Dear friends, this is a actually a reply to a friend who left a comment in this pic, and I posted it in my journal as well, I think it's necessary for me to post it here as I really want everyone to read it if possible, so here we go.
75% of the girls I shot are my house mate as I am renting some of my rooms to visiting models, I know their eating habit, most of them eat normal, some eat like a pig and yet they don't even put on an ounce!! A lot of people I think are influenced by the news about models starved to death recently but let's face it, some people just born skinny and will never put on weight, and please skinny not necessary unhealthy. I was quite angry with people who commented negatively about some of my pics, I totally ok when they say I'm bad photographer, or even things like I don't deserve to be photographer but why call skinny models bad model when they work as hard as anybody else,they didn't offend anyone. 1 particular picture I didn't even bother to reply which is the underwater 1, nobody has an idea how much the models suffered for this shoot. The pay for this shoot is so low, disgusting even, yet they did it cause they knew not many people have this kind of opportunity, they even said they will do it for free. Seriously I would have collapsed if I were them. Many people judge model these days because of some bad seed, I don't deny that. Many model are going to lose their job in Spain and now Italy because they implemented the law not to allow skinny model to work. For those who are very unhealthy skinny I agree with this law but they just have to check carefully. Some models depends on this money, they are the only one making money in they family, some from a single parent and 4 siblings kind of family, they only see their family once in 2 years as the ticket is just too expensive to fly back to Brazil. They started modeling at 14 when they suppose to be in school, but if they go to school their little brother and sister wouldn't have a chance! This story been repeating all the time yet people care only how skinny they are, very sad. Oh 1 more thing, model look dead cause they look pale!!!??? Hello, does anyone not look pale underwater, this is science, when you cold your blood circulate lesser to the skin and there are some bluish tint underwater, simple as that. Anyway thanks for pointing out for me and in the way encourage me to write this.
still I really like this photo How did you manage to shoot this photo. a camera that has a thing around the body that resists water? (sorry; don't know the words)
