Shooting Bikinis - creative people ideas

[jasonco]

I have an idea for a website that im working with and wanted some input from you guys. I want to get some really contrasting photos of a couple of models I shoot regularly.

Im thinking I would like to put them in places where you wouldnt normally see a girl in a bikini. I am keen to try some new stuff and get some new ideas.

One of the girls suggested sitting on a lawn mower at the council. Im also thinking maybe raking the leaves on the freeway or something along those lines.

I have this great idea for Sarah, where she is eating an ice cream standing at the back of the car in the middle of the street. She is keen as to try that out.

Anyone have any more ideas like that?
Cheers

How about three or four slouching down on a couch, drinking beer, and eating chips and snacks while watching football. Perhaps a score has just been made and some are high fiving, and letting the drinks and chips spill.

Another take would be in the stands watching football live amongst all the other folks all bundled up against the chill air. She's just one of the crowd. No one (but the camera) is looking at her, but watching the game intently.

At the races
At a job interview / in an office
In an airport
At the zoo

Hey Guys,

Thanks heaps for the ideas.. You should see the results in a few weeks. The first of the photos I will post in the next few days (I did some already) so stay tuned. I also have another shoot tomorrow afternoon too. So I will see what I can come up with!

juxtaposition between bikinis and a more formal atmosphere always works

[jasonco]

Yeah im thinking that, bikins and a more formal setting would be great. Something really out of place.

We have the Navy guys onside now too and will be getting some photos on one of the war ships in about a weeks time.

I promise to post some photos when I take them ok! :-)

bikini modles on a navy vessel.......well, all the ideas i'm conjuring up here at the moment are probably a little too Sports Illustrated for what you're looking for....(I don't think that a buxom blonde straddling the massive guns is quite what you're after...).:P

from your original post it sounds like you're after juxtaposition or 'out of place' type images, I can't really come up with any ideas.........just trying to get the girls to look like they're actually working on the boat, like they're part of the crew...i dunno..............

Just out of curiosity, why this particular project?

[jasonco]

Hey Guys,

Its for a calender that I have been commissioned to do and also for a website. Once I get rolling I will post some photos. Unfortunately the weather has not been kind either. So stay tuned and I will post over the next few weeks.

Cheers
Jason
