Lovely Weekend

I had a wonderful relaxing weekend, though I didn't get to do any shooting unfortunately. I was hoping I'd be able to take my springtime toes out for some fresh air. Who would've guessed that my toes would be covered in SNOW? Crazy! It's all melted now, but Saturday there were at least a couple of inches covering everything. I haven't seen snow since...December maybe? It was a big surprise to go from being outside in just a t-shirt, playing tennis to digging for my winter boots so I could take the dogs for a walk.

I'm going to do a little sun dance and pray for good weather this week. Before I need another pedicure!

Dangling My Feet Out the Window

I've been testing out how to get my YouTube videos to retain their quality after uploading (YouTube processes all videos by shrinking them in size, which usually makes them a big ol' mess) and think I've found a happy medium. Check out this little preview of a longer video that will be up in the members area of Barefoot Kristy soon.

I'm pretty new to YouTube, so I would really LOVE it if you'd subscribe to my videos and give this video a good rating. My channel is open to comments too, so let's hear from you! I think you can even do video responses. How cool is that? :)

Shooting Today

I need to shoot some new content today - photos and videos for both my foot fans and for my nude pics site. I'm trying to come up with a plan that includes my ideas and member requests which has me going through outfits and piles of lingerie, matching with shoes and looking around my tiny apartment to figure where I can shoot that I haven't already used a bunch of times before. Then I'll need to do a major clean & try to de-dog everything, move furniture out of the way & set up the lights. Oh, are my batteries charged? For the camera, flash AND the video camera?

I already painted my toes last night, a pretty pale yellow that seems perfectly fitting for the spring weather, but it's almost impossible for me to shoot outside if I plan to get naked. Bare feet? That I can do. Finding a balance between the two sites is really weighing on me today. If I were just shooting sexy feet pics, I'd probably be done already! I've been getting some great ideas from members that I'm really looking forward to shooting.

Unfortunately, the income from this site doesn't even cover my hosting bill, so it looks like I'm still a long way off from being able to focus my time 100% on my feet. Which is fine...I like shooting leg content, hosiery and dressing up too. But on days like today I just feel a little overwhelmed by the whole prospect of doing all of these jobs, wearing all of these hats by myself. I'm the model, the photographer, the photo editor, the webmaster, the tech support, the server administrator and the marketing manager. Oh plus it's tax time, so I'm also the accountant and bookkeeper!

It's days like this that having a 9 to 5 job sounds pretty good!

Beach Feet

Hey guys! I know it's been quiet around here lately, but I think I'm ready to come out of hiding now. My sister and her family were here visiting last week and while it was great to see them all, I find socializing for days at a time really really exhausting. I'm usually stuck behind my computer for a reason - I'm a hermit! I love my sister and we get along great; there was no drama or anything like that at all. But between having no attention span (yes, I'm a poster child for ADD) and years spent typing and reading instead of listening, I find it excruciatingly difficult to try to focus on conversations going on around me.

You know when you're sitting at a table with big group of people and everyone is talking? I can't handle that. My brain is not wired for taking in that much information at one time, from so many different sources. By the end of the evening I feel like I've run a marathon!

So, after I packed the family off I've been selfishly enjoying my space, my quiet. Not surprisingly, it gets lonely! I'm peeking my head back out, posting a new gallery of photos for members, adding new contacts to my Flickr page and replying to the emails that are filling up my inbox.

****************


Note about email: I read all of your emails right away. As soon as I get them, I read them. I just don't always reply to them right away. I tend to keep my mail open as I'm working, so if I get a Big Important Email telling me my server is down or something major, I can react. Otherwise, I read the new ones and think about what I'm going to write back, but I don't actually do the writing back until I sit down with no other work to do and spend a couple of hours replying. It's probably not the best way to do it, but that's my system.

I just want to make sure that you know that every message I get is truly appreciated by me. I love hearing from you & really wish I was more organized and capable of responding quickly. I apologize and hope you understand. And keep writing me! *grin*

Sexy Legs and Feet

I just added a new sexy legs and feet photo gallery for my awesome Barefoot Kristy members (click here to get your membership today). I'm wearing my favorite super slinky sexy stripper pants. I rarely get a chance to go out dancing, but I think these pants with their clingy material and peek-a-boo slits up the leg would look amazing on the dance floor.

Sexy legs on top of sexy feet in platform stilettos? What do you think? Would you buy me a drink? *heehee*




There are a couple more pics on my Flickr page. My username is sexy-feet over there. If you have a Flickr account yourself, don't forget to add me as a contact (or a friend). *smooch*

Sister Time

I'm having a great visit with my sister and her family, so please pardon the quietness 'round these parts. Last night we went to see the Canucks hockey game (and I got some great pics which I'll post later). Tonight we stayed in so I could cook dinner and introduce her to Wii bowling for the first time. Lots of fun, but I really need to put the beer down and get back to work! They're here until Saturday, so I may need to kick them out tomorrow for some alone time. :)
