Two Beauties

One of the fortunate benefits of having a beautiful and willing wife to model for me is that it often encourages other beauties to pose for me as well, especially when my lady agrees to pose with them. These images were taken after I had completed a shoot with Bridgett for one of my projects.

Since we had the studio for the day and Wanda was available, I got the girls to wear some of the custom chain outfits I've purchased for my various projects and we shot some poses featuring the ladies together. Wanda is wearing a set of chains called the Diamond Ensemble, while Bridgett is wearing the Raven Ensemble. I think they look quite good together - the chains as well as the women.

The background is a rather unusual piece that I purchased from a studio owner in another town. He called it his "bird poop" background. The background contains white and dark gray swathes in a random streak pattern, hence the name.  The white areas, however, are thin enough to be translucent and gelled strobes placed behind the background produce a result quite different from a front lit background.

The ability to change the color of the backdrop by swapping out the gels allows for significant versatility but, of course, the background is always secondary to the beauty of the models themselves.

This wasn't the first time that Bridgett and Wanda have posed together for me, so they were quite comfortable posing together, and I think it shows in these images. These two redheads work well together and both are familiar with my style of photography, so little direction was needed from me. I was able to just set the theme of the shoot and let them go.

I'm sure (or at least I certainly hope) that I'll be able to shoot with both of these lovely women together again, but next time I want to do an exterior shoot with a different theme of camo, guns and knives. That should be quite exciting and fun.
