BOTH!
A topic prompted by chatting with @apsu. We were talking about him rather having a conversation about nipples than working, and I said I have emerged the two together, best of both worlds!
I model half naked, mostly to my own camera, but sometimes for others too, and then spend hours and hours of working on the pictures. I love it and it's fun, but it's also work.
People like to throw around the quote "Love what you do and never work a day in your life", and I always thought that is complete bullshit. A few days ago I finally saw an alternative ending to the quote "...and all you ever do is work!" I think that makes a lot more sense to me! When you are passionate about something, and it is also your job, you end up doing it a lot more than you would a regular nine to five job. And no matter how much you love what you do, it's still hard work, especially if you always want to learn more and be better, like most creative types do.
I'm sure @kommienezuspadt gets perfectly what I am talking about, doing dark pin up photography, looking at the titties all the time. I bet people say to him that he is living the dream because he gets to hang out and take pictures of beautiful women all day long. While that is true, it's also hard work from setting up the shoot, doing the actual photography, and then post process.
Me being both the model and photographer, I get to experience both sides of the making of the final image. Even when the style of the photography is sexy, you have to be quite analytic and platonic about it all. You have to think of angles, light, framing, styling and all sorts of things and you don't have time to get excited about seeing nipples and ass. I'm sure there are a lot of photographers who get a hard on when they photograph hot girls, and are far too excited to concentrate on the actual photography part. Those are the creepy photographers and I can spot them just by looking at the images they make, because they are not as good as the ones where a person is concentrated in making art, not pornographic images.
I get most pleasure about my own work when I'm finished with the image. I do enjoy photography, modelling, and even doing the self portraits, but it's all work. I do it to tell a story, to create, to pass time, and for the money, it's both business and pleasure for me.
Eve, I so admire you. You’re unique among the women I know in that you do your own photos, post processing and editing, and posting. Your process is like a complete brain exercise...creativity, analysis, artistic and technical details, conveying mood, etc
But then the most amazing part is the selection process and clicking “POST” on your own images. Most of us women have a hard time getting our own egos out the way for self promotion. “It’s too much!” Or “is it good enough?!” our egos usually blather on. Maybe yours does too and you say “shut the fuck up! I like this shot of my ass. Look how cute it is!” and post nonetheless? I don’t get the impression you struggle to overcome internal conflict over all this like some do and I’m thrilled for you and for us public who get to enjoy as a result.
Oh!!! And then you, yourself, fully engage with most all comments! Humor, wit, wicked sarcasm, and at little do you take offense. You’re such a fabulous rarity chica. 🙏🏽😘🙏🏽😘🙌🏽 (That last kiss was on your cute little bum.😉)
Are you trying to make me blush!? ☺️☺️ You give me way too much credit for just doing what I like to do! But you are right, I don't have to struggle with some inner demons who try to make me put clothes on, they all want me to be naked if the weather permits. It's the outer demons who try to make me wear clothes sometimes, but I don't care. I just laugh at the prudes.This all comes so naturally to me, it's not really a big deal.
Oh and the comment section, at it's best, it's like a hobby to try and come up with funny comebacks to both entertain me, and others.
I’m not trying to make you anything! Just speaking my mind and adoring that you can tolerate honesty.
What if she's not joking at all, but is dead serious in all of her comments? ;)
Sush! Don't tell them I'm serious!
😉
I think there is a grain of truth in all of her comments, but she also has a wicked sense of humor
Fabulous comment!
Awesome, love it!!!
Good lord...u are yummy! Awesome pictures.
Also a separate comment, I've always had the dream to become the creepy pervert photographer who wants to see tits and ass.
However the issue is that I've grown too fond of real good photos so I'm trying to learn how to take the perfect photos so it takes all the time from focusing on tits and ass. Sometimes you even need to ask the model to hide them a bit.
The real issue is when the model is not actually modeling for you and you're just trying to get good photos of the model who doesn't know you're taking photos of them - or they just don't care - and you can't really give any advise. This is the moment you can combine the creepiness with your photography.
It really is a hard life when you try to be a true artist!
1st tell me are you girl or boy ??
Hint: the pictures are of me.
Nowadays you can never be too sure.
Small titty problems :(
lmao
What is the most appropriate thing to do?
Say "The size of breasts doesn't matter" or "Small tits is my fetish anyway"?
"I'm more of an ass man anyway!"
It's just as they say:
A good ass can compensate the lack of small tits!
I'm not an ass man, just an ass.
Woooowww tell me u have bf or no ??
I have a gf.
Ur lesbian ?
What, no, GF means George Foreman. Google it.
👊👊👊 and what u do with that george foreman ??
Do you get that annoying pop up too ?
Are you a boy?
Or are you a girl?
It freaks me out at late nights :(
ARE YOU A BOY?
OR ARE YOU A GIRL?
I am an lil handsome and very inteligent boy u can check my dp
I'm not sure what the DP is to you, but in the life I'm living in, it's double penetration.
Dp means display picture or profile picture.....and guys i am making a whale club of whales whos reputatioj above 50 so we can earn huge amount on steem it by voting each other blogs am already in touch with 3 whales i have full proff plan ready are u intrested joining it
Sooo how are the whales profiting from your 0.1 SP?
Hahahah nice question well my work will be to bring atleast 10 whales on 1 platform where we will upvote comment and resteem the blog. ... In this way we can earn huge money
If u see my SP 0.1 that also have look when i joined steem just a week before and now my reputation is 33
Don't worry, that's just our reputation. None of us is a whale. I might be closest one to a whale due to my body size, but our upvotes are tiny - like an average ego is.
I wish I could be touching the whales. Gently with a finger in the butt.
My bro jus think if ur blog is resteem by 10 members who holds good reputation what will be ur value of blog
I'm really glad you can combine the things you enjoy like this. Now I can assume that in 30 years you won't be complaining how you hate your job and you would like to switch, but don't have the guts to try out anything new.
But what if I were?! Dreaming of an easy 9-5 job but being too scared to apply to one!
If the price of STEEM continues to drop and stays low long enough you may have to find a job. Good news is you can get by working part time thanks to Steem.
I don't wanna, no no no! I won't! I refuse!! I will not go back to the kitchen! 😭
I'll be very sorry if it comes to that because I've been vicariously living a life free of drudgery through your posts and enjoying the ride.
Have you ever considered microstocks to monetize your photography? Some amateur photographer who was selling his photos through Shutterstock among other such sites was making about $500 per month on average. He had a portfolio of a few thousand photos. That's nothing to scoff at while not enough to cover more than 25-35% of the average person's living costs in Finland.
Don't worry, I don't think it'll come to that just yet. I'll be fine for a while and believe cryptos pick up soon-ish.
I don't think my images are suited as stock images, and I wouldn't actually want anyone using my images for something really random and out of my control.
A large percentage of your photos are not suited to be stock images but a minority of them are. You have taken many landscape and architectural photos that would make fine stock photos. But if that's not what you want then that's the way it is.
Cryptocurrencies have historically rallied violently and within very short timeframes but have taken their time to correct. I'm afraid we might be in for another year or so of a bear market. But selling for the purpose of buying at the bottom does not strike me as a particularly good idea because the bottoming will only be known after the fact and because a single exceptionally good piece of news can start major FOMO at any time.
You can get an even more awesome job. You can study to be an engineer and work 9-5 office job, using excel and outlook for 8 hours a day.
Don't you mind getting naked in public platform and social media. Do you like it ?

I hate it but my pimp forces me to post these!
#freeeve
Someone has to pay the bills babe.
Fucking feminism, making women have a career when we could be at home painting our nails and watching over the kids when they play outside.
Oh. Does it mean you have any contractual obligation with them.
If you deny then what will they do? Are you in porn industry?

Totally agree, same here, it's both FUN and WORK, and sometimes it shifts a bit in either direction.
