Dear Sophie

Oh how I miss thee. How long has it been? 2 months? Maybe more? There isn't a day that goes by, that I do not think about placing myself atop of your slender frame. I had a dream recently where I wrapped my hands around your supple appendages and squeezed gently with delight as we both savored the sensation of the wind blowing over our bodies. I still see you from time to time, stroking and fingering your parts in anticipation for the next time we shall be united as one, however, the tease of the moment is often too much for me to bear. I wish I bought us protection, like fenders, so I can still ride you in the mess of winter without worrying about you staining my pants with your discharges. Our time will come soon my love.


Patiently yours,

stv


PS. I have enclosed some erotic photos that we took during the summer. The sight of them always gets my heart racing.

Wednesday Winter Randomness

I don't know what it is about winter, but it usually puts me into a creative rut. There never seems to be anything good to shoot; the colours that were once so vibrant are now dull and monochromed. Winter is a serious challenge for me. However, while my surroundings may be plain, it's always good to look at things in a new perspective and use the low contrast and colour saturation to your advantage.

Win V. x Che Guevara

Our friend Winifrey was really choked about his International Study Program to Cuba being cancelled for December. It just so happened that I randomly got him for our Secret Santa gift exchange, so I decided to make him a poster. Some of you were curious about how I made it, so here is how the project progressed:

First, while in a Cuban souvenir shop, I asked Win to try on the hat and pose with an air of resiliency. I didn't shoot this photo with the intention of making this poster, it just worked out that way.


Second, I played around with the levels, curves and contrast in Photoshop CS4.


Third, I converted the above photo to look similar to the iconic Che Guevara t-shirt print.


Finally, I inserted an image of the Che print found on google, beside my image. I felt that adding my friends hero to the image was a good touch.

Luke's 25th Birthday: Part IV of IV

After a night of partying, we jumped into cabs and headed back to the Banff Springs Hotel. We were planning on walking around the hotel in our pj's, hoping to catch site of some of the alleged ghosts which haunt the hallowed halls. Unfortunately, majority of the seekers of the paranormal couldn't resist the temptation of their beds.

The following day started really slowly. As most things don't go as planned with our group, we woke up too late to go to the pool and had to go off site for breakfast. Fortunately, we came back to the Springs to explore the legendary hotel, which gave me the opportunity to shoot some really great shots.

So concludes the series documenting Luke's incredible 25th birthday. Hope you had as much fun viewing the pictures as I had taking them. Have an ill weekend, loves.

Luke's 25th Birthday: Part II of IV

Following dinner, we headed up to one of the hotel rooms to have some amazing cake and pop some bottles of champagne. Chloe took most of the shots in the room, since I was busy getting sloppy.







After we were all good and toasty, we loaded up into cabs and went to Aurora Nightclub, where mayhem ensued. Borrowing some inspiration from local party photographer Lazerfangz, I played with the available light in the club to create the effect of movement and excitement.
