Who has a model that you can call just out of the blue and be shooting with on about 2 hour's notice? Tonight, we had a freaking awesome sunset in Phoenix and I was just dying to find a spur of the moment model. No luck.

Yes, me! Although I am listed as a photographer I have modeled. I'm just a tad over 5 10 and my weight is currently 117lbs.

Yeah, I've got a couple of local models who can do spur-of-the-moment things, if they are available.  If I can get a hold of them, I have a good chance.  This picture here was one such image (warning 18+):

It was a rare clear winter day, and in the afternoon, the light comes in through the window at a sharp angle.  Usually winter days are overcast here in Portland, so I can't schedule this light, and that window light is radically different in the Spring & Summer.  So, when I saw that the day was going to be clear, I called Leona & asked what she was up to.  As it turned out, she was available & was over in an hour.

Check my portfolio -- Kira is in there often, and she is another I can call on the spur of the moment, especially now that she lives within walking distance.

I am a muse for a photographer and if he called with a two hour notice, its no problem as long as I'm in town and not at work. big_smile

HA! That's funny John. Someone being available on 2 hours' notice. MUUUHAHAHAHAHA.

Now, *I* could be (as a photographer), but I ususally spend 2 weeks (at least) to get a model to reply, let alone try and schedule a shoot.

There's a nice girl that lives 2 hours south of me that I could probably do this with if I loved in her town.

"Loved in her town"?  Is that a Freudian slip?

I have some people I can call.  There's no guarantee that they'll be available, but I can call...

I have called Tatiana (MM 24040) on a couple of occasions to fill in on shoots and she was there, ready to shoot in less than 15 minutes.  smile  We've actually shot together 17 times...

Of course, that she lives about 2 miles away makes it easy.  wink

I don't know...he's been out galavanting all week.  I haven't seen him in a long time...

I think he found some hot model to shack up with.
