OK, so I photographed this really cute blonde last summer, and she was as sweet and cool as they come, with a great body and a very pretty face, but almost a year later, I have still to post her pictures on Feet Fair.
Why? you might ask. Well, when she got to the studio, I noticed that her second toes are not only longer than average, but they twist down in a bizzare way.
Maybe I'm too much of a perfectionist, but I have what would be considered three really good sets of her, save for those funky toes, and I just haven't been able to bring myself to post them.
I keep hearing from her from time to time, and the last time being yesterday, and she's begining to question whether I like her, or she thinks she might have offended me in some way.
The truth is that she's a perfectly mannered yound lady, just the type I really appreciate, but I don't want to hurt her feelings, so I just told her that I really blew the lighting, and that the pics are not up to my standards, which would be easy to get away with, except that she has seen some of the non feet ones, and really gave me a lot of praise for them.
I'm attaching some pics, with het toes circled, and I pixelated her face to protect her privacy, but now I'm thinking that maybe I'm just too darn picky. I would really appreciate any feedback I can get on this, positive, or otherwise.

I tend to be a perfectionist as well, so as a host of a site that I have been a member of in the past I appreciate that from you. While I would agree that those particular pics don't much for me personally as I am a clean, pedicured, no calluses soles guy. I know that there are fans of feet like her's out there that would enjoy them. It would also add some diversity to your site. Now if she were to get them cleaned up a bit...........I'd be in for sure!!

They may just be pics taken at funky angles. Do you have any straight up top shots? And for the record, more intense on the pixelation if you actually want to hide her face, its still very clear.

I'm liking the soles...but i do agree, to toe is awkward...however, Photoshop is a wonderful thing to use. I don't think it would be wrong to fix that problem.

I thought about doing the PhotoShop thing, but that's a lot of work if you want to do it right, and it's just not worth it to me.
As for different angles, I have some others, where the toes aren't that noticeable, but there just aren't that many of them AND, it also restricts the sets to maybe 10-12 passable images, and that doesn't work at all.

She should have had the sence to show up with a pedicure though! LOL
Thank you, but a pedicure wouldn't help her, she would need surgery to cerrect that condition, and since she's not invested in being a foot model, I don't think that will ever hapeen. Maybe she would work for some other guys, but I have my standards, and I like to stick to them.

I'd like to see a toe spread...see what were working with here. From these pics I dont see anything wrong other then a shitty polish job...

I say HELL NO! That is probably the ultimate TURN OFF for me. A girl has or is near perfection and then you see something like that. I'll pass on seeing her. It kills the deal.

Stop wasting your time reading a ton of comments. Long story short - just post the pics dude. There are two things in life you can always be sure of:
1. You will never please everyone. 2. You will never please no one.
