Figure Study - Harmonica with Natalia

It was a pleasure to have my classmate Natalia (41) take the plunge and model for my series. We were planning on one of her friends to come to her aid and provide us with a traditional instrument from her homeland. Unfortunately, that did not happened and the only instrument that I had readily available was a harmonica. This did not phase her one bit. As you can obviously can see, I have never had a model come close to having the same length of hair. This was a dream shoot as I did not have to worry about how to pose her to keep from exposing too much.

Natalia is only fifth model that her posed for my series in which I did not have an assistant and she did not bring a moral support buddy. Her confidence and radiance made this shoot spectacular.
