Some of the models that are featured in this series have either never appeared or may be under represented on this blog for several reasons, including the number of shoots that I had with them. Others, are like this portrait of the legendary Maria Cedar have appeared on this blog many times.

In the last Chapter of the Book Club I said, “One publisher confided in me how much he hated the cost of book design. I think this might be a topic for a future book club chapter.” This is that chapter…

Recently I received a phone call from the client for whom I did the firetruck factory shoots. He is considering restarting, not just the calendar project but creating a website as well. He even mentioned that Dusty was interested in posing for “one more shoot” so that had me excited at the prospect.

My client is looking for female models from ages 21 to 32 for paid shoots to appear in sexy photographs that will be used for an on-line lifestyle magazine.

But that’s not what your intimate portraiture subjects want. They want a portrait of themselves that’s different from the last one you made and especially one that captures their individuality or essence. The same goes for your lighting.

As I write this on Monday, I’m preparing for a luncheon meeting with a client that I haven;t worked with in a long time. You’ve seen some of the images that I shot for him here and in other places around this blog. Some of my favorite images from these assignments, can’t be shown on this blog because… But what all that has in common with today’s post is the client has a new project that involves on-location shooting of models, which brings me to today’s post.
