Interesting, What is it about the camera? I recall years ago there was a photographer call Ugly George on NYC who strapped cameras and lights onto a shoulder mounted rig and filemd pople who just passed by and sometimes had sex on camera with strangers. I wonder what it is about the camera where some people come alive on camera.

I’m struck by her discomfort in the shopping clip. She doesn’t seem to be having much fun.

I guess you could chalk it up to youth and lack of experience. It is hard to be comfortable in your own skin at 18. It is even more difficult to be at ease with two older (not teenage) people who are sure of themselves and having a great time. There may not have been much common ground.

I have seen the camera work its magic on some of my friends. In particular, I’ve been startled by how one shy friend just comes alive in front of a big shiny SLR. Something about the look of the lens and the sound of the shutter is catnip for her. It’s like she has a hard-wired aspiring fashion model in a corner of her mind.

A remarkably candid–yet somewhat sad—story, I must say. During my student years I befriended a few people in the industry and nearly all of them had similar stories.

How brave you are to open yourself to us!

Does her youth indicate a lack of experience and sexuasl awakening? Perhaps Lena is still in the process of discovering what human sexuality is all about. Keep looking for someone who can fulfill your fantasy.I am sure you will find someone who will show and feel emotion and excitement Life and living it is all about passion. Without it, life can be a bore.

There are times in life when you get in deeper than you counted on getting and I think that was probably the case with Lena. From the looks of the video you took of her shopping she seemed very uncomfortable. I think sometimes when fantasy becomes reality it is either too much to handle or not what one expected. She was probably too young to know what she was in for.

Hi May, thanks for this blog! I was pleased to hear that I’m not the only person who experiences that kind of response. In my life as an artist, I have worked with many females and males who are completely into what we are trying to achieve. Then I’ll end up with someone who seems like they’d be great to work with (going by what they’ve told me) only to have a passionless photoshoot with someone who is totally disengaged. I find it very dispiriting.
Regards, J.B.
