I was visiting a town in another part of the country for some days in 14’, not long after I started shooting nudes. So I made a casting asking if anyone felt like shooting some art nudes.
Marlene, in the pictures here, worked as an exotic dancer and asked if we could make a trade: some promotional photos for her, and she would model for whatever I wanted to do.
She got what she wanted, and so did I.
I don’t think she cared for the art nudes, and I didn’t care for the promo photos, so it was a fair trade.
I shot the promo photos in my hotel room using a large white reflective umbrella, and the outdoor images were all in natural light.
Fun fact:
She only brought stiletto shoes and the boots from the promo pictures, and she had a bit of a hard time hiking in the stilettos.
Morale:
Always remind a model that she needs to bring sensible footwear in case you need to walk on unpaved roads.
