ot really the "girl next door" so much as the beautiful woman next door. Alyssa is clearly a natural beauty. Call me old fashioned, but I find it hot that she is not adorned with "distractions" (tattoos), especially a large one across her lower back.

For her gallery "Green Dress," at left, I surrounded Alyssa with light. I usually make kitchens bright, but for Alyssa in her dress, a more sultry mood seemed appropriate.

Alyssa stands out against the darker background, even with her dark tan.
