I'm going to be a little bit busy for the net few days. Valery Whitaker just called and she will be in tomorrow and will be popping over to the studio to 'visit' (food, wine, and loads of talking and cuddles with Bubble).

This is Valery off her Model Mayhem account so you will know the distraction of a Valery Whitaker will produce!

Two thoughts. First, if those first images aren't yours you probably shouldn't have posted them. Second, like me, you need to stay behind the lens, LOL.

She looks like a talented model. Have fun making images together.

Valery has right to post the images and to use the images to represent herself as to promotion of her modeling. I'm going to see if she wants to do a workshop or take some paid work. Of course the last image was done during a Meet Up and I have permission to use the image from a photo buddy.

At this point, there are no solid plans to do any work, just get togeather and drink some win and cook some food. I do have a shoot scheduled for Friday with another woman and I think Val will do styling and perhaps make some images. If so I will be posting some images from that session.

Val among other things, like modeling, is great at styling, creative ideas and she is doing loads of image creation with cameras.

#3 is extraordinary; her entire image in #4 is just SO nice. Would love to see #4 without Tim... (no offense).

Pretty? Val is just plain drop dead gorgeous! Inside and out. She is now 40 and is all world that her modeling days are over...silly babe!

Plus, she is super intelligent and extremely creative. She is great with a camera. The last workshop a guy with a new Nikon was having issues and Val stopped the session and went over, showed him on his camera after setting it for the flash in studio. I watched her showing a Canon guy how it was different for his model Canon. Ten asked if she could change the lights, and every guy listen as she adjusted the lights on a Dyno-Lite and replaced one of the soft boxes for a beauty dish. They all agreed that it was much better.

It's easy to get guys to try new lights and lighting when you are this gorgeous, neckid and know your way around a lighting studio. Val is just amazing. Just add beauty and grace, naughty thoughts, and a super smart brain and you get a Valery, just like her buddy down in Houston Liz Ashly (both are from Louisiana).

Also, she is tiny! That jacket is a young cadet in the Czars Army. An average woman can hardly get into the sleeves, dated about early 1900's. Val loved the double headed eagles on the brass buttons, reminded her of ancient Alchemical symbols...yes brainy women are the best!

I totally agree with you all!
Number 3 has become her signature style image. The jewelry is hers along with the wig, It really is one f her best looks. Every photographer wants her to do it.

She was working with a fashion photographer and took a break, went back to the studio after dusting herself with fine white foundation powder. The photographer and his assistant along with the stylist and MUA were all greatly impressed she told me. She decided to keep and add to the powder after having trouble opening a power box that spilled across her torso.

I think it is a great image because she is in her haunting laid back Val pose that she does so well. I told her it is about one of the best 'fashion' images she has.

Yes, Valerie Whitaker is a great model! And it's good to hear that she's still modeling. I shot with her over a dozen times when she lived up north and would often travel from Virginia/Washington, DC to metro NYC. For a time she lived in Brooklyn as well. One of the many advantages of shooting with Valerie was her vast wardrobe and different wigs and would bring a lot of it on a shoot! At a shoot, she could have 3, 4 or more different looks. She "retired" for a while as a model and started work as a MUA and stylist. Her MM page has not seen activity since 2015. Like many models, she has moved to social media. I wish her all the best!

It would be fun to see how she did with you. She is a wonderful person, just the best! She's been to the studio did over nighters as well. Once we went to the half off Wednesday Salvation Army Store here in San Antonio, she went crazy! Val loves clothes! I'm not sure we will shoot but I'm looking forward to talking and cooking and all the fun buddies get to do.

Well, it is 8:30 and no Val. I hope all is well. She is here to do something at the convention center. Oh well, Tomorrow!
