I have a shoot tonight with Vanessa...I have been working with her off and on since she was 14....Shes now 17....We are shooting in this lil apartment guest house type thing...She wants to do something sexy but i find it a challenge shooting in such a small area....
I did a lingerie shoot with Jordan at the same place and the shoot only went as good as it did due to Jordans pure talent and posing abilities...Vanessa lacks the confidence that Jordan has.
When shooting with Jordan i was very pressed for poses...Most of those Jordan came up with...Some were my idea and those turned out good...But i found it to be very challenging and with anything glamour,lingerie or sexy the shot has to make some kind of sense or it just looks like crap....
Vanessa works 2 jobs 7 days a week and nights is the only time she has to shoot...She works tomorrow morning so we cant shoot too late....When shes not working shes visiting a now ex-boyfriend whos in a coma and has been for 2 years....So tonight she has time to shoot its just what i can come up with and my model stuff generally looks pretty damn good but this is more of a challenge shooting in a box....I'm grabbing props like a sword an such...Oh wait, the kitchen sink need to grab that too....
I dont have a lot of poses for this kind of shooting...I'm use to shooting outside the great outdoors...Vanessa did her last shoot with me by a river,those turned out really nice i was really pleased with her shes starting to get some confidence down...This is a girl who at a shoot with Jordan she started to cry...Not right in front of the photographer i pulled her aside and she said she didnt want to shoot and that shes not pretty..I asked her who told her she was'nt pretty she said guys she knew...I told her to tell them to F*** off and not talk to her if they think that...Her self esteem i have worked very hard on and its starting to show in her images...
So....30 minutes till we shoot and i have no idea as to what i'm gonna do...No game plan...I like to have some room to shoot in...Not in a tight area like this...I guess its good practice maybe...
