Remember when I posted about the bubble bath photo session that resulted from my insistence on hamming it up in front if [livejournal.com profile] mechanchaos with a digital camera? I finally got around to picking my favorites, cropping them, resizing them, and uploading them. They are now here if you feel like perusing them and are not afraid of a few industrial-grade breasts. You might not want to open them at work though, since the only clothing involved are bubbles.

For the most part the pics are tasteful and playful, I think. Doing this was a challenge for me, since I am so self-conscious about my body. Maybe if I can make friends with my body at this size, I can get less hung up about weight issues and body image in general.

So, finally I have a set of pics I think go well with [livejournal.com profile] thenowhere's request (a while back, I realize...) for honest images of one's self.

I would love to do this sometime...need to get up the courage. It looked like you two had a blast *pop!* doing this :)

I think what helped in my case was just playing with it. I tried not to care whether any pictures turned out. Funny how more turn out well that way...

Speaking as someone who has several hundred megs of pics of varying dirtiness, it's quite liberating not only to take those pictures - but to have other (trusted) people enjoy them!

This was my first experience having a lover taking fun pics like that... Definitely not the same experience as having a friend take nudie pics for a figure drawing class. It was indeed liberating, and it feels remarkably neat to have them posted. :)

OMG thats awesome

that is soo kool. I don't know much of anyone willing to dive off the cliff and post something like that. I'm totally impressed. not only are they fun, great pics, but if shows off your still gutsy bold and willing to let the world know it.

It's def different then shots for a nude by another artist. ultimately when the artist is done a certain amount of "you" will go away and that's a safe feeling.. unless they're a total realist i guess.. hehe. or maybe if they're just really really good... but still...

Ye look great luv. I'm glad you're this proud of yourself and how you look. Def progress and loads of fun doin it!!!

I wouldn't have thought I'd post something like these until we took the photos. I had so much fun having the pics taken that I knew I wanted to share at least some of them. Today's session with photoshop (just to crop and resize... no trimming down my wider bits) showed me just how many I liked enough to put out there.

Overall it was tons of fun, and a hefty reminder that I don't have to be a size super-skinny to like how I look in pics. Glad to share. :)

*GASPS* OH MY GOD! How dare you post that filthy smut on the internet without charging money to see it! How DARE you impede the capitalist system!

... Nah I'm kidding. xD

Eh, So how you guys doin?

[identity profile] blackfelicula.livejournal.com 2008-01-12 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
***maniacal laughter*** Not only is it smut, but it is MY smut!
Wait a minute...
You mean to say I could have been earning money with that stuff? WAH!

Doing alright... could use more money though (as always). You?

[identity profile] gray-wolf.livejournal.com 2008-01-12 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Amazingly the same, despite the apparent lack of smuttiness that abounds my lj!

[identity profile] blackfelicula.livejournal.com 2008-01-12 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
See, up the smuttiness content, and you up the fun! You ought to try it sometime.

[identity profile] gray-wolf.livejournal.com 2008-01-12 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... That's an idea. But I don't think the Internet is quite ready for yours truly in da buff.... I have this odd fear it may lead to widespread chaos and anarchy.

... Which, wouldn't be so bad really.

[identity profile] blackfelicula.livejournal.com 2008-01-12 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, I didn't wait for the internet to be ready for me sans clothes!

'Sides, a dose of anarchy would do America good, I think.

[identity profile] gray-wolf.livejournal.com 2008-01-12 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed! Agreed! Well back to work. These parts ain't gonna manufacture themselves!

[identity profile] blackfelicula.livejournal.com 2008-01-12 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you manufacturing smutty parts?
