Instead of winding down for year end, my thoughts are more provoked as to where i am going next, Not really on vacation, Not really in My job, Not really in my Relationship.
Although all of those should be assessed at some point soon.
Where am i going with all this modeling and photography stuff?
How can i challenge myself?
So far i have a date set for a session with an artist whom paints and sketches
Emily Wong.
I have also set a date to visit Chip Willis in Ohio in January.
This trip brings up some pending issues in my existing style of modeling and self ports.
I do a lot of nude work, about 80% of my work is nude, I guess I'm just milking this cow till the utters fall off.
I have been wanting to do less cute work and more erotic work recently, But there lies the dilemma, I still have some issues and boundaries to work around, I don't think i am able to bring that side of me out with a photographer unless i feel like the content is justified and there is complete trust in that Photographer, Trust in the sense that they are being responsible, Trust that they can direct and capture that side of me.
It's not as easy as it looks, I have control issues. I need to be able to feel as if it's OK to feel uninhibited, and not judged. and Yes Sexy too.
I want to feel vulnerable, Being Sexy and in control is easy, and all i really know.
Being Sexy and uninhibited is not something i am familiar with.
It's like all the moons have to be aligned just right, and on top of that someone to capture it when it's apparent.
I may have only had a handful of those moments infront of the camera, mostly alone, mostly doing self ports.
A CHALLENGE IS ABOUT

I need some inspiration too.
I have to stop being nice
I know you like to work with new people, but has there ever been a photographer that you've worked with before, that gives you the confidence and values that you're looking for to do some of the more erotic photography? Someone you felt comfortable with and knew you could explain your boundaries to and they would respect your limits while still letting the images push, but not break the line? If not, your new challenge may be to challenge yourself as the photographer in your self portraits.....which have always been some of my favorite photos of you. You have a good eye and a good sense of what works and what doesn't....maybe you should stretch yourself a little and see what happens. You are the final judge of what is good of you ( and good for you ) anyway. The worst that could happen is that you don't quite see what you're looking for and hit delete on the images.....and I say that knowing that you don't always do your self portraits in digital format.
This is an outstanding image.
We should plan something then. :)
Hi Tanya,
I thought I felt my ears burning.
Thanks for sending along your flickr. So many lovely shots (and what cute doggies you have).
I'm so excited to hear your ideas!
