NEED NEW PHOTOGRAPHER!

I originally started composing this post a few hours ago - ranting about my insomnia...

(I have to take meds to fall asleep a few nights a week - yes, they are prescribed to me! - I took my meds yesterday and thought they weren't working, so I took a few more - and passed out at my computer...witness my bizarre tags at the bottom of last night's post! ANYWAY, I woke up at 3pm, still in a daze, and attempted to get work done, but fell asleep again! I re-woke at 6pm, naked with my computer on my stomach, hand in a box of triscuits, bottle of now-boiling-hot pineapple juice nearby. Ugh.)

...I took a few shots this morning when I woke up, wearing this yellow thong I've been touting for the past week - 

(first, before I figured out the cam...)

I even recorded a "Good morning/Good evening" video:

(sorry if the quality sucks - I'd prefer to upload on YouTube, but fear flagging - much like whoever decided to "alert" the Photobucket/Flickr about my completely harmless photos!)

These super cute BRIGHT YELLOW PANTIES are, frankly, some of the nicest I've ever offered and I've been DYING to post an auction for them!

But have been pretty screwed in the photography department, with Amaya returning to school, and all.

Imagine my excitement when she came out of her room and suggested we do a photoshoot! 

She took a shower, I took a shower.

She went in her room while I dolled up - 

 

 

Yikes, what a weird expression! My best friend calls that the "I'm not hungry" face!

That time it worked...aside from the central screenshot resembling Norma Desmond.

Back to my (boring) story.

I am now in the living room. Dolled up. On the couch. I've got an amazing idea for a photo shoot.


Amaya fell asleep.


Oh. Good.

WAIT! SHE WOKE UP! 

Let's roll!

Taking matters into my OWN hands!

(well, not literally...except some of the time! Ha!)

As many of you know, the beginning of August marks the beginning of the new school year. I, Kammi, graduated last semester with my always useful art school degree (yeah, made such a difference in my chosen field!). Amaya, my usual photographer, is still a student. 

Good news - Amaya continues to forward her education and therefore, stay in the country (she's Colombian). 

Bad news - Kammi has no one to take photos and thus, has NO orders to fill right now!


Good news - Kammi is learning to take her own photos!

 Bad news - They sort of sucked, at first...

(yes, it's always appealing to look like an alien.)

(I call this series..."Can't Figure Out White Balance")

 

 (And then they got a little better...)

And look at me now!

Bad news...they take forever!

Good news - Kammi accepts tips! (hint...hint...) 

Very, VERY good news! I figured out how to record video!

Kind of bad news - At first, I couldn't get the sound to work...

(still, they're pretty sexy...)

(...and, apparently, take forever to load...)

Best news EVER - I finally got the sound to work!

(No, there's nothing wrong with your compter - I'm whispering)

...and FINALLY, figured out how to edit them in MovieMaker to, say, remove that weird part at the end where I look like a frog, leaving me with a short vid which is quite darling, if I may be so bold...

Now, don't get it in your head (either of them!) that this is an opportunity to go completely wild and start sending me custom vid requests...I'm not comfortable with the whole world watching me cum...I don't mind nude photography and I'm quickly warming up to rolling around nude or scantly-clad. But, despite what my roommates may tell you about my "screaming like a banshee" during intercourse," I can get a little shy about it - even with my own boyfriend!


Regardless, it opens a whole new era!


And I'm about to sleep through it - dozing off at the keyboard, right now!


Up to come:
- Kammi needs help deciding what to sell next!
- A slideshow of items coming in the "not-to-distant future"
- A menagerie of "lost loves," i.e. everything you missed out on!

- A focus on my favorite panty/sock sellers
- An extended dissertation on the unfair stigma of panty-buying

And, I hate grubbing for extra um..."tithes," but if you really love the work I'm doing - tips or gifts are much appreciated (and I'm always happy to show my gratitude)! As previously stated, I usually hate the idea of just asking for stuff, but I put such dedication into panty-packages/auction listings/blog posts that it really can be considered a tip in the literal sense! I'll explain further when I'm not falling asleep over my keyboard


Talk to you soon,

Kammi

So many panties, so little time!

I guess my plan to devote the day to panty-selling didn't work out so well. 

I mean, I got plenty done - but never got around to the three blog posts I'd been planning! I hadn't factored in the "preparing packages" factor and how much time it takes. I've mentioned this before, but I really, really devote a lot of work to putting together individual panty shipments. Not just preparing the panties themselves - I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to making sure they're absolutely perfect and often re-wash them multiple times if I think they're not at their ideal state when sent. I also devote significant effort to making the package itself extra special...particularly if I've been chatting with the buyer and feel like I'm getting to know them! 

When I was in college, my mother used to send my "care packages," including photos, little trickets, and special notes. I want to impart that exact experience. I know some people are a little shy (or even ashamed) about having a particular fetish, and I really want them to know that someone (me) thinks there's nothing wrong with having a fetish - I want them to feel special...because they are!

Leading me to the subject...

I had planned on a few things for the blog tonight - 

1.) I wanted to put my "stats" (Playboy-style) up, which I did do, though I intended to add a bit more about my likes (ostriches, sea-foam green, foods intended for children), dislikes (screeching motorcycles, eggs, people who are rude to waiters), favorite people (Tennessee Williams, David Byrne, Harvey Milk), etc. etc. etc.

2.) I was hoping for two new slideshows - one of "lost loves," i.e.panties that are long gone... 

...and another for future items to come...

(that's an amazing sheer black lace bodysuit!)

Not to mention, two more blog posts. For the first, I was planning on soliciting the public opinion of what I should focus on next...with a bevy of photos! For the second, I'm like to give something of a dissertation on men (and women) who buy panties. Even though I'm still a newbie, I'd like to dispel a few myths!

But I'm falling asleep right now.

And I forgot something - it's the 7th year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. I do have a few, old photos from when I lived in New Orleans, but rather not post them (reverse image search)! But I would like anyone reading my blog to saying a unanimous "thank you" to the people of New Orleans (not just Kammi's family)! 

So, I'd like to dedicate these webcam photos to the Crescent City - for their tenacity, their persistence against all odds, and their god-damn SEXINESS!

 

 

 I love you, NOLA!

 

A day (well...night) devoted to panties!

I don't know if I've mentioned it before, but I have horrific insomnia. If you (whoever you are) check the times on various emails/blog posts I write, they're always at odd hours - either late night or early morning. And when they're early morning, it's usually because I haven't gone to bed, yet!

I feel like kind of a jerk, because I prepped a ton of orders over the weekend and was all set to march to the post office today and ship them out. 

And then I slept til 6pm.

Which means I won't feel tired until mid-day tomorrow. Great. 

Luckily, anyone following my ebanned auctions or blog should be secure in the knowledge that I'm working tirelessly (pun intended) on various panty-related projects, tonight. I've already made a "to-do" list and this is the first of three planned blog posts. 


First, my current ebanned auction for the black thong I was hesitant about listing has gone THROUGH THE ROOF! It's currently at over $70 - my highest price ever! I just updated the auction with some sweet add-ons as incentives. Oh, before I forget - 


I use Flickr Pro as a photo host because I like them in general and they're good about hosting "adult" images. They actually allow pretty much any sort of nudity (unlike photobucket, my arch nemesis), with the only caveat being that full-frontals need to be "restricted" and not given a url/html link. They specifically state "no pubic hair," which makes me wonder what would happen if I shaved it! 


Anyway, here are the nudes I posted on ebanned earlier, without the photoshopped "star" cover-up:

This last one, I know, makes no sense. I CANNOT for the LIFE OF ME get it to rotate! I tried to alter and re-save it, but it continues to return to it's bizarre original state. I don't know...but here's an extra to make up for it. I didn't put it on ebanned because I'm convinced I look fat at that angle, but it's a pretty good shot of the black panties being currently auctioned - 

After being awake 7-8 hours, I always get a period of sleepiness which must be overcome! Must...work...despite all odds! 


I'm at a terrible disadvantage right now...Amaya is really hung over and has been sick in bed all day. She won't take photographs unless she's "in the zone," and it's not like I'm paying her, so I've been trying to find a viable way to take quality photos when she's unavailable. Thus, my webcam attempts - this is what I look like right now - 

Why someone in the business of looking sexy would appear on her sexy sex site in her (unsexy) boyfriend's (unsexy) oversized t-shirt without her hair messed-up (also unsexy), un(sexy)showered I don't know. 


But I just did it!


I also wanted to try my hand at taking full-body shots of myself with panties on. For some reason, if you bring a camera into my apartment, the white balance immediately sabotages itself and everything appears sepia-esque. If that weren't the case, these would be quite nice, I think - 

Those are the bikini-print panties I was raving about last week that were sold to a totally awesome guy! It's kind of tough to get my whole body in the frame, but I managed a few times - 

Ok, maybe not so much that time...

 

Does anybody reading this have Comcast for their internet connection and find it STUNNINGLY slow and erratic?

 

That's it!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! How am I supposed to devote the rest of the night to selling panties when my internet is so slow that I can TYPE FASTER THAN IT! 


Need. New. Broadband. Can't. Afford. It.


I have a donation button. Serve and ye shall be served, alike.

New Webcam...wait for it....wait for it....

I try to keep up with my blog/auctions/emailed correspondences and am usually quick with updates and responses. But, lately, I've been M.I.A. 

I don't like complaining, but I've been dealing with personal family problems. I apologize for being out of touch!

On a positive note, I do have a new webcam! I'm hoping to master it and be able to take my own photos without waiting on Amaya to be available. I'm still working out the kinks and learning to use it, but the photos seem to be high quality.

 

Well, high quality for a webcam!

Anyway, I've been severely distressed for the past few days, but I'm not the type of girl to get dragged under and will be back tomorrow (or later tonight!) with photos, musings, and my usual charm!

See you soon!
