Some 'Precious' News

Image
Precious expressed an interest to return to Soles of Silk. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. A couple of weeks ago while I was at work I was payed a visit by a friend and one of the site's sole mates. That sole mate was  Precious . Precious hasn't posed for the site since 2006. As with some others, some things in life came first and we weren't able to get together to do photos. Couple that with us losing touch for a bit of time and here it is three years later and I'm having a chat with her. During my conversation with Precious she informed me that she is willing and able to do some "foot stuff" again for the site. I smiled at the term "stuff" and told her that I was glad to hear that. Since it was a busy day at work, I didn't really get to chat with her too much, but I gave her my cell number and made sure I had her number in my cell. Since t

Mindee - Footography

Mindee has been modeling for quite a few new sets, which makes me quite happy! The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. It's time to take a special look at another one of the site's sole mates. This time around, Mindee is up to bat with her size 8 feet. I've known Mindee for a number of years now. We met when she began working with me. Right away I thought she was a real sweet girl and we hit it off as friends. At the time I was not running Soles of Silk. A few years later, however, I was laying out my plans to do so and was thinking of girls that I knew who I could ask to pose. Mindee was one of those friends. Initially Mindee was reluctant to pose, claiming that her feet were ugly. Now I knew that she was either pulling my leg or she just didn't think of her feet in the way that someone like you or myself would. I had seen her feet and knew that her feet certainly were

Closing the Soles of Silk MySpace

The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Over the weekend I closed the Soles of Silk MySpace page. I made an announcement on the forum over on Wu's Feet Links , but I wanted to make a statement here as well. When I first made the Soles of Silk MySpace page I really liked the interaction that it brought. Over its course, however, I will admit that I was liking it less and less for a number of reasons. Here are the main reasons why: About a year ago Carmen called me all upset because she had gotten an email from someone on MySpace that was included pretty much every curse word made and said that the person sending it was going to find her. Now Carmen never made a MySpace page for her foot modeling. This person was able to find her personal one and it understandably scared her. She did all the things like blocking the person and I even took her off my own friends list in case they found

Random Thoughts - August 2009

Cierra and I shot on one of the hottest days that I can remember to do this football set. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Man was it flippin' hot out this weekend! I found this out the hard way when Cierra and I took a trip downtown to do this year's Ravens themed set for the site. Now, before I have to hear about how you're team's better, just look above and think about Cierra's feet stuck in a pair of Converse All Stars and socks on a day that reached 97 degrees. Furthermore, we all know how much her feet can sweat when it's cold outside, let alone just under 100 degrees. Now who's really thinking about sweaty guys playing sports? So, what's on the horizon for Soles of Silk? Well, this week was supposed to have a new model shown in the coming soon previews, but with Monday actually being hotter than it was on Cierra's shoot on Sunday, we dec

Sweating with Cierra

The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. After a cancelled set of photo shoot dates over the weekend I finally caught up with Cierra . We were supposed to get together Saturday night and do several sets and then again Sunday morning for a special themed one. She wasn't able to meet on Saturday and the forecast was calling for rain and storms all day on Sunday, so I said we will just find another day for that too. I talked to Cierra on Sunday and joked about how the rain only lasted through the morning when it was supposed to be an all day thing. She said that if I wanted to shoot Tuesday night, she was open and that if we wanted to, the upcoming Sunday she was available to do the other set too. I agreed and spent several hours tonight with one of the site's most popular models... and see her feet do their trademark sweating. Cierra's soles were soaked in sweat from the moment w
