Shoot Info: Single off camera flash into 44” umbrella. Toned in Photoshop

Please see her full story at: www.adupri.com

So I had an opportunity to work with Tailor late last year at a large photo seminar. Great attitude and just a nice person. The sad part is our schedules were so crazy we never got an opportunity to shoot. So for the time being here are a few shots from another site …. one day we will find the time to shoot…

So this portion of the site is slowly growing and changing as I go…. I have had several requests to talk more about how to become a photographer in the Glamour market. As I have said in the past I am by far not a "pro" but more of an advanced amatuar. "Pro" is a person who makes money shooting…. I am clearly not that..just ask my bank account.. as in most cases I hope to make enough to pay for equipment let alone buy a yaght and drink umbrella drinks on the islands.

That said this week we will begin the trek to attempt to cover the basics…..

So rule number one for this site is there are going to be photos of beautiful nude girls here… sorry its a glamour photo site… its what both we as photographers do and what the great models we work with do… I will not get into a huge debate on the topic of nudity but my take is that the site is not password protected so all images displayed to the public will be covered in some way as to not make them "porn".. Ah porn another debate not worth having right now…. maybe later thou… We can let the models answer that when we start posting the interveiws with the girls we work with – I think most will be amazed as to the answers.

So to sum it up… the photo of Lux Kassidy above is an example of the type of photos you will see here. And please no comments that she is not topless, or that little diamonds on her nipples does not make it kid safe etc. I am a huge beliver that you can see more nudity than that on regular TV or in a copy of most magazines these days, and more power to you if you have any pay channels….

(soapbox over)

On to photogrpahy… The plan is to have a photo edit explanation and some tips each week. But more than likely there will be much more than that. This week we are going to start with tips for the Nikon D100 – Yes its 3 generations old and yes I still use it but remember the budget minded aspect we are going for here… So there will be an entire new section about D100 Tips and Tricks on a seperate page of this site by later this week…And yes I want a D300…

Actually seeing I am running out of time to type this evening… let me do this… I will post the Nikon D100 Page tonight and then write up the Lux shot tomorrow to get it out to everyone. I get alot of questions about the how behind the why I do edit photos the way i do and I will happily talk about that here if anyone wants to hear the reasons…

Only the sexiest girls…. but there is a story to every girl we shoot.. Most are just the girl off the street that you might never really give a second look at in normal day to day life… But the equation of Camera, Makeup, and setting tend to change things to a sultry mix of naughty, sexy and nice all wrapped up into one set of great images.

I started www.girlsofblackdiamond.com to finally get my work out for people to see and get these very beautiful girls the exposure they deserve. Do you like what you see? Do you want to see more… Site opens in a few months… in the mean time feel free to enjoy the free images…

This was a great trip – Shooting along side who we consider the best in the industry – Mark Daughn of Mystique Magazine. Special thanks goes out to Mark and the entire crew there for making this a tremendous trip.
