Rachel's True Colors

WTF,
The problem is that most photographers have to take all the jobs they can to get by, and the real money is in shooting high volume work for schools. My brother is in the process of retiring as a photographer after 30 years and always declined (well, almost always) shooting nudes etc. because if word gets out his rice bowl gets broken.

If the lady is still trying to change backgrounds I just got "Remask 2" from Topaz Labs, it's a plug in for photoshop that speeds up the process of isolating a subject from a complex background pretty well. Something she might want to investigate.

This is a shot Lindsy Lacy emailed to me for play, she was stradling a massage table in front of a solid red wall (not the best color to extract against).

This probably isn't the sort of background this lady wants but it shows how well the software handles the fly away hair etc.

Regards,

Maybe I'm jaded....but my first thought was, "So what". It is not illegal to photo escorts, is it? Damn wives give their husbands some racy photo's all the time, at least early in their marriage! LOL

Give atl credit, had someone listened to him this thing would not have gotten blown out of wacky-wack.

Bottom line...with the nature of this business ain't nobody sueing nobody for notta.


I got towed a while back and came back and got into it with the tow truck driver. The warning signs were placed so you would have to be a fucing eagle to read them. Long and short , I was pissed enough to threathen to pay some poor bastard to sit in that lot and warn off potential suckers. Did I? Fuc Nooooooooooo. In fact I almost got somebodys assed whipped. Truth be known it was a better than decent chance that it was going to be mine!

Wow, I don't think her statement was very professional at all.

I'm glad I never chose to work with her.
