The Things You Don't See
This is Ceri. Ceri is one of the most enthusiastic and helpful models I've had the pleasure photographing. As you can see from this shot she also has a terrific smile and she has a very sexy/cheeky grin.
Anyway, one of the things that all studio photographers know, and which some husbands/boyfriends don't appreciate is that glamour photography isn't some giant wankfest. You are so concerned with making sure the lighting is correct and that there aren't any stray hairs trying to make a getaway from the head of the model that you often don't actually see the photograph you're creating until after you've pressed the shutter.
This was the first in a series of three, my instructions to Ceri were, "Can you put your thumbs in the top of your bikini bottoms please." Let's just say I won't be publishing numbers two and three in public.

Now that's what I call a welcome back! You're getting very adventurous!
I reckon nudes (if you're going that far!) are better in B&W...perhaps you can experiment.
I know I shouldn't divert attention from the lovely Ceri but I've just seen the Liga results and the RM goals...game on!
I will see what I can do for you!
Welcome back. I arrived home last night just in time to see RM's winning goal - I think it's safe to say La Liga is a two horse race this season.
"glamour photography isn't some giant wankfest"... maybe not for the photographers! :-)
(I'll get my coat!)
P.S. I have to say I like the lighting and background. In my not fantastically informed opinion, these are two elements that separate the amateurs from the professionals.
You're right Shy (swiftly moving on from your first post). I find getting the light right very difficult and I take my hat off to the pros who know exactly how to get it right straightaway.
