Sierra, Through the Years

Did I tell you that one of the first things that attracted me to Sierra was her back?  One of the first photos I saw of her was shot looking at her from the rear.  The muscles in her back show off her fitness modelling looks.

Sierra, Through the Years

We next shot in December in Nevada.  We just have a great time during our shoots coming up with things that normally would not work together, like this red stilettos and gloves on a red rock in the desert.  We were just experimenting with different wardrobe that Sierra had brought along.   

Sierra, Through the Years

The spot we generally shoot at along the river, has a great little cavern with a naturally flowing fresh water spring coming out of the roof and walls.  We were shooting along the river bank and were surprised by a fisherman who was fly fishing along the river.  He was as surprised as we were.

Once we were done in town, we headed out to the Gros Ventre River.  Did I mention that Sierra is a fitness/bikini model?  

Sierra, Through the Years

One elderly gentleman approached Sierra and asked if she would mind taking a photo with him.  She agreed and we got this one.  His wife was shopping and he was walking his dog.  I got his information and mailed him a copy of this photo.  I think this was a highlight of his trip to Jackson Hole.

Sierra, Through the Years

Two months later we shot again.  This time we started with some touristy type shots in and around Jackson's Town Square.  We had a great time shooting around the various statues amongst the tourists.  Of course Sierra drew a crowd.

She asked me what them we would be shooting and I told her we would come up with something cowboy like that would include some fine art photos.  This is one of our first nudes.

The next thing you notice is her long, dark hair.  And of course you eventually get around to her breasts :-).  Both this and the photo with her jean vest were taken in Jackson Hole in front of the Tetons during our first session together.  There have been many since.  I had seen a photo of Sierra on Model Mayhem and noticed that she was in Salt Lake City.  I contacted her and asked if she might want to shoot.  She agreed.  

Sierra, Through the Years

The first thing you notice about her when you meet her is her eyes.  They are striking and range from a wheat color to green depending on the lighting.    

Sierra

As promised, this is Part 1 of my series of photographs with the beautiful Sierra.  I have so many great photos with her that I decided to break it up into two parts so that I didn't bore you.  This first series is a couple of years old and includes some of the first photographs with her.  So sit back and enjoy.  

Photography Page

You've found my photography page (JCP Photography, not to be confused with JCPenny Photography :-) ).  I shoot and post my fine art photographs here along with some behind the scenes photos.  If you're looking for more explicit stuff, I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place.  I've been shooting models for a little over 3 years now, and before that I shot landscapes and wildlife.  

I try to blend the beauty of the models I shoot with the beauty (or bleakness) of their surr...

The Cement Plant - Not

This was getting toward the end of the day and the sun was setting behind Floofie and St. Merrique.  I really like how the sun highlights their hair and the blue color of the sky.  I may make this one of the wallpapers for you all.  What do you think?

I just want to say thanks to you all for following me on here.  I hope you're liking the content.  As you all can tell, I'm an art nude photographer, and if you're looking for more explicit content, you've come to the wro...

The Cement Plant

Sorry I got a little out of order there :-) This is a pedestal for what was probably a motor on the first level of the grizzly.

The Cement Plant - Not

We moved from the cement plant to a desert location to finish out the day.  This photo shows what can be done in the golden light and is one of my favorites from the shoot.

The Cement Plant

Another shot of Floofie and St. Merrique at the bottom of the grizzly.  They pose so well together and it's a joy to shoot with them both.  I've shot them together and separately several times now.  They always bring their A-game to the shoot.  

The Cement Plant

Here Floofie and St. Merrique are posing together at the bottom of the three stage grizzly.  That's a giant screen to sort the ore as its dumped from the mine for all of you that aren't familiar with mining equipment.  This photo is for sale on my 500 px site.

The Cement Plant

This is just a great place to d silhouettes.  The kiln leads your eye through the model to the outside world.

The Cement Plant

I was practicing with my speedlight for most of the indoor shots in the kiln.

This photo better illustrates what I saw when we were searching for the location in the prior two photos.  This is part of the lighting test as we moved to this spot.  The rock that Inna would eventually pose against is behind the tree.  You can see the shadows that I would eventually use to paint her body like a canvas, behind and to the left of her.  You can see some of the shadows that are being cast by the tree on the rock.  The tree itself is of course hidden behind...

Okay so I had a request for additional photos or the unedited version of this photo to include more of the tree.  This is the best I can do with the original.  It's the uncropped version of the original photo.   

From Russia With Love

Last one of this beautiful woman for now.  I like the way the tree branches create shadows on Inna.  I also like how she's framed by the branches.

From Russia With Love

The color version of my previous photo.  I like this version as well as the black and white image.  You can really see the contrast between Inna's skin tone and the red rock.

From Russia With Love

Some color bonus photos of Inna for my $5 plus patrons.

From Russia With Love

It was tough getting any photos without Inna's "Cold Face" on, because of the temps.  She's still beautiful even with the cold face.

From Russia With Love

Again most of this series is done in black and white.  I particularly like the contrast between Inna's skin and the darkness of the red rock and shadows.  It was funny when she went to sit on the rock as in this pose, she yelped, "this rock is cold".  :-))  The hazards of being a nude model.  One of the drawbacks of cold rocks from the photographer's perspective is that when the model stands up, her butt is red. :-))

From Russia With Love

Although this photo is dark, I like the silhouette.  I could and did make it brighter but came back to the darker version, because I like the highlights along her neck line and breasts.

From Russia With Love

Besides the obvious reason, I really like this picture for the sun rays that are streaming down around Inna's body.  It doesn't show up as well in the color version.

From Russia With Love

The parking lot at this particular location is behind Inna, but we really didn't have to contend with a lot of tourists during the shoot.  Too cold to go out into the desert I guess.  Again most of this series is done in black and white.  Tell me what you think.

From Russia With Love

Another lighting test shot.  I thought they were good enough to use here.  Again it was the coldest day of the year in Nevada during this shoot. We didn't think it was that bad though since the sun was out and keeping us warm.  

From Russia With Love

This was taken as a lighting test.  Yes she's wearing one of my shirts.  I didn't know if she brought a sweater or jacket so I brought one of my flannel shirts for her to wear between sessions.  She almost took it home with her :-))
