I was shooting backstage at the 2005 Europa Pro in Texas and in walked Valerie Waugaman. I had never seen her before, thought she looked spectacular and invited her to come to Los Angeles for a photo session. After we did the photos, I showed them to Iron Man and Valerie was immediately scheduled for the February, 2006 issue. All well and good - NOT! Due to circumstances and a clerical error - but totally unintentional - the magazine was sent to the printer with the photos credited to photographer and co-publisher of Iron Man Mike Neveaux!
BUMMER! But Iron Man did a great job on the pictures and this is one of the best layouts I've had published since my Flex centerfolds "back in the day." So, by all means, take a look at the photos and enjoy them. Just program your consciousness so that when you see "photos by Mike Neveaux" you mentally substitute "PHOTOS BY BILL DOBBINS."
And if you like the Valerie pictures, you ain't seen nothing yet. Check out all hundred-plus pictures from my Valerie shoot in the subscriber area of this website.
