Okay. Technologically everything in my life is insanely fucked up right now.  My phone keeps dropping calls and texting people random things in the middle of the night and one of my external hard drives crashed and my internet pretty much stops working at night for some insane reason. I could deal with all of that if my fucking website was working.  It is not.  I still have no idea why I can’t upload galleries but I think I have found a temporary solution.  I am going to use Word Press’ gallery system which is not ideal but will work for the time being.  Let’s see how this goes…

One of my favorite shoots in LA was with a model named Orian. I discovered her by a series of coincidences.  The first was that when I was visiting a friend in Texas he had this amazing girl with amazing lips as the background of his computer. I was sort of blown away by this girl and I wondered where he found her. I knew that I must try to shoot her!  He had no idea and tragically I just had to move on with my life.  The second coincidence came a few months later.  I was on a modeling website and one of the banners for their site just happened to be the same girl from the same photo set!  I probably wouldn’t have even made the connection if it hadn’t been almost the exact photo he had on his computer.  Her name was Orian and I sent her a message.

Turns out that she had quit nude modeling. She had a boyfriend now and she had retired. We exchanged a few messages but once again tragically I had to move on with my life. This was probably two years ago.  Then randomly about 3 months ago I got a message from the same girl.  She told me she was modeling again and would LOVE to shoot with me. She told me she was a fan of my site and my work and if I was ever near LA she would come and meet me!  I told her I had plans on making a trip in January and she told me to hit her up when I was in town.  When I got to LA she was one of the first people I texted.  She lives about an hour away and I knew I would have to plan around her.

The apartment I was staying in was not idea for shooting but I had this idea that if I put her by the window I could get some nice shots.  Unfortunately because of traffic she ended up coming a bit late and I didn’t think we would have enough light. I decided to try to shoot in the kitchen but my white balance was all over the place and I got quickly frustrated.  I decided to say fuck it and put her back in the original location.  I had to raise my ISO a bit higher than I wanted to but it turned out that there was plenty of light if I opened my lens almost all the way up. It made for some nice soft shots with almost no depth of field. I really love these shots.

I really loved shooting this girl. She has maybe the greatest ass ever and her lips are pretty much life changing. She was a great model and I have already started convincing my photographer friends that we need to make her famous.  She’s already started planning a trip to NYC to shoot with Ellen Stagg (and me again!) and I am sure other NYC photogs will be lining up to shoot her.  I shot some amazing girls in LA but this was probably my favorite shoot. I hope you love it.

Okay, since my galleries are broken you are going to have to just continue looking at these after the jump. The problem is that these images don’t open in a new window so it might get insanely annoying to view them. As soon as I figure this shit out I’ll fix this. Also, obviously these photos are NSFW but these pictures are a little bit dirtier than you might normally find on here.  Just fair warning… I am sure you won’t mind too much.

UPDATE! My galleries are kinda fixed! Click here to see all the pictures of Orian!
