Thanks Tom. She was actually somewhat cold and troubled. She appeared to be the owner of an expensive clothing store in upscale Birmingham, so when I asked her if she wanted to model I assumed she was much older than she really was. Turned out, she was only 19. She had grown up in Toledo, Ohio and had taken up with a young Russian entrepreneur who didn't seem to treat her very well. I think he was angry when he found out she had modeled for me, although this was as sexy and revealing as it got. She didn't like the way she looked in the photos, although not for the reasons you mention. She thought her hair looked bad, and she had various other complaints. Shortly after this, she ended up pregnant. Several of her boyfriend's businesses, including the clothing store, failed. They married and moved back to Toledo. Hope she's doing better now.
