(deep sigh) Oh Eli, everything you put about doing the same old same old resonates with me. You forgot Greying everything but one thing, Cupcakes on a plate in a doll or lolita costume, Corset lolita wig looking up with puppy eyes, etc.
And people saying images are great when they are clearly horrible...I never understood that. When I joined this place I was ASTONISHED what is praised. I especially love when it's a totally tasteless horrid quality nude and people act like they have a degree in analytical photography saying it's anything other than crap.
You're a local inspiration for me. I certainly have my own direction(I hope for it to be seen in the coming months), but you're local, and you do really quality work. I am going to try to have a portfolio comparable to yours in quality by the end of this year.
You could probably teach me a thing or two about skin editing ;)
If you'd ever need a second photographer or want to collaborate on anything please contact me. I know I could learn a lot from you.
