802 - 854 Gwyn dancing
Abby: Elvaar got Gwyn to dance for the video component of her shoot, and
I fired off a bunch of stills for fun. I really like her direct
looks at the camera.
Elvaar: These shoots, like most of the Melbourne January 2002 batch, were
done at my place. I was splitting my time between Abby and my
regular business and this was one of those days where I came home
to find the house turned inside out and nude girls all over the
place. Gee I miss that!
854 - 884 Gwyn peeing
Abby: Ah, the infamous pee sequence. Most models, when we ask them to
pee for us are a little mystified as to why we want it, but are the
kinda gals who'll give anything a go once bless 'em, and the good
thing is, they usually end up having a ball. Usually laughing at
the absurdity of it all. And Gwyn was no exception.
As you can see, we used a 'redhead' lamp with a daylight gel on it
to provide some extra fill for both stills and video, and I shot at
ISO800 and a slow shutter speed to get as much light onto the film
as I could manage.
Elvaar: The wee scene was marked by the usual hilarity. Like most girls,
Gwyn was all 'guys want to see THAT???' followed by 'sure, bring on
the fluids'. I'll let you in on a secret - those weren't her own
knickers, as she only wears G-strings. We carry a limited range of
garmentry for just such an occasion, and in this case chose the
colour which would best contrast when wet.
885 - 892 Gwyn on the ladder thing
Abby: This weird ladder thing was entirely Elvaar's idea, and now I have
had a play with it, it's actually a really cool ladder look at what
it can do!. It worked out well for this shoot, tho she was a lot
less graceful on the ladder in real life than she appears in these
pics. Kudos to Gwyn for looking relaxed and comfy!
Elvaar: Abby got an email from Gwyn recently - she's back home in frigid
London and dropped in to AW to see if her set was up, and tells us
she loves the site. Coming from a girl who isn't a regular dipper
in these murkier estuaries of the web, we took it as high praise
indeed.
893 - 900 Gwyn and Tara
Abby: Gwyn and Tara were best buddies, and they used to do this
dancing... thing together. I never really got the details, but as
soon as we heard about it, it sounded like an ideal premise for a
fun shoot. We cleared a space in the living room, and cranked up
the New Order Best Of... CD, and they danced away.
It was oh-so-hot that day and for all these shoots, peak of summer
in Melbourne, so we hired an air conditioning unit for a few weeks
the same one you hear at the start of the Joanne and Mianna video,
of course - we did this shoot a few days later.
Those little specks of white on the floor are tape, to mark the
space they had to stay within, to be in shot.
Elvaar: Gwyn and Tara are typical English travellers, working their way
around Oz doing what they can - waiting tables, washing cars, and
getting naked. This was their first shoot and they were kinda
nervous, and I think a bit unsure of what we wanted them to
actually do, so we put some doof-doof music on and let them dance
it up, something they're very adept at. Gwyn was less inhibited
than Tara and I got the impression she really liked cavorting
naked, as you can see in the garden pictures. I got to tell you
though, as a lawn mower, she makes a great model - but then you
probably wouldn't want to see my gardener naked either.
The day of the dancing shoot was really hot. That kind of weather
is good for getting girls naked in because they don't shiver and
complain, but the down side is the sweat, which doesn't photograph
well, so Abby hired in this mammoth air conditioner which sounded
like a DC-10 on take-off and sucked so much power I swear I could
see the power lines glowing out front.
