grin Now, tellme, whats the situation between you two? .n

It's not what you think, though it is kinda up in the air. We have a profecional relationship, but have also become very close friends. In all honesty, I see my self growing old with her, and I know she feels the same, but we haven't persued it because of work, and her mother beeing sick. The good thing is that we interact in a compleetly profecional manner when ever the camara is involved, (She calls me "Mr. Salas", insted of by my first name even...) so it doesn't seem to be a problem, and I don't think it will be. Time will tell I guess. We are boath pationt people, and there will be a time for our feelings after she get's a few more tair sheets in her portfolio. I'm walking a fine line though, because I'm the one that keeps warning people to not get involved with their models... So far we have been able to keep things in prioraty, and I will stop working with her on a comercial level when the situation changes. Right now it is a great gift, because we have complete trust and faith in one another, and an amasing cemestry when I shoot her, some of my cliants have even highered her as a model to work with me because of how natural and "Real" she is when I shhot her, so again, it is definatly working to everyones advantage at the moment. For instance, we have been shooting on location and staying in my mothers house in Puerto Rico, for a cloathing company, and they like the shots of her that I had in my portfolio, so they called her agent and higered her for the shoots. It's been a blast, because it has gotten really bitter in New Hampshire, and neither of us like the cold. -Gabe-

Been following this story for a while, and looks like the writings on the wall! What will be will be. The less thought though, the better...... Such a natural photograph. Real life doesnt get much more real than that.

MEOW! Those are some DAMN FINE looking Eggo waffles on the side of that pic! congrats on all the work you guys are getting done. Hopefully, the work'll end soon eh... eh... nudge nudge wink. perverted ryan

...seems beautiful what you guys have going on there. :o) Wanna sell the movie rights? Uuuu, I can see R. Gere and J. Roberts.. g .n

Antoonio, I think it would be a boring movie... But it's funny you used that referance, because she keeps telling me that I'm spoiling her too much, and she's never had been treated the way I feel she should be, and comes from a simple family. We live among rednecks, simple life farmers, and cows, so there isn't really a large call for or knowlage of tradishinal shivalry or formalities there. I don't think I will ever forget her face when I took her to see beauty and the beast on broadway a few weeks ago, her eyes were filled up, and it just melted me. It was the first time she was ever out in a formal enviornment too, and I must say she was adorible in the little things she didn't know or have a need to know before about black tie protacols, but she is doing very good. I'm also happy that she is taking an intrest in travaling, because she is an inexpirianced but certified diver, and that means I can kidnap her on all of my under water excurtions. Life is good. thanks all, Gabe

...yep, definedly, R. Gere and J. Roberts. We are gonna be rich when Hollywood hears this story. These posts of your makes me happy. There are beautiful things happening in the world. smile .n

Thank you... As I turn bright red. -Gabe-

Just a question and a suggestion. Arn't there couple who have a professional relationship who also have a -er- friendlier one? I'm sure there are several. I'm mean many business partners are also husband and wives. Good luck however this turns out. Bsteph

Bsteph, yes there are, and it acualy hapens alot, but I belive in certain things beeing sacred, and when things go futher than this, I;m not sure that I will be able to keep such an objective eye with her. It already is a bit dificult at times. From my expiriance, it becomes hard to work with some one you know intimatly, when the project is for someone else. The feelings do get involved, and can become quite a distraction. Focuses change as well, and again, in my expiriance, the instincts inadvertantly is turn into making her look as good as posible, which may interfear with the acual target of the project. I also don't think I am good enough a photographer to really do her justace. -Gabe-
