Casting Call :: Fifty Shades of Grey Conceptual Boudoir

Created by Ali Coşkunfrom the Noun Project

So, since Landa and I are doing the Miss Pin-Up of the month … Janine and I have decided to do some more funky, artsy, conceptual and stylized shoots to let our creative side get a work out. We are jumping head first into this by doing a Fifty Shades of Grey inspired conceptual/stylized shoot … yeah, for real.

For those of you who have been living under a rock and don’t know about these books … I’ll be the first to tell you, they’re intense. I could hardly get through the first book. I didn’t know if I wanted to strangle Christian, slap Annastasia, stop reading the book and burn it … or what!? … But I finished it, and HAD to read the sequels (Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed). They are definitely NOT for kids or the weak at heart – they are pretty graphic, and deal with BDSM.

So, yes, we are REALLY going outside our box and doing this shoot … It will be tastefully done, with hints of nudity and the happenings in the books. There will be hints of the “kinky ****ery” that goes on, but it will be mostly illusion-type shots.

Janine and I are looking for two models – a male and a female – to play the parts of Annastasia Steele and Christian Grey. The couple can be married, or individual entries (individual entrants should be prepared to work with a model of the opposite sex – we simply can’t do this shoot without BOTH characters). Married couples are preferred to do this shoot – it would be a fun way to spend the day, that’s for sure! 🙂

 

If you are interested in participating, here are the requirements ::

MUST be 18

– Female :: Brunettes preferred, but any other hair color is acceptable

– Must be absolutely comfortable in front of the camera, including being partially nude – bits and pieces will be covered, but there will be hints and illusions of nudity

– Must be able to act in character

– MUST sign full release. No exceptions.

– MUST be comfortable shooting with a partner (be it your spouse or a model)

– Must be available to shoot the last two weeks of June

 

** This is an UNPAID shoot. We are doing this just for fun, and for our portfolios. As a thank you for participating, the models will receive their images watermarked and web-formatted on CD.  **
