It took me a bit of convincing to feature galleries from Abby Winters again. They have just updated their entire website, and removed a lot of elements that I found objectionable in the past. You'll probably see a fair amount of galleries from there from now on. Not exactly for the sake of Abby, but for the sake of those wonderful young women who show an extraordinary amount of courage in the process of discovering themselves and redefining beauty for the world.
There are models who became photographers and staff members. They have redefined Abby Winters and made it the successful website that it is today.
Those are "ordinary" young women who radiate energy, fun, confidence, and self-respect. They walk into a place with the decision to share their beauty with the world. Some of them don't see what the big deal is, others do know that they're changing the world. They populate the canvas of an alternative reality that is both innocent - and at times sexual, a reality without bigotry that many people long for.

I don't really know if those are stereotypes, but they're pretty harmless - I haven't mentioned vegemite after all.
This set is full of sunshine, beauty, and a very pretty young woman who has appeared more than once at Abby Winters. I am certainly glad that she has graced GN with her beauty. She's admirably confident with a magical spirit that she endows on the entire set. It's simply awe-inspiring.
