I'm hijacking but GD while your taking her under your wing...Maybe we could teach someone how to be reference friendly and not manipulating clients?!?!?....Thank goodness I have other means of screening then relying on my so called "sisters of the hobby"

Ms. Sassy I believe you know the answer to your question...Find what your comfortable in and go for 100%%%. You will love the outcome...


In all reality..does it matter? No I don't live in Arkansas anymore and will only be back to visit my regulars from time to time....
If Sydney's hijacking then I'm just hijacking to get under her again!!!

How's that watergun Sydney!?!?!? you sexy animal!
Thank you Sydney looks like the truth is out now, and by more than 1 verified provider! So GD you see you may actually thank those of us who have tried to help ONE DAY.
Lets get back on topic, I am tired of closing threads. This is the warning and ALL off topic posts after this will receive points. This thread belongs to mssassy, we can start other threads if need be for additional topics. Just quote the person and put it into another thread.

thanks ali cat. I love your suggestion. i have been doing alot of thinking . getting in touch with my true provider is hard since i have always tried to fit in to a so called mode but anyway based on the suggestions I have gotten so far I am aiming toward more of the outdoor shots with a bit of a twist to it. thanks sydney.

thanks random for getting this back on topic.

thanks ahead of time everyone for all of your suggestions and input I greatly appreciate it.
Sassy you still keep saying you have lost your bbw status and how your ass turns head on a daily basis. Take some photos that prove it. Dont crop anything, hug a pillow, or take a pic from an angle that doesn't show the whole picture.

Take some photos that actually depict you, because in the end that is what a guy is paying to see. Again, just take some full length head to toe pictures wearing whatever you want, hell, a potato sack if you prefer, that shows a potential client what to expect. Front side and rear shots that actually depict what I am about to encounter often times are best shots.

If you are looking for ways to fool a client into thinking you are thinner that what you actually are then by all means do so. But you asked for suggestions and mine are to take some pictures that show you for who you are, and doesnt leave the rest of the story to the imagination.

Sassy,

I don't blame you, I blame the photographer. Girls with more curves can be sexy if the person that is taking the pictures knows what they are doing. I am not talking about hiding less desirable parts of your body or as others have suggested, tricking people into thinking you are a different woman than you are. I am talking about featuring your assets.

One of the queens of the hobby, MLG, does exactly this. She does not fret over her curves, she utilizes them and features the sexiest parts of her body:

If you can afford a professional shoot, go for it. If you can't put out the cash (it can be expensive) find a man or woman that connects with you and believes you are sexy because their eye should help the camera capture your beauty and energy. Perhaps, if you can avoid the drama that can sometimes ensue when a hobbyist becomes your photographer, you should find a gent that is an ATF and go have fun taking hundreds of photos, just to find the four or five that work best--this is the beauty of digital. What many people don't realize is that even super models have material they shoot that ends up on the cutting room floor. Since digital does not require expensive processing, takes lots of pictures. don't be afraid to delete the ones that don't work for you.

As to scenes and settings, you should pick something that accentuates who you are. You want these photos to not just show tits and ass, but rather let the creative, sexy and sassy woman that you and the people you cherish know you posess. You want to jump out at the person looking through your gallery. Usually the best ideas, as some others suggested earlier, come from things you already like to do.

It looks like there was some hijacking and backroom needling going on in this thread, but much of what Ginger and others suggested to you was honest and helpful if you read it again and focus on the wisdom rather than taking offense, especially when a third party like Ali comes in to tell you to get upset--see that for what it is: drama stirring.

I applaud your courageousness and asking for input. You did get some wonderful suggestions. Perhaps let them cool off a bit and go back and read those comments with cooler eyes and try a few of them out with a camera and a friend. I think you will be very happy down the road if you put yourself in poses and scenes that YOU find sexy, or one of your admirers find sexy. When you try to be something you aren't in a picture, it tends to show. The first key is to be relaxed, and to trust the person behind the camera to let your real beauty shine through.

Good Luck!
Wetwork Daddy, I couldn't have said it better myself. Bravo!

Hey BB, I ran out of popcorn and beer on the other thread. You have any?? Now back to our regular scheduled program of As The World Turns On Eccie!!

While it would be easy for me to take on the title of "resident smartass" (and yes, there are others in the running for that title), I'll take the Miss Congeniality approach with my question / comment.

I applaud you for working and losing the weight. For anyone who has done it, it's hard to do. I can also appreciate your desire to present that image in the best photographic light.

Much of the advice given has been about deciding "who you are" and repositioning yourself in the mind of the client. As long as you continue the same advertising approach and marketing yourself in the same manner, the best and most expensive photographer in the world, using the most creative approach isn't going to change the image.

If you're truely interested in changing your image, I'd suggest you start with your advertising. It's the same old stuff and ties you an image of one who is desparate for money and is willing to stoop to the lowest common denominator of the hobby.

You might consider reading Positioning: The Battle for Your Mind by Ries and Trout. It's been around since 1972, but is standard for business establishing a market position. And this is a business isn't it? The premise is a company must create a "position" in the prospect or client's mind. Perhaps your first consideration should be the position you occupy in a client's mind rather than from what angle the photographer should capture your boobs and your butt.

Just my two cents. You asked for advice and you got it. And no, I'm not being a smart ass.
Yay, BB!!!! I'm drunk on Beale Street and I still embrace your wisdom!!

Glad to see I was not the only that thought this! Sassy just be you and your true natural beauty will bypass all the rest! Everyone has things about them we wish we could change, its about working with what you got and working the HELL out of it! You have great potential it is up to you to add the shining perks to it!
