One A Day, Day 104.
Starena 'again'. It's always going to be Starena and VADA again. Starena and I meet back in 2002, and VADA and I meet back in 2007. Debbie Doll goes back to late 1980's along with Melanie. KNOX is the curve ball, she was Gina, best friends with Debbie Doll's eldest daughter Loren. At that time she was 14 and pretty much lived at Debs house. Before she became KNOX she had been married and divorced, going to junior collage and at 20 done a test shoot with me and meet Shadyn and loved her to pieces.
Much of my work with women is a sustained involvement with they and their lives. The name I use here, Timmers was given me by Debbie's daughter Katie when she was 7, she told Debbie it was because I shimmered! Katie is now in her late 30's, elementary school teacher with two daughters of her own.
The first of the set is one of the best images I have ever made. That image and the rest came about as I had just cleaned the kiddy pool. I had just cleaned it and put it out in what Starena called The Secret Garden. In Texas we keep these pools for the dogs to cool off in during the hot days of summer. Starena was visiting from New Mexico with Bandit, so I had gotten one for him to cool off in.
Bandit had gone with Starena for her exercise run in the park area across the street. I herd the commotion in the kitchen as they returned, the door flew open from kitchen into the small side garden. Serena was bright red, soaking with sweat, her limited clothing glued to her. "I'm so hot! How do you stand this heat!" Starena reported. So I told her I had just washed Bandit's kiddy pool and invited her to cool off in the water.
She peeled off all her clothing and collapsed into the pool of water. I had the camera close to hand and began making images.
The two standing poses are verr attractive, Tim.
Young lady is charming.
Happy shooting and cheers!

Photo #5, just above her left ankle... I think I see a t.....
You really don’t care about the background at all, do you?
Of all of the images only 1 stands out and for the wrong reason... #1.."What could / might have been"...
This image to me stands out for the simple reason of its perfect apart from the photographers composition / position whilst taking...That really lets it fall flat and makes it a readers wives style shot rather than "WOW" which it has the potential to really transcend beyond and move into the 1 image 1 kill category.... if this had been taken from directly above looking down with the paddling pool framing that gorgeous pose from the model I would be bowing and grovelling in admiration... IMHO a monopod and wired remote trigger getting you directly over the model would have made the difference between its nice ...or this is an amazing shot on another level... But that is IMHO
I'm in on the second last one. And the kiddie pool is something I've thought about getting--looks like it works!

I agree with JoeJoe on #1, and I also like the second last one. However, with very little effort that bright spot of light passing through fence could/should be removed.

Here we go again, I'm afraid. Those backgrounds are incredibly amateurish and what makes them, at best, snapshots.
Her figure is outstanding. If you get down low to shoot you can often simplify the background, for example using the sky.

These are perfection, starting with the young lady, and your ability to pose her and/or work with her poses. Great art!
Beautiful lady who obviously enjoyed the shoot.
As always, thank you for sharing your images and background information.
