So, I feel like now is a perfect time to remind people that the people I work with do so willingly, and the poses and situations they enter into, they do so of their own free volition. I in no way coerced J to strip down to her frilly nothings and stand beside the Wapiti River south of Grande Prairie on a winter’s day when the sun was so low it never crested the top of the river valley. She is a brave soul for a variety of reasons, not the least of which was standing out there in the cold.
