Logistics And Love

It’s not easy getting five people in three different time zones together in one place at one time, even in a virtual world. But today, Maddie, Mandy, Aqua, Jessy and I did it. Four of my sisters and I finally managed to do what we’ve been wanting to do for weeks, if not months. These aren’t nearly all of my sisters, but it’s the most we’ve gotten together, so we grabbed the opportunity to take our photos.

It was a logistical nightmare, but we didn’t stop laughing the entire hour and a half we spent together. Pose props were uncooperative, hair was in armpits, faces and crotches, heads were swiveling and bobbing, avatars were facing the wrong direction, shoes were put on noob feet and taken off again…pure chaos. And pure fun.

I wouldn’t trade these women I call my sisters for the world.

A Gift To My Heart

It’s not often that I have a lot of free time when I’m in Second Life. Aside from my business, I also work at a club. So most of my time is spent either working or doing something to do with work, in one way or another (ok, I guess I qualify shopping as part of work – I need new clothes and poses and props for work..right?). But today my photo shoot was postponed until tomorrow, I’d done my photos for today’s blog – and completed it, and still had time to kill before I had to be at the club to host. My sister, Butter (Abbie to the rest of the world) IM’d me and told me she was house hunting. We chatted in IM for a while, then she invited me over.

We ended up putting up a house I had in my inventory for her. It’s “girlier” than her previous homes, but she liked it. And she blamed me for turning her into more of a girl – achievement! \o/ And then we just hung out. Talking and giggling, like sisters do.

It was a great day. I didn’t realise how much I missed just playing in SL. There’s more to it than work, for sure. And thank you, Butter, for reminding me ♥

It’s A Kn0ck0ut!

Well, it’s been a while since you’ve seen a post about my family! A while back, I did photos for my sister, Mandy. I was going to do photos for her husband, Knox (Kn0ck0ut), but with our crazy schedules, I just got the opportunity to do them yesterday.

Knox has a great avatar. His skin and shape just lend themselves to photos. I truly enjoyed adjusting lighting and angles to capture his masculinity. And there was never any doubt in my mind it would come through in his photos.

I’ve decided to do a gallery so you can see more of his photos without this post being a mile long. You can click the photos for a larger version.

Like I told Knox, doing guys is hard. Erm…I mean, shooting photos of guys is difficult! But I think he’s a total Kn0ck0ut in these photos, if I do say so myself! 😀
