That Bleddy Couch Again

Well that Zebra Print Chaise is beginning to get a reputation of it's own. Most guys who come for pictures these days demand at least one or two shots on it - invariably in the buff; so it's getting to the stage that it has touched more naked gentlemen than I have....OK that may be a slight exaggeration but I am starting to get seriously jealous of it!

And I have spent far too long hiding behind the beauty of others so thought it time to put myself in-front of the lens for a change. I have used myself as 'actor' for numerous conceptual pieces in the past, but that was easy to view objectively as it was a question of whether the image worked & not how 'fit' I myself looked. So it was with no little trepidation that I took myself into the studio last weekend in order to get some quality shots to advertise myself with (on certain social networking sites which I am too shy to mention) and I was moderately happy with the results. Does that make me vain; Does that make me Narcissistic? I really don't believe so - more a question of damage limitation & an attempt to dilute my own feelings of body dysmorphia. But it was rather interesting to see how difficult I actually was to work with as model and it has given me a greater respect for those who agree to or even request a shoot with me.
