Today I had the pleasure of shooting Tori Black and she breathed some light on my otherwise dim hardcore attitude. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258679430_1.JPG"> <br/" <br/"I first met Tori a few years back while she was here for production and Mark was shooting her. She was a bit heavy, had a real pretty face and I knew she was shooting hardcore. We never spoke that day and in general with those 'industry' girls, for me less is often more when it comes to conversation. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258679458_1n.JPG"> <br/" <br/"Maybe I'm particularly sensitive now because I have a pre-teen daughter or maybe it's just the years of carnage I've seen pile up on the women that make that 'porn' choice for their lives. But, on occasion we shoot one of the XXX girls and she shocks us with her resolution about her choice of work. <br/" <br/"A few girls that come to mind would be Alexis Texas and Jenna Jameson. Years apart, I had the opportunity to shoot both of them early in the porn careers and truthfully they were very happy and committed to their life of being pummeled by penises. Both girls gleefully bragged of their overloaded sex drives and how their work just seems to appease them. <br/" <br/"And how could we be sad about that? In fact, with sex being such a wonderful and natural thing, if they truly love it and have no fear or shame-what the heck. Unfortunately the majority of the girls we shoot (who go down that hardcore alley) are generally just victims of the porn system-they usually do it just for money and typically are lost souls just surviving. More often than not the view from here is heartbreaking and probably one reason why we really try not to shoot hardcore industry girls. <br/" <br/"But back to Tori. She was here a few months ago for a quick interview and man, she'd lost a ton of weight, and was poised and beautiful like we'd never seen her before. We just had to shoot her --I finally got to put my lens on her today and more important got to talk with her about her life and choice of hardcore. <br/" <br/" <img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258679516_3.JPG"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258679527_4.JPG"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258679541_6.JPG"> <br/" <br/"She's emphatic about her sexuality and her love of 'cock' as she puts it. At one point in the day with her beauty and modeling prowess so evident we commented that she was pretty enough to do commercial work. "No dicks and no nudity, I could never handle it" she belted out with laughter, a big smile on her face. Ultimately Tori was bright, light and funny and not for a minute did we detect a broken soul. <br/"So what the heck Tori---you go girl! <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258679608_5.JPG"> <br/" <br/" <br/"One more item about the day. I got to do the first shoot ever on our new wall. This beautiful wall (and set) was created by Johnny and JP. What an insane job they did with it! It was my pleasure shooting beautiful Tori against their work of art. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258679659_m.JPG"> <br/" <br/"Ok folks, over and out <br/" <br/"J.

We only shoot genuinely attractive girls, we work with a code of integrity and respect, and we work out in stable country, near a bunch of ranches. We call our studio Hicks Ranch, and we're kind of out in the boonies here in Agoura. <br/" <br/"Working out in nature is pretty great, we have some amazing views here at the office, such as: <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258587357_bts.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Oops, err wait, I meant stuff more along the lines of: <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258587386_ranches.JPG"> <br/" <br/"Yes, that's the view right outside one of our office windows, viewing some of our horse ranching neighbors. It isn't all horses here; we have lizards, rabbits, frogs, insects, and every so often, a snake. At other times of the year the frogs live in a little pond next to our front door: <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258587529_froghome.JPG"> <br/" <br/"One unfortunate thing about living up here is a larger than average number of vermin, rats specifically. Luckily, keeping watch over the inside of our house, is a much more pleasant animal, our cat Boop: <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258587587_boop.JPG"> <br/" <br/"Life here at the Ranch is pretty great; we're not shackled to the confines of an urban landscape. I think that being out here puts us all in the right frame of mind to keep doing what we do. <br/" <br/"-- Andrew <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258587686_bee.jpg"> <p" <strong"Read more Studio editorial at <a"a href="http://www.digitaldesire.com/">Digital Desire</a"</stronge" </p" http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-18 http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-18 <img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258424660_10436_25.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Known as the model look/see, they are sometimes planned as late as that same morning and sometimes they are as random as a cell phone call from five miles out but they are often some of the most enjoyable, appreciated and down-right interesting occurrences here on the Ranch. Sometimes known as a go/see and sometimes known as a model casting although the latter is a little formal for around here. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258424723_10435_14.jpg"> <br/"--Sandy knows how to pose! <br/" <br/"The appointed look/see is often scheduled by the model's agent and is often arranged a day or two in advance. Either Johnny or myself are made aware of the scheduled times so we can prepare the strobe system and the room in the studio where the shots will be taken. The light is dialed to a solid f11 to assure sharpness in the horizontals, the electronic transmitters are checked, and on cold days the fire place is lit to add to the cozy hospitality. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258424763_back0807_052.jpg"> <br/"--and she makes us all laugh. <br/" <br/"On one particular morning I followed a potpourri of fragrance up the driveway, down the mountain side steps and in through the office door to a game of musical chairs being played by five models (we only have three chairs in the office reception area) as they took turns going to the head and losing their seat to the girl who was standing. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258424802_10437_16.jpg"> <br/" <br/"The new girls are often anxious to tell stories of their abilities as well as flirt with the boys in the hopes of being remembered for a call back while the established models, who understand the process as well as we do, quietly fill out their paperwork and flatter the rest of us with their smiles and that sachet of confidence as they climb the stairs. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258424828_10436_29-just19.jpg"> <br/"--from Sandy's "just 19" set. <br/" <br/"Monday afternoon I was surprised to see the beautiful Sandy Summers hanging out with Mark in the living room as Stephen was talking business with her agent. I never had the opportunity to meet Sandy or even speak with her before this day so I was thrilled with the introduction. Sandy was vibrant and excited to share with Mark and I her new camera that not only has a screen on the back but a tiny screen on the front so the subject too can view the moment before the shutter is released. This was the first time we were the models and the "model" the photographer but Sandy proved worthy and promised to send us both our new portraits. <br/" <br/"Hope y'all have a great week! <br/" <br/"Jp <p" <strong"Read more Studio editorial at <a"a href="http://www.digitaldesire.com/">Digital Desire</a"</stronge" </p" http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-17 http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-17 <br/"The talk here at the ranch this past week is about Talia Shepard. Talia is a beautiful fresh young girl with many goals in life. She has a huge passion for modeling and wants to see how far it can take her. The one thing I had to mention to her was to stay away from the hardcore world. She replied that she wouldn't do that in a million years. "I don't even like to do girl-girl" she said. As Stephen has told you in the past we always tell the models not to enter that world, but only 5% might listen. We try and then we wish them the best of luck. Stick to your word Talia and keep up the hard work. <br/" <br/"The three amigos and miss foxy <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258416114_1.jpg"> <br/" <br/" <br/" <br/"One thing all models request this time of year is heat please. We are fortunate to have four fireplaces, two portable heaters and the super blaster here at the Ranch. The super blaster is a fire ball of heat that keeps the body warm and still makes the nipples hard at the right time. It seems to be the model's best friend when we shoot outside around this time. <br/" <br/" <br/"Girl's best friend-heater. Man's best friend-boobs. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258416421_2.jpg"> <br/" <br/" <br/"The day was cold and cloudy but Talia was still up for shooting outside. <br/" <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258417007_3.jpg"> <br/" <br/" <br/"Boss man even jumped in for half the day :) <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258417086_4.jpg"> <br/" <br/" <br/"In between shots Talia and I have a craziest face contest. I so won. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258417294_5.jpg"> <br/" <br/" <br/"To end the day we shot covers and a video of Talia that is going to freak your mind.

Lucky for all of us they have been more than happy to share this essence in our pictorials and videos. Keeping with this trend, is Talia Shepard. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258307905_4.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Talia was awaiting an important call from her agent during this pictorial, so she kept her cell close by. She stashed it under the pillow she was laying on. Her ring tone was a song from the band Tsar. Talia picked up the call as the song "Band, girls, money" ripped from her phone. She talked while I snapped a few pictures. I had to crop in tight for this shot because she was holding a can of Red Bull. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258307923_2.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258307939_5.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258307960_8.jpg"> <br/" <br/"It was my pleasure photographing Talia. Her pretty face is camera friendly, and the way she throws looks with her expressive cat shaped eyes is amazing. This is highlighted by the way our masterful make up artist, Jennifer lays a smokey drop shadow below her bottom lashes. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258307973_9.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258307990_7.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258308003_6.jpg"> <br/" <br/"This was Talia's first time in Los Angeles so aside from shooting with us, she was most excited about touring Hollywood because of her fascination with movies. Second on her list was hitting Malibu and its picturesque beaches. Unfortunately, even in Malibu it gets too cold for the sand. To make up for Mother Nature, we let her layout out naked by the pool during lunch. What a life. <br/" <br/" <img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258308018_11.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1258308034_1.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Thanks for the look, and for your support of Digital Desire, celebrating the female form since 1998. <br/" <br/"Mark Lit <br/" <br/" <p" <strong"Read more Studio editorial at <a"a href="http://www.digitaldesire.com/">Digital Desire</a"</stronge" </p" http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-13 http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-13 Ok guys & gals, here's some 'Inside Scoop'--a little trash, a little gossip <br/" <br/"I bet you didn't know; <br/" <br/"Alexis was a cheerleader/good girl growing up in a very small town in Texas.

During this round table Stephen asked each of us to share our opinions on changes he felt were most necessary to further improve the look and usability of DigitalDesire. The feedback from these discussions is top fuel for the machine because each of our ideas stems from a mutual love and appreciation for women as well as a unanimous desire for an enjoyable web experience.

I'd have to say, a large percentage of the models we shoot, don't give a damn what they wear for our pictorials; they leave it up to the photographer to decide what looks best. Nadia on the other hand, had much to say. She pretty much insisted that she wear the tan panty/bra/garter get up that she is show casing in the first 5 photos. Man, am I glad she insisted. I think she wears it well.

At the moment all Nadia could do was raise a hand in salutation since this was also the critical moment in which the eye pencil is making its mark just below the cornea. Past moments similar to this one were quickly followed by a scolding from our make up artist, Jennifer who takes the greatest responsibility toward keeping the model comfortable and out of harm's way while in her chair. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1257302037_002.jpg"> <br/" <br/"That also means safe from the flirtations of the guys. I haven't met a model yet who hasn't enjoyed and anxiously participated in a morning flirt session. Most of the girls like to one up the boys-sharing a story of a previous romp or boasting up their abilities during that romp; but not during eye make up or worse yet-the lips. I haven't had it happen under my watch on the Ranch but Jen has told me stories on how her lip lining pencil or lip brush ran off course leaving a trail across a girl's cheek after a jokes antidote proved too hilarious to handle. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1257302045_003.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Back to Nadia. While verifying her identification I noticed that Nadia was from Michigan which should have come as no surprise to me. There is a real humbling quality from mid-western girls as well as a nurturing that leaves you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Nadia moved through the day comfortably for a model who was experiencing her first high end glamour shoot and kept us all feeling quite grateful toward our occupations or more simply put-she made us smile every minute of the day. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1257302054_004.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Hope these backstage shots make y'all smile just as wide. <br/" <br/"Jp <br/" <br/"p.s. <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1257302063_005.jpg"> <p" <strong"Read more Studio editorial at <a"a href="http://www.digitaldesire.com/">Digital Desire</a"</stronge" </p" http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-03 http://www.digitaldesire.com/glamour-tour/common/word/single/2009-11-03 The time change brings us to an early sunset here on the west coast, depriving us of two hours of natural light. Without the sun it forces us to become a little bit more creative as to how we use the light. My first day working here at Hicks Ranch I learned a lot about natural light. About how to mood light, window light, the beauty of back lighting and a lot more tricks on just how to work with the beauty of natural light. Now that we lose the sun two hours earlier we are forced to use more of our studio lights, keno Flo, hot light, strobes, although with the Canon 5d mark ii our ISO can be shot in very slow light.

We're all gaga about her over here at The Ranch. She's beautiful and cute at the same time... and we all finally agreed who she reminds us of...Lacey Chabert (AKA Claudia Salinger from the early nineties show "Party of five". Strange? I know. On a side note, this game of "What celebrity does the model look like?" is very popular here, and is a staple of every production day. <br/" <br/"I agreed to meet Nadia at The Ranch at 7:30am, a half hour earlier than usual because it was the only time her agents "driver" was able to drop her off. She had flown in from Michigan a few days prior to this so she had little if any control over her transportation situation. <br/" <br/"When I met her in the driveway she was wearing a styling sort of outfit consisting of a tight black skirt, black pumps, a fitted black and gold jacket and an over sized pair of sunglasses. I would have shaken her hand but her arms were full of wardrobe bags. She brought a lot of wardrobe. Because of the vicious looking shoes she was wearing, I told Nadia to be careful walking up the steps to the house, "No worries" she said "I live in heals." As she filled out the model releases we each had a bowl of oatmeal and discussed the game plan for the day. <br/" <br/"Nadia had done many amateur shoots before this day, but I was surprised to learn this was going to be her first time in a make up chair in the care of a professional make up artist. Despite being new to modeling, Nadia was impressive. She took direction well and was a natural when it came to posing. Most importantly, she has true sex appeal and knows how to use it. I have a feeling she can get any man she wants, and she knows it.

Since my first Penthouse Centerfold was shot in 1984 you can imagine how different things were back then (No matter what age you are don't you typically hate it when older people say, 'in my day...').

I was forever having to either shoot in fairly bright sunlight (often supplementing the existing light so much that it killed the light quality) or I'd need to use artificial light (mostly strobe) and try and create nice synthetic light from the start. <br/" <br/"This location shot of Victoria exemplifies the old use of strobe light, tungsten accents, balanced to daylight--a pain in the ass with little mobility <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256775970_victoria.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Of course as a longtime observer of light and light quality I've always known the most magical light is low light-that which is illuminating at the beginning or end of the day or merely subtle open shade that happens constantly. <br/" <br/" <br/"The very first digital cameras we used for shooting our models didn't even provide equivalent quality to 100 ISO film. Images were noticeably less contrasty, less saturated and overall a bit grainier. But we still loved the digital concept and started using the cameras. <br/" <br/"Early images with digital like this of Jordan were nearly as restrictive as film with minimal quality <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256775942_jordan.jpg"> <br/" <br/" <br/"A year later we were able to shoot our digital images at ISO 200 with pretty good results. At that point doubling my effective camera speed was remarkable. <br/" <br/" <br/" <br/"About 3 years ago we bought the newest, high-end Canon digital camera and it allowed us to shoot at ISO 400 with good results. A whole world of magic opened up to my productions with that much speed. I was suddenly shooting in lower light and getting great results. But I was so tempted to shoot at higher ISO's but when I did the results were tainted, as the camera chip just couldn't handle that low light. <br/" <br/"This shot of Daisy was at ISO 400 and gave me much more light range. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256775929_Daisy.jpg"> <br/" <br/"About eight months ago I bought one of the new Canon 5D's.

In this case perspective is visual. <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256694118_jsh02.jpg"> <br/"--Stephen working Shay or vice versa? <br/" <br/"Then there is the type of perspective that we use here at Digital Desire, the graphical definition <br/" and literal, such as the photographic perspectives of J.

Hope this Daily Word finds you well. It's Tuesday and we're only a few more days away from Halloween! This is probably my favorite holiday just for the sheer fact that it doesn't revolve around gifts, food, or alcohol. It's mostly about being creative, and if you're a girl, showing off your natural assets. :) <br/" <br/"I'm also excited to see how our members like our Zombie pictorial when its released on Oct 31st. I'm not sure if finding the living dead sexy makes you a necrophiliac. If so, I'm guilty as charged. <br/" <br/"If you have any other spooky, whacky ideas for sets like that, please shoot them our way. It's always fun to do something away from the norm.

Seems like a no brainer, but you'd be surprised at how many models turn gay for pay; It makes for luke warm photos at best. <br/" <br/"2)The shoot generally goes smoother when the girls know each other, have worked/played with each other before, and or are friends. <br/" <br/"3)The less I interfere with their good time, the better. It's best to sit back and be the voyeur with a camera. Sure, at times I'll direct the girls into a pose, but from there I tell them to "take off, make these pictures your own". <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256311409_6.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256311423_8.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256311437_7.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256311454_9.jpg"> <br/" <br/"<img src="http://www.digitaldesire.com/members/static/wordimages/1256311465_10.jpg"> <br/" <br/"Nikki flew in from Florida, and Shyla from Texas.
