Le Pink Lingerie Campaign Update

Just an update on the Le Pink Lingerie Campaign.  I see it is up on Le Pink’s website.  Here are 3 screen shots.  There are a few more up in a Autumn/Winter 2010 Preview section.  I just got the catalog in the mail, so I might try my hand at photographing the catalog itself this week for posting.

More to come!

Thanks!

Bathing in B&W

Recently I had a chance to do a boudoir photography shoot where we had access to a bathtub.  A tub with bubbles gives a photographer a chance to have some fun.

This shot was originally planned to be a traditional color photograph, but every once in a while I will try alternative treatments on an image to see where it can go.  In this case I found B&W to be  very effective.   Both me and the Monique liked the B&W treatment over the color version.

Even though I always have the final photograph in mind when I click the shutter, I find having an open mind during processing opens the door to some interesting alternatives.

Monique said she liked how much more sexy the B&W version looked.

Music and Movie Moment: Mulholland Drive -- Rebekah del Rio, "Llorando"

Rebekah del Rio – Llorando (“Crying” cover, Mulholland Drive)

Mulholland Drive (David Lynch, 2001). This track is a haunting, a capella, Spanish language cover by Rebekah del Rio of the Roy Orbison song “Crying” (Orbison, Melson 1961). Some screencaps are from here, some are from here, and some are from TK on the lj. Some I took myself from the sneaksters who have managed to put a bit of this up on the youtube. Thanks to all sources.

Yo estaba bien

por un tiempo

volviendo a sonreír

I was all right

for a while

I could smile for awhile

Luego anoche te vi;

tu mano me tocó

y el saludo de tu voz

But I saw you last night,

you held my hand so tight

as you stopped to say hello

Y hablé muy bien

y tú sin saber

que he estado

Llorando por tu amor,

llorando por tu amor

Oh, you wished me well

You couldn’t tell

that I’ve been

Crying over you,

crying over you

Luego de tu adiós

sentí todo mi dolor

Sola y

llorando, llorando, llorando.

You said, “So long,”

left me standing all alone

Alone and

crying, crying, crying.

No es fácil de entender

que al verte otra vez

yo esté llorando.

It’s hard to understand

but the touch of your hand

Can start me crying.

Yo que pensé

que te olvidé

pero es verdad,

es la verdad

que te quiero aun más

mucho más que ayer

Dime tú que puedo hacer.

I thought that I

was over you,

but it’s true,

oh, so true

I love you even more

than I did before.

But darling, what can I do?

¿No me quieres ya?

Y siempre estaré

Llorando por tu amor

llorando por tu amor

For you don’t love me,

and I’ll always be

Crying over you

crying over you

Tu amor se llevó

todo mi corazón

Y quedo llorando, llorando, llorando

Llorando por tu amor

Yes, now you’re gone,

and from this moment on

I’ll be crying, crying, crying,

Crying over you

Purchase Mulholland Drive, a StudioCanal film, from amazon online or in person at some big, dreadful electronics discount store where they make their employees dress all alike and discourage self-expression while simultaneously crushing their professional ambitions and private dreams, or even someplace mind-numbingly similar but with a wider range of products to assuage your human misery at the altar of merciless soul-raping capitalism, Walmart or Target; whatever, I don’t care. I am just encouraging you to do this consumer bullshit so I don’t get sued. If it were up to me, David Lynch movies would be showing at most theaters everywhere always, so it’s tough for me to recommend virtually profitless small screen shenanigans. And by tough I mean I am going to go chew light bulbs now.

This movie will come up again, these are a really small handful of caps compared to the rest. I’ve just been blue and listening to this song a lot lately.

Wendy Peffercorn is all Grown Up!

Marley Shelton played Wendy Peffercorn in The Sandlot.

Apparently she’s come a long, long way since dropping Squints’ jaw in 1993. Shelton was #98 on Stuff Magazine’s “102 Sexiest Women in the World,” and now appears as Dr. Dakota Black in Planet Terror. She also appeared in Sin City.

The Sandlot is a 1993 American comedy-drama sports film about young baseball players. The film was directed by David Mickey Evans and was released with the title The Sandlot Kids in Australia and the United Kingdom.

Here are some more Wendy Peffercorn Pics There are even a couple of nudes.

Photo at weekend (2010, Week 4)

Today I’d like to blog the photograph by Andreea Retinschi, a freelance photographer based in Bucharest, Romania. On her site, she claims that she believes that a photograph should hold a character, and not just a model.

The following image may be seen in Andreea Retinschi’s gallery (WildRainOfIceAndFire) on deviantART. Photographer wrote in comments that she was thinking about “Birth of Venus” by Botticelli when taking this photograph. She also mentioned that it was an abandoned factory with no ceilings and that it was probably around 12°C outside (~53°F).

Pippa McNamee

As you can see Pippa and I had some fun on this shoot, this was our first shoot and we had a good time with it too.. after I found her place and we met we got chatting and then realised after an hour of being there that we should probably get on with doing a shoot!. So we did some lingerie shots and then some fancy dress for the hell of it, loved it when she was sat on the couch playing with high heels and panties, its not often you see things like that. and you see that scarf in the bottom right hand of the picture… yes thats mine and still there! Man im freezing!
