True, the side by side clothed/naked portrait device is one we've seen before. But what, you think we're going to turn down Richard Kern's photos of cute girls? Um, think again, folks. Think again.

We'd tell you more, but it just sounds so much better coming from Zaida herself. Take a look at her video below.

The video tackles quite a few difficult questions—like whether Brazil is a conservative or liberal country—but leaves the most important one unanswered. Namely: will Richard Kern ever leave Brazil? We've seen the women, people. If we were Kern, we'd do everything in our power to stay forever.

Not that we blame him, really—heck, we'd go all the way down to Antarctica if it meant the chance to hang out with a girl like Fernanda (though, of course, it'd be a lot harder to coordinate a topless photo shoot in Antarctica... so maybe it makes more sense to stick to Brazil).

This two part episode is easily one of our favorites. While Richard captures Hugo's lovely curves with his camera, the topic of conversation veers towards the topic of internet porn, and all the wonderful effects it can have on a budding sexuality (or even one in full bloom)—which, as you might have guessed, holds a particular interest for us.

Oh, and Richard? We're sorry to tell you this, but someone's already beaten you to the toothbrushing fetish thing.

As Kern points out in the video, there aren't that many girls who wear garter belts on a daily basis; so its a special little pleasure seeing a girl who just happens to have fancy panties lying around the house. And, of course, the fact that she designed those fancy panties herself just makes us even more impressed. When we're not totally distracted by her boobs, at least.

We'd wager the fact that she smokes pot and talks openly about sex doesn't hurt, either. It's certainly won her some points with with us (especially since she also happens to be super cute).

The latest installment of VBS.tv's behind-the-scenes look at photographer Richard Kern's working methods poses a provocative question: "What is British, has four legs, four boobs, is best friends, and is super cute?" We won't spoil the suspense by revealing the answer ourselves, but it does involve Gina and Leah demonstrating their mutual affection for each other (and each other's breasts) in all sorts of interesting ways, and it isn't hard to guess what develops when they get together to celebrate their special relationship for Kern's camera. But maybe you should watch the video yourselves to make sure you don't miss anything. (Who ever said that Friendster is past its prime anyway?)

You'd think that watching as many behind-the-scenes shoots as we do would take something away from the magic and mystery of the pornographic experience, but the truth is that we're always curious to see artists we admire in action, and following along with their creative process deepens our appreciation of all the hot naked flesh they've worked so hard to present us. So we're grateful to our pals at Fluffy Lychees for pointing us in the direction of this set of clips from a recent VBS.tv series on master skin photographer Richard Kern, who's work we've always been huge fans of here at Fleshbot—and who we're now more jealous of than ever after seeing the extent to which his job entails getting models to rub lotion all over their boobs and spread their legs a little wider so he can get a better upskirt shot while lying on the floor beneath them. Aside from being a talented artist, the guy clearly has a charmed life.
