Photography hints, and a request

[glockenspiel]

Although not currently a photographer, I see a few rookie mistakes made that might be improved by some of the ladies.

1) Bright window in the background - you want a dark background, not a light one

2) Picture always taken from above the lady - get down to her eye level at least

3) Insisting on taking pictures of the whole body with a big space around. Boring. Get closer. I find that Jackie Reese's photographer makes this mistake all the time. I would love to see more pics of her much closer. Try just the top, just the bottom, maybe the face from the eyes down. We have no interest in seeing the paneling or walls of the room you are in.

4) Constant facial expressions. I don't know about you, but I get turned on by a variety of diverse facial expressions, but too much sweet smiling can get boring. Dear Em is Excellent in this area - I love her hint of naughtiness, sometimes a beginning of a mocking smile. All sorts of wonderful scenarios run through my head when I see that.

Kinky Kristi is also good at having a seductive, understated smile, her head turned to one side, that makes me want to ravage my computer monitor when I see it!

Also, try some stern, even angry looks. Imperious, haughty, scornful, intense smoldering stares. What about a tongue swirling around the lips? Squinting glare. Teeth bared. Biting the lip. I really like Jilly, but I wish she would have a few more 'mean' looking shots!

Who said you even need to look at the camera? Don't be looking at the camera with the same smile every time. Look back over your shoulder at the camera. Etc

5) Angles - I love upshots! A low angle shot with her looking down at the camera..

6) Standing up with legs crossed, in a dominant, don't give a damn pose, while staring at the camera Love it

Oh Joy has a lot of creative photography:

I find a fantasy about an older woman is that she is seducing me, and she enjoys tempting me, seducing me, watch me lose control. For that, a look that is almost like the superior smile you give someone you have just humiliated is in order. I suppose there's a bit of a dominatrix element to it.

I am around 50, but I still fantasize about being a teenager, and being seduced by my landlady when I was away at school.

I also have a fantasy of a group of women sitting around laughing and mocking as I am jerked off in front of them, perhaps because I owe them money so I have to submit to it, - regardless, for that a totally mocking smile is in order!

[glockenspiel]

proceed, madam, proceed!

You know, another look that i really like is a fully clothed, prim and proper maybe schoolmistress look, with reading glasses that you have on and are looking over at the camera with a kind of stern, bossy look.

[glockenspiel]

Try this:

First of all, a not too bright room, maybe just a lamp or two. You are laying on your back on the bed, pillow, you are not completely flat, but not too upright either. some of your hair might be on your face. You have an unclasped white or flesh colored bra undone revealing most of one breast. A bit of the bra is in the picture. Your face is tilted to one side a bit, and NOT tilted down , just kind of straight ahead, but your EYES are looking waaaay down at the camera, only half open, the picture starts just below the nipple on one breast, up to in between the eye and the eyebrow, you have a look of serious sexual pleasure, which is NOT a smile, its a kind of serious look, the look you would give while moaning. The picture is framed vertically, don't bother about getting the other breast in it. Don't use a bright flash, the key thing is the face.

This picture of course is meant to evoke the view i would get from performing oral on you.

Oh yes, youmight want to consider using a slight telephoto setting, putting th efocus on your eyes, so that if necessary it is the breast that is blurry.

sorry I cant type worth a damn

[Dear Em SC1]

Thank you for the lovely compliment - and for visiting my site enough to see the different expressions. Perhaps the ability to give the stern look comes from years of being a teacher and forcing myself to give a naught boy "the look" when I was really laughing inside!

And thank you too for the wonderful suggestions - I will certainly share them with my photographer.

Glad to see you using the new SC Forum! Hope you enjoy it.

My Dear Em, if you only knew the fantasies you have a starring role in...

[glockenspiel]

Here's one for Dear Em:

Awhile back I was reading about testicular ultrasounds, and it got me thinking. There is Em, the technician about to do this procedure on me. We are alone, and it is late in the day, around 4:30. All the other people in the clinic have left. She is of course stern and imperious, emotionless. I get on the examination table, then, with dimmed lights,she starts to take out equipment. She very briefly tells me that they are now using a new model ultrasound, and that although it takes a lot longer to use, the results are superior. In fact, she will be using two at the same time, because she needs one on either side of whatever it is she is examining.

So off we go. I lay back on the table, small towel covering my cock, balls exposed below, legs far apart, held by stirrups. She sits in a swivel chair beside me and taps away into a computer awhile. Then she brings out a pair of instruments. I can hardly see in the dark, but, contrary to what I am expecting, as she turns it on, I hear a noticeable buzzing sound. She explains that previous ultrasound wands gave no sensations, but this new type has a vibrating sensation. It is crucial that I stay absolutely still, so I had best get comfortable. So I put my hands behind my head, close my eyes and relax.

To my surprise, she lifts my penis slightly, while still keeping it mostly covered, then puts one of the ultrasound wands just below the base of my cock on the top side, then switches it on. Immediately powerful vibrations course through me. I then feel the other begin to extremely slowly move around my testicles. If I look out of the corner of my eye I can see her face intermittently flitting between the wands and the computer. No emotions visible at all.

Of course i begin to get hard, then her movements start to involve not just moving the wands around, but also pushing it in at spots. My erection gains steam, and I can feel the towel covering it beginning to slip to one side. I realize that in moments it will slide off, so I quickly reach forward to position it.

She groans in exasperation. "You moved. I told you not to. You just can't move even slightly during this procedure. Now we will have to start again"

So we wait for 5 minutes, then start all over. Again, I get an erection, and off falls the towel, but I dare not move. So I get harder and harder, my cock starts to bob and jerk, yet I can't move a muscle. she clears her throat, "This will take about an hour and a half, so please whatever you do don't move". an hour and a half? Holy crap. So on it goes, I get closer and closer to cumming but its awful because my cock isn't actually being touched. Her face remains impassive, she is staring at my balls seemingly oblivious to my raging cock twitching and spasming in front of her. Finally there is such a build up that I can't stand it any longer, and my cock starts to disgorge itself of its contents in a thoroughly undignified fashion. I look at her face - it is still staring at my balls, in spite of it! She has completlly ignored my cock cumming right in front of her, treating it like it is no big deal!

Yet even then, she carries on! The movements continue, as if nothing had happened. Unbelieveable! I drift off almost to sleep, then awake with a start 20 minutes later to realize that this damn procedure is still going on, and that I am getting hard again. Eventually I cum again, and still no reaction!

After the procedure is finished, she nonchalantly gives me a paper towek to clean up, then as I am about to leave th eclinic, tells me that in her estimation, my case is very complex, and that she will recommend to my doctor that I come back every week for the next 2 years to undergo the same procedure to monitor my progress..

And on it goes.

[Dear Em SC1]

And if I tell you that this made me laugh out loud will you be offended? I certainly hope not because it did indeed. Started with a slow smile as I was reading paragraph three....grew into a chuckle with paragraph four and had to laugh out loud with paragraph six.

Actually sounds like a wonderful SC video!

Thanks for sharing.

[Autumn SC1]

Glock, you've got a great eye for shots. I thought I'd share a few of mine to see if they get a nod...

[AlysaSC3]

Thanks for informative post glock. I think this is exactly why we need this forum. I'm just starting out on SC and know I've made some of these mistake. Please keep your tips coming so rookies like me can improve our picture quality for our fans. Feel free to check out my page and let me know if you have any tips for me! Thanks again!

[Bea Brite SC2]

You know what? I just went back and looked at my last six updates, BORING! Like Serena I've always wanted my fans to know that I enjoy what I'm doing and my smile has always been one of the things my fans loved. Let's face it though to much of a good thing can be just as bad. I'm going to go back and take a look at the current update I'm working on and see if I don't need to include some of those photos I've always considered bloobers. I still won't use what I call my "Bea on drugs look", because believe me no one else wants to see that one either. There are plenty of the others though and I won't be taking them all out from now on.

Thanks so much for your input.

[Mirage SC4]

I always use all my photos even with some unusual facial expressions. And I have lots of them!

[glockenspiel]

OK - keep in mind that I am in no ways the final word on these pics, I just have my own naughty fantasies which lead me in certain directions photographically speaking.

Sultry Serena - the pic of you on the couch with the book - something like that i would frame much much smaller - basically from about two inches above the right eye (your ACTUAL right eye, which we see on the left) to just above your left nipple. Forget about the legs etc. I would also straighten you up a bit, make your face a little more imperious. A MUCH darker picture. In fact DARKNESS or rather BRIGHTNESS is one of my pet peeves. Most of my lustful activities take oplace in semi-darkness, which is how I like it, so when I see a real bright pic I automatically associate it LESS with sex.. You are my wife's sister, divorced, I am staying at your place while in your city on business, it is after midnight and i have come downstairs to get a drink, and there you are...

autumn - 2 out of the 3 pics seem to have a bright window behind it, suggesting daytime.

Alysa - the room walls are kinda bright and very close to your own skin colour.
http://www.southern-charms3.com/alysa/al22x001.jpg - in this pic try cropping from just above and to the right (camera's left) of your right eye, so that you just barely have the two eyes in the pic. Then teh opposite corner will be at a height (down) just where your two legs cross, and the pic will extend to the right to the point where all the flesh on your left leg (camera's right) i s exposed, as well as a bit of the black stocking. Try it, it to me is a much more erotic picture, with more of a focus on that gorgeous ass. I would without hesitation, shame or remorse BURY my face in that ass. Only other two things are in your iriginal pic you see htis bright reflection on the wall from the flash, reminding everyone that there is aguy taking a pic, and we also dont need the wall outlet distracting us.

Your face is VERY very goo din this pic - a sort of "I'm kinda innocent but...not really.Finger in the mouth is wonderful.

Bea - I used to look at you rpics all the time - you GOTTA get a stern, dominatrix type look, you would do so well at it! Make sure the camera is almost ALWAYS BELOW your face.

Everyone sorry fo rthe utterly crappy typing but I just cant be bothered to always go back and correct.

[glockenspiel]

Mirage - I think you need a lot of cropping to get more of you, less of the walls. When I first saw you, you immediately reminded me of the hooker in Police Academy who sucks off the guys as they are talking at the podium. I just seem to associate you with oral, so some close ups of your mouth, maybe - why not? - with a little bit of DROOL - not SPIT, drool - starting to dribble on you rlips on one side, as you stare slightly down, lips parted.

You are my landlady, who I owe 3 months back rent to, and in order not to get kicked out of the place i have to come to your place, late at night, EVERY NIGHT, and allow you to ever so slowly suck me off, for hour o rmore, toying with my cock, I can't stand it, yet I must submit to it, on and on, day after day, you smiling as I arrive, knowing the power you now have over me...

[glockenspiel]

Hey Alyssa, I was thinking, if that is your only room, try candlelight only, no flash.

[LISALUST SC1]

JORJA You are always stunning babe but i gotto say the first pic and the last one took my breath away great shots!

[Mirage SC4]

My closeups are for members eyes only. Check out my videos for oral!

[Alexus Lin SC1]

How are theses expressions? like most of you I like to smile and show the world I love what I am doing,
but then I don't always smile I can look mean too and get into a bit of role playing.

Alexus - the only thing I would say, and again, this is just MY preference, but I would say get much closer, forget about the legs and the knees in at least SOME pics, go from the bust up. Try cropping out the top of the head even, it gives a very close, immediate kind of impression. Now for the police one, that is different, you need the stance there...

For the middle one, try keeping the head exactly where it is, but have the eyes looking at the camera, it will have a very sinister, sexy feel to it, any shot where the eyes are extended as far away from dead center as possible can creat a very sneaky kind of look, and sneakiness is next to sexiness..

For the first one, imagine th ephotographer was a bit more to your left, then adjust the top so that your breast is a little bit exposed, but not like it was pulled OUT, like it was just exposed as you bend over, the picture would be like you have caught me sneaking a peak down your blouse and your face lets on that you like having caught me .

[glockenspiel]

Alexus - I would love it if you would try this for yourself - the police pic, crop it at the bottom about 2 inches below the shorts, that way we still get the essence of the aggressive crossed legs look. Then crop at the top about half way between the top of the head and the glasses.

As for the sides, on the right crop just outside the baton, then on the other side just make sure the entire glove is included. Try it and post here. I think it is much more dramatic.
