Sunday Smut : Behind the Scenes

It’s not often that I have another photographer around while I’m shooting, but while in Portland, Isaac White

helped me with the lighting on all the sets I shot. And thank fuck for that, because I’m lucky I can turn a lamp on. He also took a bunch of behind the scenes shots, so now you can see what an ass I make of myself while I’m working.

Shooting Roza was SO great. I can’t wait to get the set back from post. She and I worked on a project together a few years ago for Suicide Girls, and have kept in touch since. She truly is a Great American Hero.

This was the first time I had ever met Casper, and I exhibited nothing but pure professionalism.

Oh, and two side notes :

The Howling video 1. I apologize to everyone that reads my blog via feeds or by email for the crap layout of the galleries. I’m working on fixing it, but can’t seem to get the plug-ins that I would like to use to talk to one another.
2. IT’S MY BIRTHDAY TODAY. It shall be full of pie.

Portland Recap

Samantha — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 00:50:01 +0000

Portland was fantastic. I mean, really, really great. I cannot believe how much we packed into such a short trip. Rather than list every tiny thing out in great detail (because I am lazy, and that would be boring), I instead shall give you a brief list and then bombard you with photos.

Devil’s Point : All that I will say is Stormy is a wonderfully terrible person, and I am glad cameras were not allowed inside.
Powell’s Books : I had a massive allergy attack Friday morning, so didn’t get to explore Powell’s as much as I would have liked, but did pick up a few things that I no longer had copies of.
The Shanghai Tunnels : More of a stand around listening tour than a walking tour, but still really neat, nonetheless.
The Rose Gardens & The Japanese Gardens : So very pretty. Even the squirrels are friendly.
Marathon shooting session : I shot five sets of five girls Saturday night. More on that in the future.
Shopping on Hawthorne : I have realized I’m a terrible vintage clothing shopper. I don’t have the patience to dig through racks, but I love old junk shops. Go figure.
VooDoo Donuts : Cock n Balls Special. Seriously.
Friends! Saw SO many friends in Portland, and made new ones. I am amazed by how friendly and awesome everyone in that entire city seems to be.

More photos to come, eventually. I still have to steal all of Courtney’s pics, and get all my film from my Holga developed. Speaking of, all my candids were shot with a 50mm 1.8 lens, and after this trip, I want to upgrade to the 50mm 1.4. I love how light the 1.8 is (it’s made of plastic), but the 1.4 is so much sharper. If I have a good summer, I’m going to get one. I also think I’m going to treat myself to a Diana+ for my birthday next week to keep my Holga company.
