I love mature models
Meaning no disrespect to the young and perfect, I just find mature models have some indefinable quality that comes with age. And a few blemishes are just a sign of a life lived. They enhance not detract from their beauty. But then, as I have ranted on about before, I like to photograph real people - even if they are models.I've worked with a lot of actors over the years and come to the conclusion that not many can actually act. If actors can't act I don't expect models to be able to and often when they try we get those horrible pouty expressions or oh I'm so surprised looks that litter many a portfolio.
So, I never like to pre-arrange too much on a first shoot with a new model. I like to wait until we meet and then work out what works with them. And that's where older models score for me. There's just more "them" to draw on. And I don't mean size wise either.
This is the delightful Georgie. I will be working with her next week and helping her set up her own web site. Georgie is living proof - if you were dumb enough to need it - that older women are beautiful and sexy.
