Update
What is going on? Will there be another competition? YES. I am in the process of looking for sponsors. If this all comes together as I envision, the next Naked in the House will take things to a whole other level.

As we get closer to the shoot date of Sunday July 14th, I will be posting some more info on how things work. For this post, I’ll be breaking down how I choose the shooters. Basically, what I am after is the perfect blend of ‘eyes’. To that end, each year will see the following: – at least 2 female photographers – one assistant – one student – one anomaly (whom I already have for this year) – one naked in the house website entrant The remaining slots are filled with established pros, but from as many different disciplines or styles as I think will best gel together.
