In the early years of the 21st century, I re-started Raging Sensations with the thought of shooting poster work, not calendar work, this time around. I also wanted to incorporate images of antique fire trucks into my poster work as well, whenever possible and utilized my many contacts in the fire service to locate trucks that I could photograph with models. Many of the trucks I photographed back in those days were privately owned and maintained, many of them maintained and preserved very well by the owners.

In January of 2011, I had the pleasure of working with a gorgeous young lady named Miss Lea that has become a good friend and great model who has returned to work with me several times since that first shoot. When you have worked with as many models as I have in a thirty plus year time period, there are always a few models that stand out in your mind, mainly based on virtues of not only beauty, but also, and sometimes even more importantly, virtues of reliability, dependability, honesty, trustworthiness, integrity, and just plain knowing their craft well.

Miss Lea is one of those rare models that comes along just once in a while, she encompasses all of the important virtues in my book and is a natural model, flirt, and great country gal, too. Each and every time that I had the pleasure of working with her, I had a great time photographing her no matter where we were shooting at or what we were shooting, and she has a great personality to go along with a very hott look and bod. Soon after shooting her in January of 2011, she contacted me again, asked if I could possibly come to her state to photograph her the next time around, and fortunately for her, I happen to have a good friend not far from her that has a garage full of pretty fire trucks, and other apparatus like hose carts and equipment related to the fire service in general. 

He allows me to shoot models utilizing his collections whenever I have a model available to do so…such as I did when Lea contacted me about a month after her initial session with me in January….and let me know she had some free time coming up and could I come over to her state and shoot with her…..so I contacted my buddy and he said sure, no problem…here are a few images from her test shoot first…. 

…and here are some images of that shoot with the pretty firetrucks…
