American River Meet-up 2007
This was one of our first trips with a small group. There was little planning, just letting things happen. This location near Auburn, California, always has at least a few nudists visiting. It's a rare spot on the river where there is actually a beach. You can usually safely be nude on any of the trails in the valley.

On Camera: Katgirl, Umbra, Je Suis, Paul, Tiffany, Tim, Lea  -  Photographers: Nomad, Jon, Tiffany, Tim, Paul  -  Videographers: Nomad

  The people in the group get to know each other. Katgirl does water acrobatics, and general silliness on the small beach.

  What was supposed to be a naturist outing is turning into young women presenting sexy poses for the photographers. They play with wet gauze then start climbing up the rocky terrain.

  Here are some extra photos of just "Je Suis" as she interacts with the environment. She is definitely "posing" expressing her body-freedom.

Nomad's Notes

This day was the first time I brought a video camera. I had orginally imagined this project being primarily about photos but it really does lend itself to moving images. The videos have been edited in a kind of stream-of-reality style, which might be slow moving for some viewers. But I like it because it's almost like being there and experiencing each moment. It's a deliberate move away from flashy snazy "MTV" editing to something that actually requires you to relax, be patient and get into the rhythm of being one with nature. I debated whether or not to add music. I like the videos without music, just natural sound. But I thought maybe they needed something to enhance the mood.
