Kelly Jo Eriksen

Modeling Appreciation

American glamour model Kelly Jo Eriksen was born on May 16, 1976, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Raised on the East Coast, she developed an early interest in modeling and visual presentation.

Kelly Jo is known for her classic glamour look, standing 5'9" with blonde hair and green eyes. Her physical profile—often cited as approximately 34-27-36—helped position her within the glamour and adult modeling space, where presentation and aesthetic consistency play a central role.

Her career began gaining traction in 2009, notably with her participation in Playboy’s Indianapolis Casting Call, which became one of her earliest credited appearances. From there, she built a portfolio that included features across Playboy-affiliated platforms such as Playboy Cyber Club, Voluptuous Vixens, and Playboy’s Wet & Wild.

Kelly Jo's work also extended to appearances on Playboy TV and promotional segments, helping her establish a presence within that brand’s network. Her ModelMayhem profile reflects her stated goal of connecting with photographers for publication opportunities, emphasizing glamour as her specialty and expressing openness to creative collaborations.

In the years that followed, she continued working with photographers and independent studios, including projects with Wilder Amaginations, with activity documented into the mid-2010s. Her career reflects a model navigating both traditional publication routes and the more decentralized, online-driven modeling landscape.

Thomas Wedgwood

Photography Appreciation

Thomas Wedgwood was born on May 14, 1771, in Etruria, into the prominent Wedgwood pottery family. He was the son of industrialist Josiah Wedgwood, whose scientific curiosity and innovation influenced Thomas from an early age.

Although he did not follow a formal academic path due to chronic health issues, Wedgwood was well educated through private study and intellectual circles that included leading thinkers of the time, such as Humphry Davy. His upbringing placed him at the intersection of art, science, and experimentation—conditions that would shape his later work.

Wedgwood is widely regarded as one of the earliest pioneers of photography, though he never achieved a fully practical photographic process. Around the 1790s, he began experimenting with light-sensitive chemicals, particularly silver nitrate, applied to paper and leather. By placing objects like leaves or small items directly onto these treated surfaces and exposing them to light, he produced silhouette images known today as photograms. He also attempted to capture images using a camera obscura, but struggled with a critical limitation: he could not “fix” the images to prevent them from fading when exposed to light.

Despite this limitation, Wedgwood’s experiments marked a turning point in the development of photography, later influencing figures such as William Henry Fox Talbot. His work was documented and promoted by Humphry Davy in an 1802 paper, which remains one of the earliest written accounts of photographic experimentation.
