These galleries date back to 2007 when I was experimenting with various approaches to planning a day outing. In this case the idea was to shoot a video about a photographer shooting models at a beach. We met at Limantour Beach (Pt. Reyes park) but it was very windy and chilly. The closest alternative was Hagmier Pond, an inland spot known as a nudist hangout. Luckily it was warm and sunny there. I threw out my beach script and we improvised everything.
I originally was not going to post this set of photos because they predate the clear naturist approach we finally established. But they are part of our history so I thought I should just get them out there.
