model, also.

So I managed to fit them both in. One last Friday and one today.

Briella isn't hard to schedule but you have to allow a little extra time in case she's late. She has been late to four out of four shoots. The first time she underestimated the drive time. The second time she thought that we scheduled it for 2:30 instead of 2:00. The third time was when she got caught in traffic and was 2 1/2 hours late for a three hour shoot. This time her GPS broke and they couldn't find the place. I had to go fetch them.

But it was worth it. She's not only sexy, she's also flexible. At one point I put cuffs on her wrists and elbows and padlocked them together. No problem. I asked a few times about the strain from having her elbows so close. Not only was she fine, she told me about managing a reverse prayer.

I spent some time shooting in the garage. The next door neighbors weren't home and I had some cloth I could have taped over the window if I had needed it. Partway into the shoot the sun came out and shone through a southern window onto Briella. This was perfect lighting. When I looked over those pictures later I just stopped and smiled for a couple of minutes it came out so perfectly.

One successful shoot down. But what to do next? Especially since both women have very thin, athletic builds.

Things were a little more complicated with Amaya. The date and time changed a couple of times. She is in demand and had a little trouble working everyone in. She is also using a rental car and asked for an advance to help with that. And she asked if I would chip in on a hotel room if she got a suite. She finally got into town and gave me final directions at 3 am. And she made a typo in her phone number (this wasn't a problem since I still had the correct number from the last time she was here).

The suite saved me a two hour round trip and gave me some different backdrops so it was worth it.

Amaya isn't as flexible as Briella but she's still a great model to work with. I'm doing glamor bondage and I seldom gag the model - partly because I want them to look as lovely as possible and partly because I like talking with them.

So part-way through the shoot I realized that I had a really pretty, naked woman tied to a chair and we were talking about food-blogging.

I had some more luck with the sun. The room had a southern window and the sun came out so I asked Amaya to move over into the natural light. She's actually a little shy and didn't want to stand directly in front of the window even though no one could have seen into the room with the sun shining directly on the window (assuming someone was looking from the vacant lot the window overlooked). Anyway, she stood off to the side a bit. This worked quite well. There were some heavy shadows so I got some pictures of the light and shadows playing across her body.

She is also a little shy about nudity. She kept her legs together and, whenever possible, had a leg obscuring her crotch. When I had her sit for the chair tie she crossed her legs so I tied them that way. I think that it made her more comfortable. Personally I have always been turned off by the "spread your legs for your closeup" school of photography so I was fine with this.

So now I have over 800 new pictures of a couple of really sexy models.
