I am lame. I feel terrible that I haven’t posted in so long. I could also make a bunch of excuses, but I’ll skip it. I miss modeling… a lot. It has definitely been a couple of months and my confidence level has taken a toll. Maybe that sounds shallow? But I think some people really have to work at being confident and comfortable with who they are and like any other skill, if you don’t keep practicing and working at it, you start to lose it.
Time to catch up on blogging! It has been a really long time since Rob and I have done a shoot together and I hope we can get our shit together soon and change that. Going back in time to the strippers when Mac asked me to gather a group of girls for a side project he is working on my first thought was “ugggghhh, not again!” I loved doing the group shoot with Rob and seeing the girls transform was amazing and an experience I would never trade, but finding people and getting them to commit is a giant pain in the ass. I thought this time I would just ask a whole lot of people and expect about half the people that said yes to actually do it. It ended up being the exact same process at last time. So many yeses, so many back out, scramble, beg, plead and find a couple of scared shitless girls last minute to come do the shoot so we have enough people to make it worthwhile. But once everyone was finally together and my heart rate could come back down, it was AWESOME! I love seeing people who start out saying “I’m keeping my pants on and am just going to keep my back to the camera” get totally nude by the end of the shoot! It was so much fun! Mac had a blast, all 7 girls were totally nude by the end of the shoot and they all wanted to do it again! Makes me feel like I am liberating the world one naked girl at a time!!
Maybe Mclain will follow my lead and talk about his side project and maybe post some pictures as well! ;)
About the Project
The Raw Files is a project created by Mclain (Mac) of 'Swift Images' & Rob of 'Rob Caleffi Photography' and is currently in it's fourth year.
The premiss of the project involves each photographer working with a model over the course of a year (or as long as we can keep the model!) and all parties sharing their experiences here. Rob and Mclain also share thoughts on photography, behind the scenes, product reviews, and tips and tricks as they relate to photography.
We encourage you to feel free to leave comments on our posts and share your thoughts with us, and please, curl up with your laptop and your beverage of choice one lazy afternoon and read the project from the beginning.
