Rusty Shackelford & Katz Pajamaz
Two days of aerial and figure photography with Rusty Shackelford and Katz Pajamaz
December 19 & Dec 30, 2011
Rusty and I had wanted to shoot together for at least a couple of years, but the timing had never quite lined up. In December of 2011, we finally had the opportunity to get a shoot date scheduled. Rusty's wife, model Katz Pajamaz, also wanted to take part, and so we envisioned a day of shooting that would encompass both dual sets and solo sets with each of them - including a rather ambitious dual aerial theme.
In our first day of shooting (December 19), we accomplished the technically challenging 'Bedroom Gymnastics' series, along with a short figure nude set featuring Rusty. But there was much more we wanted to shoot together. Having better-than-usual availability with vacation time over the holidays, the two were eager to return as soon as possible to continue our collaboration. We closed out the year (or nearly enough so) on December 30, with a second shooting session, going more free-form with the aerial work this time, and getting both Kat and Rusty flying in the silks.
We've already discussed ideas for yet another set of artistic concepts, and hopefully 2012 will allow us all to further continue this wonderful new creative relationship.
