Soles of Silk Blog

Autumn is Soles of Silk's newest model. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Okay, so I am bored and I wanted to write a column that is both pointless, but a fun read at the same time. Pretty much everything you will read you can figure out on your own, but I've taken the liberty of doing the research, the calculations and above all, the time to write it down for everyone to read. With that said, here are some fun sole mate facts*: Number of Sole Mates : 35 Largest Shoe Size : 11,  Molly Smallest Shoe Size : 4, Cierra Average Shoe Size : 7 (6.98 to be exact) First to Pose for Site (photos) : Madison First to Pose for Site (videos) : Abby Newest Sole Mate : Autumn Most Photos on Site : 1st - Madison (796), 2nd - Kellie (661), 3rd - Kimmie (597), 4th - Layla (551) Most Galleries on Site : 1st - Madison (15), 2nd - Kellie (11), 3rd - Kimmie (10), 4th (tied) - ...

The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Last week I was working on a new addition to Soles of Silk. You won't find this addition on the site, but rather on another popular site, MySpace . It seems like anyone and everyone has a MySpace now. And to think I made one a little more than a year ago when I was dating a girl who told me how great the site was. I think my MySpace sat there for a year without a single picture or bit of information placed on it. Still, I had people wanting to be my friend. In the here and now all my friends and people I've met online are making their own MySpace pages, some with killer designs and others, well... I won't get into those. It only seemed logical to make the move to have Soles of Silk on MySpace with its immense popularity. I've went and posted a handful of photos on the page as well as giving it a unique Soles of Silk color scheme with g...

I hope you enjoyed the Christmas update featuring Molly, Bethany, Lauryn, and Madison. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Happy New Year everyone. I hope you all had a great holiday and enjoyed the Christmas 2006 feature set with Madison , Molly ,  Lauryn and Bethany . I saw a few people using the Christmas avatars too. Glad you liked them. The Christmas set marked the return of a model who hadn't had an update in a long time - Lauryn. She was next to impossible to chase down, but told me she will try her hardest to do some more sets with me soon. This brings me to another model who hasn't been seen on the site in some time - Carmen .  Carmen came home from being out of state a couple of months ago, but life has not allowed for a photo shoot yet. That, however, will not be the case much longer. I have made plans with Carmen to do the site's two year anniversary p...

Lisa Tyler is someone I am so glad I met and had the chance to shoot. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Before I had even posted Soles of Silk online I had to get a bunch of photos in the books to begin the site with. I had photographed a handful of models and one of those was Lisa Tyler . Lisa used to run the site Forever Feet and I admired her and her feet when I saw a feature model set she did on Wu's Feet Links . I contacted her and found that she was willing to model for Soles of Silk, even though I had nothing to show for the site online at the time. Now as most of you know, Soles of Silk combines the girl next door who has never modeled in her life, with the girl who models for a living, with those who even run their own foot fetish sites. But at the time I had very little experience working with someone who was used to doing modeling as a job. I was intimidated to say ...

I always loved how flexible Andrea's toes were, and just how wrinkled those soles got. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. As many of you know, years ago I had another foot photo web site called The 10 Little Piggies. I had more than 40 models on the site and also displayed my artwork on the female foot. One of those 40 models is making her Soles of Silk debut this week. That model is Andrea . Andrea and I grew up as next door neighbors. We used to play He-Man/She-Ra way back in our youth. As we grew up we still hung out here and there, but we did grow apart slightly. When I was in college and running The 10 Little Piggies, I was always asking my classmates and friends to pose for me. I had always wanted to ask Andrea, but wasn't sure how she would react. On one summer afternoon she was outside washing her father's truck, I believe, and I went for broke. I was a little ne...

Carmen will be back doing new sets soon. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Maybe you saw some of my forum posts on the site forum lately or talked to me on instant messenger. But for those of you who haven't done either, there is some recent news that is sure to make a lot of people happy. The news is: Carmen has come home! Carmen moved months ago and I was not able to meet with her before she left to get in some photo shoots. I have had a ton of e-mails asking if Carmen was still modeling for the site and I had to explain the situation. People were a little bummed to say the least because Carmen has been one of the most popular models since she debuted on the site. And when she was the feature on Wu's Feet Links her popularity went through the roof! To date I've exchanged a number of e-mails with Carmen about some ideas I have for some sets I want to do with her. I a...

I'm so happy to have Sara Swirls back on the site this week. It's been too long! The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. It seems like the weather lately can't make up its mind on whether it wants to be cold or warm. Some days I've walked out in a jacket and then I go and get a little bit of a sun burn on my neck at the beach yesterday. Crazy stuff. But one thing is inevitable, the weather is going to get cold here in Maryland before long and that means I lose a lot of photo opportunities outdoors. So right now I am cramming in as many models, new and existing, before the winter sets in. This week marks a return of Sara Swirls , who hasn't had a gallery update in some time. I was able to meet with her recently and get a few sets in. It was great to have her back and those size 8's are still as tender as ever! Next week is the debut of Andrea , my former next door ne...

Layla's debut set was an instant hit with both fans and members. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Back in June I did an All- Madison featured update. This month I have decided to do the same with another regular model here on Soles of Silk. That model is Layla . Layla quickly became a hit on this site when I posted her first set on the site, which was her Fells Point Tugboat Set. Her dirty feet being bared in a public place drove people insane and people demanded more of her. I had shot three sets that day, but with her demand and my enjoyment in shooting her caused me to meet up with her several more times to get more sets in, each time getting some awesome shots. With all of her great shoots, it was getting hard to pick which ones to post first having so many in waiting and having to stick them in between updates with new and other models. Here is a look at Layla's Footog...

Wendy and I had someone observing our shoots for most of the afternoon. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. This week had one of the strangest things that has ever happened to me while I was out doing a photo shoot for Soles of Silk. I was meeting up with Wendy this past Sunday to take some more photos and her boyfriend had suggested a local park for a possible location for its nice scenery. Wendy and I took the advice and headed out to the park. Once we parked we began walking a trail back to a small waterfall that she though would be perfect for her first set. Well, on the way back to the waterfall I look up and see a wooden spear with colorful feathers and what looked to be a squirrel's tail attached to it. Then I noticed the person holding it. A white male with a feathered headband, rawhide vest, blue jeans and tennis shoes was standing there as if he were almost monitoring...

My two day trip started with doing several photo shoots of Molly and her size 11 feet. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. As you read last week, this week I went to the beach for several days and got to spend time and do photographs with the ever-so-popular Molly . We had an awesome place to shoot and we also ran out onto the beach for a few shoots as well. You'll be seeing some of those photos soon. But I had an unexpected bonus to the two day photo trip. Molly had mentioned shooting a friend of her's named Bethany .  "Bethany is shy," Molly told me beforehand so I didn't know if that meant she probably wouldn't do it. Well, the first night Molly had called and asked Bethany to come over and hang out with us in the hot tub. Bethany took her up on the offer and when she came by, I prayed Bethany would agree to pose for the site someday. Little would I kn...
