I have to say, Lanita is a consummate professional. She came to the shoot dealing with a few personal issues. She smiled and said,” No I’m fine, Let’s do it.” It was like she flipped a switch and focused strictly on the shoot. She smiled and danced some as the jazz music switched between swing and some soulful sounds, the dance choreographer came out and she began to loosen up.

Since you were last featured on our site how have things been for you? Since I was last featured I’ve just been trying to concentrate on my brand and focusing on things that really matter. I’ve started working on my website and getting fit; living a healthy life.
What was your inspiration for this shoot? Well Solomon and I were both just kicking around the Idea of old school, soulful black women. How back in the 60’s & 70’s you would see images of nude of semi nude black women every where. Just being , Ya know beautiful. So we went from there. Plus for me I’m not a teeny-bopper any more I wanted to do things like this that spoke to the mature taste of my fan base and myself.
How was it working with this photographer? Solomon Abrams is so fun to work with. We met at a super shoot a couple years back and he was just fun and professional. I have always liked his creativity and his ideas. And even though we were doing bondage he wasn’t creepy or pervy like some photographers can be. He had me cracking up the whole time.
What were some challenges that you faced during this shoot? Not so much this theme but we shot the knotty girl bondage theme first and I had to get used to the collar, the rope and the arm binder things. It was exciting not being able to move. Lol gotta find out where he got that stuff… Lol
What can your fans expect from you in the future?
My fans can expect more of me. More sexy and mature themes. A lot of people have asked about different things like posters and prints to buy or if I webcamed and I’m going to do more of that.
