You should explain that the photo's are marred by the excess use of clothing and that you should advise on areas where reductions can be made

Thats extremely unreasonable of her when i'm sure theres things you could tweak a bit to improve the pictures somewhat.

Insist you are only there to hold things and won't look. A voluntary blindfold may help.

It's probably because she doesn't want your grubby builders mitts adjusting the straps and dirtying them.
BTW how have you managed to keep the build from her so far? Does she think you are out doing "jobs" or what?
I think we should be told!!
Cheers, Pewe

Cheers, Pewe
its not that i'm keeping the build from her as much as there were a few ground rules layed down when i suggested that i might at some time
consider thinking about building a locost.
1) it must not take me away from family time
2) it must not take any money from the family pot
3) it should not do me any permenant injury (either during the build or after)
4) i should not spend all night on the computer "researching" things on the computer when i should be being romantic with her
other than that i can do anything with the car except for rule 5 which strictly dictates that neither our drive or garden should display signs of a
car being built which wouldn't be too bad if i had a garage

My wife organised herself a boudoir shoot for my anniversary, I ended up with a photo album and 4 cd's of pics as a present, considering your
mrs is a photographer, I reckon thats just plain lazy,

So it's a yes to all the "ground rules" 'cos once the build has started it's a different ball-game.
Also as her business looks like it's going to fly she'll be needing a studio with lots of space - won't she ?
Cheers, Pewe 
PS her work is deffo impressive.

i have already built her the studio so there is one bargaining tool thrown out. and the work is flooding in at the mo. with a bit of luck, her
business will grow to the point where we need to sort a seperate premesis (possibly high street) where there will be a little bit of space left to one
side for me and the car. until then its building it in my shed at work 1/2 hour at a time
