I can't claim credit for the model selection, but I have always pretty much photographed whoever asked. Raf was the fellow I did the art nudes of last week. One of the models asked me to post all of her selections from the shoot: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157641183648885/ And PK and Stewart were helpers who I got a few photos of as well, they asked that their photos not be in the main set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157641139431104/ There was another male extra, but he didn't pose with the women in any of my photos. > > All very well executed and as Bruce said, everyone bad fun.

Particularly in some of the scenes where we had people calling suggestions and cheering, or egging on, the models. > > Great stuff! > > Cheers, > frank > > On 17 February, 2014 3:50:53 PM EST, Larry Colen <l...@red4est.com> wrote: > >A friend thought that would be fun to set up a pinup photo shoot at > >her house, with people to do hair, makeup etc. and asked me to be one > >of > >the photographers.
