The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Wow, it's November already - only a few days away from Thanksgiving. It feels like this year didn't start that long ago. Not sure if it is a sign of me getting older or what, but the time just seems to fly by. With a little over a month left here in 2011 I'm still working on some key items for the site that might be of some interest to you. Well, when I have some free time. Been a little wrapped up over the last few weeks between work and becoming a first time uncle. But back to the matter at hand, below is a breakdown of some of those items - some new, some updated: 2011 Year In Review Contest Every January I post a year in review contest for the site. In it I ask Soles of Silk based trivia questions about things that happened on the site for that particular year. In years past the turn out has been one of the best for any of the contests I...

Ryan wore these shoes, without socks, all day long at school before shooting. Oh so nice! The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. October. What a month it has been as far as the site is concerned. Some of it good, some of it, not so much. As the saying goes, which do you want first? The good news, or the bad news? Oh wait, you can't answer. I guess the good news comes first. Good News Items Alienware Aurora ALX -  The computer I had been running was a custom built, bare bones system that I had built roughly six years ago. I got it to be close to top of the line then, so it wasn't until recently that I determined it was time to start looking for something else. Well, last week marked the first update with the  Alienware Aurora ALX system that I had built and man is this thing FAST! I won't go into all of its specs, but I'm loving this thing. Shoot: Ryan - I recently did a ...

Cierra is Soles of Silk's most photographed model. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. When I used to do some writing for a local newspaper I used to be in charge of the arts/entertainment section. I ran a regular column there also and sometimes it was just hard to come up with a theme, subject, or topic of interest that I thought people would enjoy reading. To be quite honest, sometimes I just talked about what everyone else was - like an awards show or celebrity mishap. Other times I ended up doing a repeat column similar to something I had done in the past. The same holds true here. A couple of days ago I remembered a column I wrote a few years ago where I listed some fun, totally meaningless facts about Soles of Silk and its models. And to be totally honest, that might have been the second time I had run such a column. Well, now it is time to do it yet again. This time I dec...

It's been way too long since I saw these amazing wrinkles. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. This week was a reminder of my early days in my foot photography career. As many of you know, the first ever girl to pose for foot themed photos on a regular basis was my ex-girlfriend,  Abby . On Monday I finally was able to get Abby back in front of the camera. It has been over two years since Abby has posed for the site. She's been quite busy and we just never seemed to match up. Well, we finally made a promise to get together and get some photos in and boy did we ever have some great results. The first set, which the photo above is from, ended up being over the 100 photo mark. Generally I don't do that many photos unless for a holiday or special occasion set. Sometimes, however, a set is just going so well that I want to keep going and take more and more shots. That happened...

It was so nice to have both Charlee's (left) & Jamie's feet planted to my nose. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Cute title, huh? Yeah, I thought it was perfect especially with these two great photos taken by none other than Charlee (top) and  Jamie (bottom), which features both of their feet on my nose. It was taken just before we started shooting their first ever sets together on Monday. The two are good friends and I told them I wanted to get them to pose with each other before summer was over. They both took a day off work and we made the plans. We ended up getting in two sets with both of them together, and then after a short thunderstorm, a set with each of them solo. All in all, it was a very productive day with some great photos. Toward the end of the day, when I was shooting Charlee, Jamie came up behind me and expressed a desire to take a coup...

Jordana and her wrinkled soles have now posed for more than 1,000 photos on the site. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Last week something happened on the site that has only happened to seven other models; going over the 1,000 photo mark. The model who did it is none other than Jordana . Now that she's joined the club, there are eight models on Soles of Silk over that mark, with Kelsey knocking at the door with 907 photos. The list so far is as follows: Cierra - 1,915  Madison - 1,832  Layla - 1,681  Kellie - 1,332  Mindee - 1,209  Kimmie - 1,094  Wendy - 1,054  Jordana - 1,048  Given that list, I can say I'd expect Jordana to move up much higher before the year's end. Jordana has been posing for me on a regular basis over the last year or so. Even though she lives in another state, we try to meet up whenever we can. S...

Ryan has gotten so much amazing feedback on her debut feature set. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. This week's update is coming a day earlier than normal as I headed out of town for the week for a much needed vacation. That being said, I thought I'd take a few minutes and go over a few tidbits of interest before my butt boards a plane. Ryan's Debut Sets I am overly pleased with the feedback I got from Ryan's feature set over at Wu's Feet Links last week. I think we went with the right title for it too playing on Deadliest Catch with Sexiest Catch . The forums lit up with lots of positive comments as did my inbox. Ryan was so excited to see everything you all had to say. This week I am leaving you with even more Ryan as she is making her onsite debut. Between the 83 photo Sexiest Catch feature and this week's Duck Pond set of 96 photos, Ryan sure made quite...

Welcome Ryan, Soles of Silk's newest model and Wu's Feet Links feature. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Okay, I'm excited... Really, really excited. Usually when I shoot a new model I rush to get her added to the site. What I have always done is jumped new models ahead of all other shot content so that they may debut as soon as possible. But there was an exception made recently. And this exception's name is Ryan . At the end of 2010 I was talking to Wu of Wu's Feet Links . For the past several years I have been lucky enough to have a model featured in his site's Feature Model section. Wu has always picked the models, but this year I asked him if I could go with one of my site's newer girls. All the models who appeared in the feature sets in years past are some of the most established models on the site. That list includes: Mindee , Cierra , Madison , K...

The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. You might be asking how someone can debut and return at the same time. Well, the lovely half-Korean, half-white Shae and her size 10 feet are doing just that this week. Let me explain. Years ago, many of you know this story, I ran a couple different free foot sites like this one. It all started with my then girlfriend, Abby . Well, the second girl I shot for those sites was Shae. As a matter of fact, my first two girl shoot was Abby and Shae together. Shae grew up a few doors down from Abby and was one of her best friends when Abby and I dated. When Abby suggested I do photos of Shae all those years ago, I was so excited and so nervous at the same time. Up until that time, my only fetish experiences were with Abby. I was still a little embarrassed about having people know of my fetish, let alone ask them to pose for photos. Since girls talk, just l...

The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Been a little while since I gave some site and photography updates, so I thought now was as good as ever. Katie sent me this picture of her feet from her cellphone . Best Wishes To Katie She posed for just one set. She turned 18 less than a year ago and the only new stuff I've shown of her has been from random cellphone camera shots she has sent me, such as this recent one above. Sadly, this looks like the only way we will see Katie from now on. A few months ago Katie married and a little over a week ago, moved to be with her husband in the military. I wish them the best of luck with everything. That being said, Katie was always fun times when we hung out. At first she seemed a little hesitant about posing for me, but I assured her that she size 9 feet were cute. After posing and seeing the wonderful feedback from all of you, she began to ...
