Just in time for Valentine’s Day (see our promotion to the right)…Jane Photo Intimates. We are working on a dedicated blog for these since we no longer have any grown-ups without kids on our new site (though we may), so for now, here are just a few. Ms S was a joy and a delight to work with. I draw her, too, and it was fascinating to change my approach for these shots. We had toooo many clothing changes, lol.
My faves, though, are the last ones shot through glass and fabric. I have been wanting to do these shots for just years now, a la my hero, Elizabeth Opalenik. Of course, I hadn’t even heard of Elizabeth when I started fooling around with the idea back in rural Japan, when I photographed women (with their permission) half seen in steamy onsen (public Japanese baths). When I was introduced to Elizabeth in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, I knew that her images captured a sensuousness and moodiness I was longing towards. I was not entirely certain I could get the same effect just in my little studio, but I did myself proud. These images of Ms S are mysterious and evocative and yet still so sexy.
I have many more images I love, but they will be saved for the upcoming Intimates blog.
