Just did a quick look through some of my online white background sex worker images for possible selection to the Scott Edwards Gallery show, so far I have 37 negs for 10 spots. Gosh I have many possibles that are not even online, heck I even have film thats not developed from the 2012 sessions. This should be a very interesting cutting down process!
I wonder if I should do all nude portraits? Should I include head shots? Should I include clothed portraits? Should I just make selections that show the workers vulnerability? Should I choose negs that show strong and independent personalities? Should I do a combination of strong and vulnerable?
Lots to think about here. I want the pictures to work together on more than one level, maybe I need to do a combination of strong and vulnerable.
I found these four images shot in different years of Bla and Long. I think the poses and facial expressions show Bla's strength and Long's vulnerability.

I need to think more about what story I want to tell with this small New Orleans exhibition but for now I better get back to printing my "The Train Is Coming Show", the deadline for the print drop off is quickly approaching.
