Dagmar Rose, Notes From Amsterdam
Dutch Beauty
….. The trip to Amsterdam was winding down after several days of continuous shooting. I arranged my schedule so that I could take the last couple of days off to relax with friends before heading back to the states. It just so happened that on my day off, a huge soccer match was being played in town. Everybody was in a good mood in anticipation of the colossal sporting event. If you have never been to Holland during a Champions League match, its like a Major League playoff baseball game in the states, but way more intense. There was a heightened sense of national pride in the atmosphere while most of the country stopped everything they were doing to watch the contest on television.
I decided to return to a sports bar that I had visited on a prior trip, where I could get a good bite to eat, enjoy the match and throw down a few Heineken’s in between the roar of the crowd. I also recalled the last time I visited just a few months earlier, the bartender was gorgeous and my instincts were telling me she would be a welcomed addition to the pages of Penthouse magazine.
As I entered the establishment I was in luck, there she was again. I noticed the pale skin, long blond curly hair through the thick smoke filled atmosphere. The raucous mostly male crowd, hardly seemed to take notice of the native beauty. I meandered towards the bar where she was serving and grabbed the last seat available just as the match began.
After a few moments she approached and immediately recognized me from the last time I visited. This time we exchanged pleasantries and I learned her name, Dagmar Rose.
Dagmar was friendly like most of the Dutch women that I have encountered in the past. I explained to her that I was a photographer and producer for Penthouse America and proceeded to show her a portfolio of sample images on my cell phone. Cellular internet access is a very useful tool for the traveling photographer. She was impressed and agreed to meet me at my hotel for a sitting after work.
After the match, I quickly rushed back to my hotel suite to prepare the room and my equipment for her arrival.
Dagmar’s shapely figure is a result of many years of classical training in dance, her true passion.
I look forward to many more shoots with Dagmar Rose……..TW
