I haven't disappeared and I haven't stopped working. Just more busy with school than usual. Now to get to all those comments. . .

None of my work is stock. I have no problems with inspired works (i.e. my pictures being used as models for drawings or pose ideas for photographs). I like to use illustrations and photos as inspiration all the time. Any directly derivative (i.e. copying my image and then editing it with image editing software in any way or a direct trace of one of my photos) cannot be done and is illegal without my permission. Send me a note and let me know what you have in mind, if you would like to do a photoshop of one of my images (I'll probably say yes). ]]> *NuDigi http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/5762462/ http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/5762462/ Sun, 26 Jun 2005 13:19:08 PDT
Nothing much going on here. Finished updating my website. Should be easier to update in the future now. Check it out for stuff you can't see here.

Portraits this week and hopefully more.

If I had to give myself a title it would be digital photo artist. As much as I dislike referring to myself as an artist, I think it fits best. My medium and expression is digital, I love the instant gratification and the ability to reach out to millions of people thousands of miles away. Photography is my chosen tool. Originally I picked it up because o f my lack of illustrative talent. It has gone well beyond that and really changed the way I look at the world and everything around me. I only append the artist on there because what I capture with my camera is often no the image I had in my head. It is a means to get to what I want and it takes whatever “artistry I possess to finish the task. Digital is the paint; photography the brush. I am the artist.

I finished a very successful pinup shoot with Mana. I hope she likes the results. There were so many nice shots that it would have taken me forever to finalize all of them. I finally decided on 8 and may add a couple more after the weekend. Unfortunately I won’t be putting them all on dA. You’ll have to go to my website to see them (when I eventually update). For those wanted to see more of the Betty tattoo; I’m sorry that I wasn’t really focused on that and there aren’t any full tattoo shots.

Well I've accomplished some things in the past month. Got a Daily Deviation for one of my nudes on Deviant Art (on Mother's Day no less), another of my nudes on OMP was accepted into the b+w showcase, and a photo shoot I did for Mish got accepted by Suicide Girls. Can't wait to see what they do with it when it comes out of the indeterminate oblivion SG sets linger in.

I have plans for several nude works to do in the upcoming month. Will probably take three weeks before I actually get to shoot. Will be doing several couples and some female nudes. Maybe I'll get some fantasy stuff done as well. For those who have ever asked me if I do anything "tame", I''m inspired to go after a few non-nude things that have entered my mind.

Things to do:
Female Nude project, Code Name: Greek
Girls kissing, non-nude
Latex shoot, comic book/Shirow inspired
Uber Goth shoot
Face shots of Shan and Jessica
Pinup shoot, I'll have to ask Mana

I spent a while thinking about whether or not I would sumit anything this week. I did a photoshoot with a non-model. Along with jitters of first time shoots and inexperience, I didn't think I wanted to submit anything. With someone who is inexperienced posing, I usually just try to work through at an easy pace rather than nit pick and obsess as much as I normally would with a seasoned model. It may not make pictures that I really like, but it helps keep things easy and comfortable and builds trust and comfort for future work that will be of better quality because of it.

I decided to submit anyway. For the future I've decided to use my print account to be the sole repository of works I really like (I plan to clean it up jsut a little in the near future). dA will hold most of my work and my personal website will contain everything on dA and some works that are not.

The newest images of Talina are more personal and gritty and less elegant and abstract than the images of Chanti. Whether they are as well received; I don't know and I don't care. I must remind myself some time that I am ultimately creating erotic works. I may not be completely satisfied with all the other elements of composition, but if I can at least get a "nice tits", I have accomplished half of my aim.

1. Naked chicks man!

2. Landscapes don't have breasts.

3. Nature bites. Models hug.

4. Who needs a girlfriend/wife/significant other/female friends?

5. Everyone wants to be friends with a pornographer.

6. Nude photography gets the best critiques on dA.

7. You get to hear every woman comment on how her ethnicity or morphology is not
represented in your body of work. Do they want to model. No.

8. Girls treat you like a stalker/perv when you give them your card.

9. People will like you/your work if you are tasteful (substitute your own nondescriptive, relative term here if you like) and not pornographic (images of sex), explicit (clearly expressed, not reserved), or vulgar (low, common).

10. Naked chicks man! Why did you pick up the camera in the first place?

Thanks to all who enjoy my work. Feedback and constructive criticism are greatly appreciated. ]]> *NuDigi http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/5301073/ http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/5301073/ Sun, 08 May 2005 10:14:09 PDT Mood: !

Well I go out for a night out come back and I've got a DD and more comments and messages than I can handle. (I really thought it had to be a server error when I looked at the numbers). I usually use the people who message and comment on my work to help me browse through the 12,000,000 deviations on the site. It's gonna take me forever to go through all of these.

I wanted to go through all of the more involved comments to thank those who provided more than just "nice photo/hot girl/etc." as a comment before I added any more deviations. There were too many and I really want to just add the last of my images of my shoot with Chanti. Thanks to all those who have commented on my recent work. It is always helpful to hear what someone likes, what emotions it invokes, or what strikes someone about one of my photos.

Thanks all commenters ]]> *NuDigi http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/4843889/ http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/4843889/ Fri, 18 Mar 2005 07:54:19 PST Listening to: Chrysalis (A23)

Well anyone who has been paying attention to my little corner of dArt knows I've been absent for about 6 months. Moved out of house, moved in with parents, moved out of parents, moved in another house, and now I'm back in school. Just starting to get things together again so that I can shoot regularly (or as much as I can negotiate). I hope that I can continue to put things out and accomplish my goals for the year. Still working on improving my technique so that eventually I can figure my personal style / aesthetic and improving the professional look of my photography.

Thanks to all the critiques, comments, and favs. I promise I will get around to responding accordingly to them all. ]]> *NuDigi http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/3409555/ http://NuDigi.deviantart.com/journal/3409555/ Mon, 20 Sep 2004 19:35:04 PDT
I have received several comments regarding lack of expression or emotion in some of my bondage shots. I don't really know to go with this actually. In my photography I am not playing with or having sex with my models. Due to the fact that I am pretty much going through all of my ties clinically and not focused on creating discomfort or ordeal, model expressions tend to be neutral. If I were to ratchet things up to create more pained or discomforted expression, I would feel I am crossing an ethical line I am not sure about crossing. Up to this point, I have only worked with models not performers. I would be interested in hearing the opinion of other photographers, models, and performers on this issue.
