Useful Terms



I spent a happy Saturday taking around 774 pictures of my friend, Valerie. It was my first shoot with a tripod and let me tell you, that makes all the difference in the world. Valerie was a blast to work with which also makes a big difference. We had a lot of silly pictures mixed in with a lot of very overt pictures. One of the best parts about working with friends who know you is that you can suggest terribly inappropriate shots and their response is a giggle followed by compliance.

During this shot, I mentioned that this was called the 'climax grip'. I made the term up but the purring was worth it.

Lovely, very lovely. I love that view, I love that grip, I love that position.

Great shot, Shon.

And I love that grip. Mmmm.

Musns- Purrs are the best confirmation of a good idea.

t'sade- Whimper is good too. I have to say I try to recreate this shot every time.

tess- It is a nice grip :)

Yes, indeed, that photo needs to be next to "climax grip" in the dictionary.

One of my favorite positions in life.
