1709-1735 Amanda and Annalise
Elvaar: After the success of the somewhat candid 'performance' by Susie
and Nikki (there was no performing going on at all, we later
realised) we decided that a good girl-girl sequence was much more
about passion than what the girls look like. So we invited 5 Abby
girls around for an afternoon of fun and frivolity then asked them
all to write down on a secret ballot the name of the girl they'd
most like to shag. The only two-way match came from these two so we
set up our cameras and gave them the most basic of instructions -
'just have a good time and get right into it'. Sounds like a simple
recipe - but then so does making toast, and how often we burn it.
We did some good stills but unfortunately the video is a little
more Thespian than lesbian.
1736-1744 Haley Redux
Haley is one of those really quiet, easy going girls we love to
photograph. She was chuffed to be invited back and we were pleased
to see her skin had apparently not been impinged upon by a single
photon since the previous shoot. Ah, alabaster, thy glow does warm
the heart of my cockles.
1745-1789 Rural NSW, incl. Susie, Gretchen, Serena
One of the lurks of working for Abby Winters is that she's all for
trying new things (except food). So when somebody said "hey I've
got an idea, lets pack the gear up and set off to, say, a beautiful
seaside town and see if we can get some chicks to shoot?" Abby was
easily swayed. It was Autumn and we were staring at 5 months of
shivery so we thought, beachy is peachy, and we headed north to
Byron Bay. Well we weren't disappointed - no shortage of locations
and pretty girls. Susie was in charge of recruitment, with Serena
assisting and Gretchen, well she was freeloading nut we don't mind
one bit because Gretchen is cool, and funny.
1790-1802 Susie beach
We had just finished shooting somebody on a long stretch of
deserted beach late one afternoon when a full moon started to rise
and make an eerie late afternoon light. Susie had kept her clothes
on for, oh, days, and we knew it was only a matter of time before
this would happen. She took off down to the beach in a gallop,
ripping her gear off along the way in a very Sports Illustrated
way, as only Susie can do.
1803-1812 Petra train tracks
Petra was a big departure for Abby and especially, from the style
of shoots we'd been doing on this trip. We invited her down from a
northern capital on the strength of just a few sample shots,
something which had backfired on us once before but this time we
were totally arrested by what we saw that morning she arrived.
Given her smouldering looks and beautiful pearly complexion, the
beach was out so we decamped to a nearby railway line to get some
rusty juxtaposition to her pristine organic form (that's arty talk,
you probably won't understand - that's why we're here and you're
there.) The tracks were stinking hot so you might see her wincing
as she sits down the first time. And I'm not sure if the shots made
it into the set but in the distance you might see a car stopped on
the level crossing for an extraordinary amount of time - Petra
didn't mind, and we didn't mind, because the sound of mangling
metal would have given us handy warning of an approaching
train.
We're sorry about the boots, they don't suit the girl or the
location, but that's all she had. We're not one bit sorry about
Petra though.
