Locations...
🕑 Added 2024-06-18 07:30:01 +0000 UTCLocations are always a problem for me, especially from when I can't count on the house in Merate.
Nowadays I'm also prepared to pay for a hotel room, adding to the general budget but, for models like Sugar, that is preoccupied about not showing too much, the hotel room is not ideal.
For her I need to wait for the hot season and place her inside a huge abandoned environment that can share the stage with her.
The abandoned mansion was unfit to use any more.
I now have in mind an abandoned restaurant near my home, on the road I travel every day whilst commuting to work, but I've been detecting some strange movements in the past days, like the gate been left open, so I'm worried about this location not being available on the day of the shooting.
I've also found an incredible church nearby, the door was broken in these days, probably by a casual kick, and you can actually get inside for the first time after many years.
But the church is right on a busy road and anybody can disturb our work.
Not only, but this church is also one of the dirtiest place I've ever seen in my life, with a thick carpet of bird shit covering everything (check the third picture in this post to understand what I mean).
This church would be an incredible backdrop for Sugar, just imagine how her dark skin would contrast with the pale surroundings, but it is really too dirty to give it a go, and it would be suitable only for very few pictures anyway.
In the end I will have to try the restaurant and, if that is not available on the day for any reason, I will have to take Sugar in my own house and garage, that are nearby, something I tried only once before (with Valeria), and was not really happy about the result.
Today's picture was taken in Consonno, which proved itself one of the best outdoor locations, for its variety and vastness, but there are too many people walking around for a shy model like Sugar.
These type of locations are not only a way to save money on the hotel room, but can also offer unique looks to your photos!
As long as they are not full of shit...

Last time was in May 2019, in Merate, in an abandoned house, and a couple of months later on Milan's terrace, if that counts... Unfortunately it is impossible to take her out anywhere nowadays, because her time is far too precious. Fortunately she looks just as beautiful indoors ;)

It is a shame the church is in such terrible shape, as it could have been a splendid location. Certainly you cannot take any of your precious Apples to such a dire place.

When was the last time you shot outdoors with Martina? Not that I care if you bring her to us inside or outside, but I'm just curious.
