She wanted to take a self portrait of herself. Nude. No... more than nude. She wanted it to be provocative. She wanted it to be erotic to the mind, not just the eye. Any woman could strip naked, lay back on a bed, and spread. She wanted more.
She'd always liked Nabokov's novel Lolita, which she'd read in high school. That had been more than a decade ago. In fact, she was closer to 30 than 15. She wanted to evoke that again, in how she saw and felt about herself. So she set up a pink photography background, tied her hair in pig tails, and before she set up the camera on the tripod, she shaved herself bare.
