I have a question. Did she disguise herself to you
any more than she disguised herself to herself?

Yes, and I would guess that these nudes

Hot—because—of heat.

But I never saw any portfolio with head-shots or shots
where Laura wriggled on a stool in clothes
that showed her off to her best advantage.
