Rock is right. (I trust Rock with my deepest secrets). I do little else than take photoshoots.

Other than that (and preparing for the upcoming zombie plague), my life is quite normal.

My wife doesn't like Epica. If I had a date, I'd see the show with my date then immediately drop her off. Nothing more (unless I can talk her into a shoot).

NSD's life is much more exciting. I told Rock that I live vicariously through him and NSD.

I work as a Software Engineer. I call myself a Musician, but I have yet to make $100 a day/night as a Musician and with the cost of living here, I can't quit my day job just yet.

Let me let you in on a secret. It's a lot easier than people realize to find nude models. You simply meet women. You find ones that are insecure about their figures and want some positive encouragement. Photographs = proof. It's really that simple.

You tell them that you can make them beautiful and you can prove it.

Most of my models are plain Janes. Yet, they look marvelous in my pictures. It's all the angles, bringing out the strengths, covering up the flaws, lighting, make-up, the Gimp, etc. A woman only needs to be decent looking to be made attractive in pictures. The rest is the photographer/lighting guy/make-up artist, etc.

1. Ah....well, then maybe I need to change my program from "shadow a business" to "shadow a hobby". :)

2. Well, you do have to have the photographer's skills re angles, lighting, etc. That's not chopped liver, whether you call it a hobby or not. :)

"Want to see my etchings" works only if you can etch. :)

3. Er, what's "The Gimp"?
