Deleted 2 images from this set that were just too sexy, but I am debating re-adding them.
Just watched “Sinister” starring Ethan Hawke and it was genuinely creepy. Now, listening to Lana Del Ray and editing images.
Adriana is one of the VS models that is actually closer to the body shape of the average female. So please don’t Photoshop her pictures to make her appear to be a skeleton.
I don’t usually re-blog things but this shit drives me crazy! She is perfect in the original and the level of re-touching they do is unreasonable and offensive.
I do very little re-touching in my work. I think stretch marks, scars and a little extra weight should be normalized, especially if it is on a healthy body! No wonder people have such negative body issues.

Oh yes.
Tell us what you want from future shoots.
Thanks for all of the geeky love….

There is nothing in this world I love more than this woman, and though I have photographed her thousands of times in the last three years, it is not even close to being enough.
This scrappy, lil waif has me wrapped around her finger and I never want to live a day without her.
I love you Liz La Point, and I can’t wait to read your book when it is finished!
(You all can buy our book of art now!)
Liz on Facebook…
All of my life I was interested in photography, and all of my life I was most interested in the female form in art. All of my adult life, I had …
So, We were reported on 500px.com for “pornographic content”, and being thin skinned at times, I take offense to that.
There is nothing in my eyes that is pornographic about our work.
NSFW???, yes!!! Sexy???, I hope so! Erotic???, maybe a little?
If I was making porn I would own it, but since I am not I don’t like the suggestion.
Sometimes I wonder if I should just stop sharing the work Liz and I do because I get sick of close-minded judgement but I vowed a long time ago not to let other people dictate what we do.
Personally, I’d like to sell thousands of prints and books and see Liz in major magazines but then I think, with positive feedback and fans also comes haters and back lash. I can take it, but I am not sure I would appreciate negativity directed at Liz.
Sorry, the endless stream of flowers and macro close-ups of eyes and bugs offends me but I don’t report them, lol.
I have always been more interested in capturing the female form than anything else. I know in our over increasingly politically correct world, that is less accepted, but I’m not going to stop doing it just because some people have issues with the human body.
I also prefer doing sexy, conceptual and editorial type sets that tell a story that might be playfully erotic, but you aren’t going to see penetration or super up close shots of genitals in my work.
Finally, I wish people would just message me directly and express what offends them so I have a sense of if I am actually creating something offensive or if someone is just being too sensitive.
I often censor myself and hold back. I would love to post work that pushes the boundaries just a little more but some overly sensitive jerk always spoils it for every one else.
Oh well. Luckily, I get to see all of my images of Liz and not a single one offends me!
