Nikon D3200, a whopping 24 Megapixel sensor

And it comes in Iron Man red.  Running at a reasonable $700, memory card not included, I’d say it’s a good start for anyone who wants to do a beauty service by capturing her essence with technical mastery.  Again, it’s not how technologically advanced the camera is, it’s how the photo is taken.

What’s a white knight? A white knight is a derogatory term used by some photographers to label other photographers for trying too hard to win favor of models whether they are attracted to them or want to “steal” them from a hotshot photographer’s entourage.

The average “white knight” looks like this loser.

What’s a GWC?  A guy with camera, a derogatory term used by some photographers to label other photographers as preverts whose sole purpose for picking up a camera was to photograph naked women.

The average GWC looks like this loser.

Pay attention to how Hollywood casts its leading ladies.  If you’re keen to it, there will always be a string of actors that bear the same looks.

Scarlett Johansson is a beauty.  But she looks a lot like Amber Heard.  However, Amber Heard does nudity and her typecast isn’t usually associated with “Disney Princesses”, in other words, she has the same look but will be used for more explicit depictions of sexuality.  Hollywood uses Scarlett Johansson for these kid-friendly comic book movies while still exploiting her sex appeal.  Get it? Two for one.

And then if you really want to target the tweens, you get Kristen Stewart. That’s how they roll.

I was hesistant. “Should I go there?” The hipsters don’t seem to like furries, but they sure are acknowledgable on the topic. Ah, what the hell.

Neteri doesn’t quite look like Zoe Saldana anymore, but this digital character still carries a lot of sex appeal.  Can you list the traits?

Don’t pick on Taylor Swift.  Cute as a button, but, just don’t…

I’ll let Kayne do it for me.

Grace Jones, angry, savage black woman!

For me personally, I’d be more scared of a woman portrayed like this than be turned on (she literally kicks ass in the movie). But apparently, Grace Jones was the “it” woman at the time of the release of “Conan the Destroyer”.  Again, how does this affect minority women’s own self-image?  Do they want to be seen as a bad-ass warrior princess?  What if it matches her personality?

Here we go, a topic I don’t really want to touch: religion

The Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ.  How many of you want to bet how she’s depicted throughout history affects standards in beauty?  It’s very easy to explain.  I’ll let a Neo-Freudist rant sometime.  Feel free to add your comments.
