Mean People
meanSick of caustic, nasty, mean, comments on the DWF? It's time to tune them out!

After reviewing content filters on sites ranging from Boingboing.net to Whitehouse.gov, this week, the DWF debut's a new content filter that allows YOU to decide whether you'll see comments that some members find insulting or objectionable.

Of course, our volunteer moderators are on the job (removing an average of 1.5 posts per day). They'll continue to delete posts that violate DWF rules. Your new content filter allows you to tune out nasty posts that DON'T violate any rules. Or don't tune them out-it's your choice. The best part is it only takes two clicks to set up the filter..

 

Star Wars Boudoir
starThere are umpti-million fantasy themes a boudoir client can roll with.

DWF Pro member Jen Williams shot a session with a client who decided to go Star Wars. We're not talking a Chewbacca costume. Princess Leia in chains? Nope.

Holster your lightsaber and head to the DWF PRO Boudoir Forum for a look..

 

Jerry Takes Paris. London. Florence.
jerryMany say that Jerry Ghionis is the greatest wedding photographer in the world. Which makes it big news that he's announced a series of up-close and personal workshops:

You'll spend 5 days learning how to take your business and photography to the next level, in Jerry's straight forward, straight from the heart, inspirational style.

Three seminars: Florence, Italy starting June 22nd, Paris starting June 29th and London starting July 13th. Check them out now, because they start next month, and attendance is strictly limited to 20 students per class.

 

Ghionis Shoots Wife
jerryJerry Ghionis has shot hundreds of weddings, but we're told his beautiful wife, Georgina hadn't posed for him in 15 years.

Thank goodness she finally did, along with our own Melissa Tirado! Jerry has posted some absolutely stunning images from the shoot in the DWF Pro Art Forum.

Warning: These images are smouldering hot.
