THIS GALLERY CONTAINS NUDES AND IS NOT SAFE FOR WORK (NSFW)

Violetta is a figure model from New Jersey who models in the mid-Atlantic area who was available in Baltimore. Her name comes from her favorite color...

For some of you out there interested in equipment, the studio was set for constant hot lighting to avoid flash photography. If you're watching the evolution of lens use, I still used the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM and the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di lenses more than usual, but I also found that I was able to make time for using the Canon 50mm f/1.4 and the 85mm f/1.8. I found this time I used the Tamron a lot more often than I did with the shoot with Tiana.

Makeup and outfits were provided by Violetta.

She can be found on ModelMayhem.

I took almost 1700 photos. Unlike "normal" where I throw out 60-75% for technical issues (usually focus), I found that was more like 20% this time. I then culled photos for setting, composition, and expression to 250. Now I'm selecting from those for what should be posted. As I do so and as I process them, I'll update this gallery over the coming days/weeks.

As usual comments and critiques are requested and if you like one of the shots (or the gallery), feel free to vote... Thanks!
