BlueRiverDream

Arlington, VA

THIS ROOT GALLERY WILL BE WORK SAFE. I WILL SEGREGATE NUDES TO A SUB-GALLERY THAT CAN BE "REGULATED" (BANNED) BY PBASE. IN THIS WAY, I HOPE TO ALLOW UPDATES TO SHOW UP, WHILE NUDES CAN BE REGULATED IN THE SUB-GALLERY TO MAKE PBASE MORE WORK-/FAMILY-FRIENDLY.

BlueRiverDream is a beautiful and fun model in Northern Virginia who (relatively) recently moved to the NoVA area. She is fun to work with and very cool in a geeky way (she's the only model, aside from my wife, who has noticed my flashlight and she also brought her own DSLR to the shoot). She's very unique, down to earth, and easy to work with.

For some of you out there interested in equipment, the studio was set for constant "hot lighting" to avoid flash photography through the use of "cold" 5000K/6500K color-balanced compact flourescent bulbs. I've been using: the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM and the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di lenses. But also used my 50mm/1.4. I have not yet "wrung out" the Sigma 50mm/1.4 for sharpness so it has not found it's way into my "at hand" lenses.

Makeup was done by BlueRiverDream and outfits were provided by both BlueRiverDream and myself.

She can be found on OneModelPlace and ModelMayhem.

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