Even though this was actually the 5th time I shot a nude in the redwoods, this shoot with Kitty Malone was the first time I got to try and do a proper shoot with a proper model (I did one set of quickie impromptu topless photos with Cacia Zoo, but otherwise all the other times I shot were with non-models).
I was able to add to my Treehugger series, though I this time I selected a tree not so much for its girth, but for its character. The so-called "Knotty Lady" is not the biggest tree on that trail by any means, but it always stands out to me as beautiful due to its endless large burls protruding all the way up its trunk (hence the nickname). Each redwood has such a unique look that gives them their own character. I thought the Knotty Lady was good to pair with Kitty since she is a pretty naughty lady herself...
I love the contrast between the sea of green created by the understory of massive sword ferns and the human skin tone of a body or two ( I hope I can come back with more than one model next time!). This forest truly epitomizes the original theme of my nude photography work - that feeling of, as a human, being dwarfed by that grandeur of nature, rather than feeling that humanity is able to contain nature.
