But.. my art explores the dichotomy of love and violence, the natural beauty of the human body juxtaposed with the utilitarian bluntness of the weapons that destroy it. Not like those other hacks that also post photos of naked chicks with guns.

As a Pentax owner I have long been confused by the way my camera twitches in my hands whenever I am near a half-naked woman holding a gun - this happens more than you might think! Finally, an answer! Thank you!

People keep these things in their jewellery boxes, mount them to the wall and even eat them.

Taking a photo seems positively benign in comparison.

I don't know about the pulsating umbilical cord, but I'll be sure to ask my wife next time she's not on shift.

But "first pictures" are a big part of her job once the baby is out, gotta get a mom who can't wait to sleep, a baby who looks like a corpse, and an oblivious dad all in frame.

I wonder if there is a market for food photography but for umbilical cords/placentae? You know like fancy magazine style food photos but of baby parts on plates surrounded by greens and covered in ranch or however it is that people like to consume them.

You should watch a couple of videos. They're the most awkward model/photographer interactions ever. The girls are chatting fairly normally but their body language is all 'lolnope'. Also not a single one knows how to pose and he has no idea how to direct.

Holy crap that stuff makes me cringe. They are so uncomfortable, and all he's doing is filming their butts by asking them to turn around to "film their rump" and in a few he even tries to (as he puts in the video) "get some downblouse shots," with his camera. What in the holy hell is he doing, there's no art and there's no value in any of that, short of selling it as wannabe porn.

Can only assume he's paying them loads of money for this. His following is surprisingly "large" for the quality and quantity of work, so he must be using that as a selling point as well. Maybe to bargain them down.

In one, he even mentions from behind camera that "she really wants to make this work after seeing my work," as she's awkwardly covering herself to prevent him from seeing her breasts on video. She walks across the floor on her knees just to avoid even turning in his direction. Nothing but the best! THE BEST JERRY, THE BEST. Edit: This explains it all, he is basically making porn. His site linked from his Flickr page, copy pasta: northwestbeauties.com

I've always wondered why it's so tough to find models for artistic nude work with actual quality (arguably)... this guy is a great reason why. Ruining things for everyone.
