I desperately just want to hold the model, just until she feels secure.
You know what happens next.
Moving. Beautiful. Lovable.

I agree about the "raw", but not about the "frightening". Maybe a sense of uncertainty, expectation?
Stunning work in any case. Youβre great.

I think you're right: There was definitely a sense of uncertainty with this model...my brother and I had no idea what she wanted from the shoot, and we still don't...we gave her a disc of the images and haven't heard from her since...but i really love these two images and am pleased at the response. Great? Me? No...not yet, but I hope to keep getting better...and getting more toycameras?

i love the edge to this one.. almost scary how it mimics rape, or snuff porn. She captures innocence perfectly, the image screams victum, at least to me. but i love that, so few photographers can capture sincere vulnerability.

In my opinion, you already are...your images [and words] speak so eloquently of love and desire and experience...even if we didn't speak so often, i think i would still know much about you...and one cannot ask more from any artist than for them to tell their story.

the best of luck, you should never be afraid, if its a part of you it has a beautiful side, and certainly worth exploring. dwell into the subjects we are all to scared to find in ourselves, the strength it takes to do what you do is so powerful, i feel it and hope to be there someday.

You're the second person to use the word "raw" about this dyptich...i didn't see it at all for a while, but now its coming to me...

I love the way they feel as if they were taken from a security camera. Of a situation that the person watching is unable help in.

the lab we send our film to usually prints out toycamera stuff full image, but for some reason the Isolly-Mat's 4 x 4 cm negatives must have confounded them...but i really like the way these look, so i used them the way they came...i'm thinking of asking them to always print them this way...
to me they look a bit like old-style Polaroid prints...don't you think?

Well the shyness is quite real here! Sarah was a first time model who'd never done anythng much less a fetish/erotic shoot before...I tried to be as gentle as possible, but I think she was still a little nevous about it all...but she wound up feeling very good about the results...

Very intresting. How do you get models willing to do photos like you tend to take? What are some tips you could give a person?

Beautiful! I love the black lines in this shot...they really draw your eye to the subject. Additionally, the softness of the model and her pose really work well to add a sense of helplessness in the midst of those dark, strong lines. Great work!

its very odd how the black lines happened...usually the lab i take my film to prints them full out, but i suppose they had someone new on the line and they tried to print the 4 x 4 cm images down a bit...the result was the black borders...i liked them so much i just scanned them into the computer and made them part of the image...i wonder if i can get them to print them this way all the time!
